      I liked the wrapping .. gives you tinder to use after you enjoy the pemmican

    A small word of caution. If you are wanting the pemmican to be shelf stable for long periods then use only DRIED berry's and fruit. It you are going to enjoy within a couple weeks then fresh berry's and nuts are ok. --- Fresh fruit contains sugar and nuts contain oil. Both detrimental to LONG term storage. I am 77 years old and have been making this stuff since I was 13 years old. Grandma was a real pioneer and relied on this stuff to feed her family when weather was bad.

    Dave way back when Mammoths roamed the open steppe when I was a child we made pemmican with dried local berries and pecans. We melted our tallow in a pot and then laddled melted tallow in as we mixed the dried ground ingredients. We rolled it into a snake then cut that into 4 to 5 inch bars then wrapped them pretty much like you did.

    For a mold, I think I've finally found use for the mini ice cube trays. They are for making 3/8-ish cubes because some people are to lazy to crush ice for cocktails. Pemmican bits the size of bullion cubes.

    When I was a boy my dad told me about pemmican him and his father found back in the 1940's wrapped in deer hide at the base of a tree they were removing on the farm, he had no idea how long it was there for but said it was still good when they opened it up. A few years ago I made my own batch of beef & beef berries and greens I dried and ground everything used the tallow I made and I tell you what, I lived off that primarily with some carbs added on with each portion I ate for three days, I felt full and had energy every day. I didn't need much to maintain my energy levels either. Great long term food source that can be made in many different ways meeting our different tastes and nutrition requirements. Good video Dave, I always look forward to your content

    On a brighter note, we just moved to the (more) free United States. I was finally able to get my family out of California. Hunting may be in the works in the next few years. I'm seriously looking forward to that.

    Great video. Read a story years ago in a mag about making "field expedient pemmican" (my words) 1 pound cooked hamburger, 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup blueberries, and a handful of walnuts. Knead and mix in a zip lock plastic bag. Grab and go! Instant energy on the go. It supposedly tasted pretty good, but the texture was "different". I believe it was meant to be consumed the same day. Unlike real pemmican!

    We have no idea what pemmican was until we saw your "cooking show".! Now knowing that it has been around as long and as old as Corporal Corner, us old dogs can still be taught a thing or two..!! we probably has something similar but call it something else but nevertheless definitely learned something new. So reckon there will be more Pathfinder Cooking Show in 2022? It has to be good to be competitive with Corporal's recipe..!! Thank you for sharing. Stay safe folks.

Thank you for finally putting this elusive blast from the past into my mental quiver. Any idea how many calories each one of those bars would be, or how many a day would keep you going if that's all you had? I've made sea biscuits before, and now really want to try this!

    @chapter4travels 2 года назад +11

    What everybody leaves out about pemmican is that it was very much a soup or stew starter or base. You would forage anything you could find along the trail, mushrooms, onions, herbs, roots, etc and make a stew with pemmican as the base. It was only eaten plain when there was just nothing to make with it.

      Even dry roasted peanuts develop a very bitter smell and flavour if not eaten within a certain date so I agree. Wonder if the tallow somehow preserves the nuts and keeps them from oxidizing.....

    Happy New Year. In making the pemmican,, a brittle jerky is made. Now with the jerky, in making pemmican, can one add spices to the jerky? As an example: salt, pepper, chili, maybe soy or teriyaki, and or brown sugar. And instead of making standard jerky and in use of making pemmican would these additions reduce shelf life. I noticed you added apples and they have natural sugars within them. Thanks for considering my question.

  • @paulschwartz2464

    • @keftonbrown1460
