Fun tip about roasting the pumpkin seeds: you leave the fibers on the seeds. They soak up the flavor of the seasoning and get crispy just like the seeds!
That's a great tip, thanks. The shells of mine always come out soft as to wear they won't split in half in order to get the whole seed. I recently saw someone toss them lightly in oil before baking. In all my years why haven't I thought of that? LOL Since I have two great tips now I will use both because I really like pumpkin seeds. Thanks again ladies 🎃🎃
What I absolutely love about this video is how you show the “less than perfect” attempts at the apples and popcorn balls. So many creators will only show the final result and it’s refreshing to see one that feels so much more personal. I can’t wait for this year’s content 🧡
My beautiful Mum used to read the coffee grounds from our Greek AKA Turkish coffee and what we used to do was when you finished the coffee leaving just the grounds, tip the cup over onto the saucer and then turn it three times clockwise. She would then let it rest for a couple of minutes then turn the cup back over and she was amazing at reading those coffee grounds! 💜💜💜 I really enjoyed your video, because it's so down-to-earth and charming and I got some good tips for my next celebration. Thank you.
my grandmother used to make popcorn balls for trick'or' treaters up until I think 1994, maybe she stopped in 1990, she never stopped making them for halloween, but stopped for trick'or'treaters around that time because that was about the time it was seen as not just improper but maybe even dangerous to make homemade treats or accept homemade treats from trick'or'treating
Every year I just miss the Halloween magic of neighbors who make treats to hand out to trick or treaters. I understand how dangerous it is now. But it was always so much fun to get the candy apples, popcorn balls, and cookies.
We had a neighbor who made cookies for the kids she knew. She would ask me if my grandkids were coming over yo trick or treat. And left them 4 cookies each. They loved it.
You know, it's really awesome how much of our history, and the flavor therein, has been preserved by this matriarchal passing of recipes. This video makes me wanna try every "spell" in your book! Great video! Awesome channel. Subscribed. 🎉
My 4 year old absolutely loves your videos! We watch them every morning while I brush her hair. She was enthralled with the candy apples short and asked if we could make them. We eagerly awaited this video and the recipe and are making candy apples today! Thanks for sharing the videos and your process!
I have only just found your channel. I love it! I was wondering if you list the books that you reference anywhere? I love to collect period books on cooking, housekeeping and beauty. Keep making fabulous videos 😊
This was really interesting and fun to watch. I also appreciated that you showed when things went wrong and what you might change- so many channels just show perfect finished products and not everything in between!
I love Indian pudding. Anything with cornmeal and/or molasses. I definitely make it sweeter more like a dessert pudding with ice cream or sweet cream on top. 🤤yes ma’am. This was an inspirational video. I also love Halloween
Thank you for a beautiful video! I enjoyed every minute of it, but my favorite is seeing that gorgeous apple tree! I dearly love apples, and it was just so stunning with the ruby red gems hanging amongst the emerald green leaves. Here in FL, I love the wildness of Summer, but when October 1st rolls around, it signals to me the lovely season of Fall is coming. Thank you again AND have a great week! 😊💖🙏🏻🌻
Next time stuff your pumpkins with cooked millet, copped nuts raisins and cinnamon sugar 😋. Cornmeal is an odd food source to stuff a pumpkin. So this halloween try this recipe. Hope you like it. I love watching you cook and work and walk around your gardens and the cats❤❤
I remember my mom making Indian pudding. I think she used the Fanny Farmer cookbook, which called for cinnamon and nutmeg. I loved your video, it put me in the mood for Halloween 🎃
Love this video!! I’m from Massachusetts and Indian Pudding is my favorite dessert ever!! So excited to see it here :) we always have it with vanilla ice cream 💕 and made with butter (and maybe more molasses? It’s really sweet) - so good!!
Everything looked beautiful, if not delicious. In my mind it tasted great. Thank you. (Cooking is hard I have been doing it for decades. To me, making candy is the hardest. Don't give up you will get there. It just takes lots of practice.) Enjoy your Halloween.
I absolutely loved this episode! I only just discovered your channel ~a week ago. Love historical recipes and your approach to researching them. Also great evironment(s) clothes, and music...!!❤
I loved this video! I always love learning more about the Victorian period and their halloween traditions, thank you for the history and delightful treats 🎃 💛
I love Indian pudding. I never made it in a pumpkin. It is sooooo delicious. I make it all the time. It’s good warm with ice cream like an A La mode. I love Halloween Samhain season. It gives me all the feels I enjoy. Thank you.
Love the recipes. Have made popcorn balls before, with marshmallows, almost like making Rice Krispies. I’d like to try the Indian Pudding Interesting about how the Victorians and the Edwardians celebrated All Hallows Eve. I personally don’t celebrate it, however, it was something new to learn about. I celebrate the bounty of harvest God supplies us with, for He is the creator of all. Every time your husband was shown around the bonfire, (No disrespect) I saw him as Groot from the Marvel Comics! 🤭
This was a fabulous video! It was in my recommended videos and now I'm a subscriber. I think another thing to consider with the po0corn balls, in addition to the things already mestoned, is it think you are compressing them way too much. You are sorry of taking out the lofty airlines if them. If you squish the popcorn down, there is no recipe that will make them taste good.
Just saw this!! Shared it with my daughter. Y’all remind me of us, the way you interact. ❤And, we both love the Victorian and Edwardian eras, as well as the Monarchs, and absolutely LOVE autumn and Halloween 🎃. Your little kitchen mishaps, like me also lol. I’m just wondering…the way you pronounced Celtic? I always thought it was with a k sound when referring to person lineage or traditions? S sound for athletic teams? I could be wrong. Idk Anyway, DELIGHTFUL VIDEO! New follower. Best of luck in your fun journey❤
I have made popcorn balls before! I haven't made them in a decade and forget how I did it. I seriously love how you test things out and attempt to make things as an experiment. I loved the history with these so much!!! That pumpkin recipe looks so good! I'm sorry you had so many "okay" or things that didn't come out as you hoped in this experiment. My parents used to have parties at their house around Halloween, yet we didn't celebrate it, which is interesting, but people would dress up, and I remember we had the apple on a string game haha. They stopped doing those parties by the time I was five. Booooo.
Haha! It sounds like the parties were fun while they lasted!! 🎃 Thank you. It’s been really fun to just experiment and not develop recipes to share for a change. I’m having a blast! It’s also been fun to semi share how recipes are made/developed 😊
Fun video! May I suggest trying to find a recipe for caramel corn? I find it far more satisfying than popcorn balls. It is hard for me to find beef suet nowadays as it is hard to find a real butcher that even knows what I am talking about. A necessary ingredient for the family mincemeat recipe, it has to be the crumbly fat from around the kidneys. I think butter is a better choice for your Indian corn pudding. Maybe next year you can find old recipes for soul cakes!
My mom made these all the time. She used beet juice to make the color of the apples. Glad you did it twice, youll have learned lots from it for next time. the popcorn balls were made out of molasses and corn syrup, and were very chewy. try another recipy.
Hello! So nice to watch this! Right on time to get in a cozy weekend mode 🧡 I would love to be able to film my videos in a kitchen that's not our daily kitchen, where a bomb explodes everyday 😂 I love your decoration, and by the way- tomorrow we'll have porridge with the ever best peach and maple syrup compote! Thank you for all your recipes 😊
Oh I can only imagine how stressful that must be. I’m sorry that is happening to you! ❤️ Thank you so much for your kind words and I’m so glad you enjoyed watching 🥰
Lovely! maybe the recipes didn turn well but they look yummi 🥰 but i really think it would b nice idea to make mini popcorn balls on a stick:) im gonna try it for my kids) Thank you🌻🌻🌻🌻
We make candy apples the same way. Twice at a minimum just to get it right. 😂 I also really thought when you said a glass of wine in your ingredients that like me, the wine was to drink while you cook 😂 this is such a fun watch.
Oh my! I love your channel as I was sure I would. I found you through the lovely Diane Schiffer. I love your videography and kitchen and table design. Beautiful. The video of you and your husband in silhouette dancing near the fire was magical. As someone who has cousins who live in Ireland and my best friend was born there, I'd just ask you pronounce "Celtic" not like the Boston Basketball team (who knows what they were thinking??!!😋) but like the Irish pronounce it themselves. With the "C" pronounced like the "c" in the word "cake". I realize that the pronunciation in this country varies, but, in this part of the word, where more people are first second or third generation Irish, the hard C is preferred. ❣👍 You've inspired me to try some new recipes. I'm interested in the Indian pudding. I think you're right, butter would've been better. Apparently it's almost impossible to find real suet (except for birds!) in the States. It's a particular fat from cows or sheep from around their kidneys and isn't "drippings" from cooking! Of course you know this, I just couldn't help researching that as I didn't know what suet actually is. Several sites recommended Crisco as a substitute for similar taste and texture, but of course a lot of us have avoided it as it contains transfers. Oh well, Hey, on another note, I liked your candy apples with bubbles! It made a really interested texture! I appreciate you sharing your trials and errors. Most people don't and it's reassuring that we call find us up against wonky recipes sometimes. Happy Autumn and Samhain to you and your family! 🍁🌻❣🎃

I understand how dangerous it is now. But it was always so much fun to get the candy apples, popcorn balls, and cookies.
My best memories was the retired school teacher who gave them out in the early 80s in my town. I still think of her.
We had a neighbor who made cookies for the kids she knew. She would ask me if my grandkids were coming over yo trick or treat. And left them 4 cookies each. They loved it.
I love that you show when things dont go perfectly! You are a breath of fresh air and so enjoyable to watch!
Thank you so much 🥹

@@underatinroofThey turned out great!
Your kitty's are just beautiful. This was a lovely video to watch. ❤
I love this video. I really like that you include the mistakes and the corrections.
What a fun episode 🎃
Just the video I was looking for!❤
This was so charming! I loved every minute of this video!
Barley Malt Syrup makes great popcorn balls and it is a 'slow-burn' healthy sweetener. My kids love them! (Eden Foods Organic Syrup Barley Malt )
I have only just found your channel. I love it! I was wondering if you list the books that you reference anywhere? I love to collect period books on cooking, housekeeping and beauty. Keep making fabulous videos 😊
This is so charming, I absolutely long for this type of life.

24:10 love watching you set up the display, reminds me of setting up my own photoshoots which is such a fun process

I really enjoyed this. You did the research, didn't give up on the recipes, it was funny and i thought it was so cute the your husband joined in.
Thank you so very much for this!

😋. Cornmeal is an odd food source to stuff a pumpkin. So this halloween try this recipe. Hope you like it. I love watching you cook and work and walk around your gardens and the cats❤❤
Only odd if you're not from the South.
@@MountainGyspy or Native American...
Hmmm, if you add a wee bit of pumpkin puree and bean paste to the corn pudding, it could be a 3 Sister's Pudding! They were so adorable!
I remember my mom making Indian pudding. I think she used the Fanny Farmer cookbook, which called for cinnamon and nutmeg. I loved your video, it put me in the mood for Halloween 🎃

I'm so glad you showed what didn't work out great. Those were my favorite parts.
My granny made sorghum syrup popcorn balls. We love sorghum here in Appalachia and the syrup is a good alternative to corn syrup.
love your burnt orange colored apron!
What nice video, I'm looking forward to the next one.
Thank you very much! 🥰❤️
That was fun! I love your commitment to keeping things authentic.

I yearn for this lifestyle instead of a bar with a bad DJ. Please can we bring this back

Absolutely love this video!! Thank you for all the awesome information. So fun!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it 🥰
This was so much fun to watch! Wish we had small pumpkins in 🇿🇦 so I could try the puddings!
They can be baked in a regular baking pan! 🥰

We always made popcorn balls with molasses, not corn syrup. You might try that, but it is still a bit sticky. Love, Love, Love Your Channel!!!
What is the song in the background at 4:15?

Our popcorn balls always had molasses in them.
You have the most beautiful complexion 😊
"Ye olde phone" 😂😂
I wonder if "mini pumpkins" meant what we call pie pumpkins.
Bonfires were popular during victorian halloween. Halloween wasnt a really big deal like it is now.
Who in their right mind advice to cool down melted sugar?! Emma, shame on you! You've done great sweetheart.

Lovely! maybe the recipes didn turn well but they look yummi 🥰 but i really think it would b nice idea to make mini popcorn balls on a stick:) im gonna try it for my kids) Thank you🌻🌻🌻🌻
I tried eating a candied apple once and my teeth got stuck in the candy so bad that hot water had to be applied to get it loose. Never again.
We make candy apples the same way. Twice at a minimum just to get it right. 😂
I also really thought when you said a glass of wine in your ingredients that like me, the wine was to drink while you cook 😂 this is such a fun watch.

I think you should have read your tea leaves before trying those recipes maybe the leaves would have warned you of their outcome!
Lástima que no tiene subtitulo en español porque no entendí nada lo que hacia con la mamá...igual me pareció un video hermoso
Ellas están leyendo hojas de té en la taza.
It's not seltic It's Celtic with a hard K that's how it's pronounced
Wrong type of tea girls! Your suppose to use like black tea
It was going very nice until the witchcraft start.. unfortunately
Why don’t you share vintage Christmas era? You ladies are practising witchcraft.
Witchcraft, indeed! What is Halloween without a bit of harmless witchcraft? Plus, you do know that Christmas has pagan rituals, as well?
