Great video!! Thank you❤.....can we all please take a minute to appreciate staceys blue nails!!! They look awesome. Also, ur looking extra pretty today, all that blue is making ur eyes pop...stunning xx
I commented the same thing. It's like a duck egg blue, just gorgeous on Stacey.
Nails noticed what a nice colour🥰
Yes when I had $ used to get my nails done and loved that shade which was called resting beach face 🤣 was one of my favourites.
So true. Her eyes are gorgeous, so striking.
Thank you so much! *stacey blushes
A big shout out to the viewer who walked us through her kitchen! I think it’s a fun idea Stacey to include more of these special peeks on your channel, as and when! Thank you both muchly. 👩🍳🙏
Thanks so much, really glad you enjoyed it 🙂
How encouraging it is to see someone put so much thought and pride into her pantry. Thanks for sharing.
I think this is a fabulous idea for a series. I look forward to more of it.
Also, I want to say, you are such a lovely person, not only your looks but your demeanor.
Thank-you for the pantry comment, I know it's a little old fashioned but I do like to take care of our home. Although I have to admit, knowing Stacey would be looking I did give it a bit of a spruce up! 🙂
Thanks so much :-)
@@nzmoneykarma your pantry is beautiful. Although it’s nice for a spruce up what’s more important is that ability to feed your family well. That’s what I saw. Old fashioned or not, I like to be able to feed my husband and I well. Thank you for letting Stacey highlight your pantry.
@@Mel-vu9ss Thank you x
I didn't know you could freeze Camebert - another thing I have learnt today. Thanks Stace❤
Stacey, there is a budget advisor who is very well known in NZ. Giving others advise and she is bankrupt because she lived an excessive life with minimal financial income. She is still giving out advise. And selling that advice. SHE is a scammer. YOU are the real deal and your viewers so appreciate your hard work and honesty. Love your channel and guidance. Thank you.
You are awesome Stacey and so is this video! That mustard looks the bomb! I cant wait to have a crack at making it. Viewers Kitchen is such a fantastic idea!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love NZ/Kiwi RUclips channels. Maybe we could all list the channels we know in another video. Pomarie/goodnight.

Would like to add what I do for freezing meat that I found to be a big money saver. I used to spend big money to wrap meat for the freezer. That’s until I discovered what here is called “Press and seal”. Comes in a roll and basically just tear off a sheet large enough to fold over the portion completely. Then press out all the air as you fold it. Then I store those portions into a large freezer storage bag. The meet seems to taste much fresher now. And now that the meat isn’t touching the inside of the bag, no washing is needed to reuse the bags. So I save money on freezer bags too. 😁
Would glad wrap do the trick
@@susannordstrom5065 I guess that would work in a pinch if you rolled the meat into it pushing the air out. But the press and seal is much easier and stays sealed where as I find that regular plastic wrap doesn’t.
@@jeandigshistory never heard of press and seal, sounds good though
Is it at the supermarket
@@susannordstrom5065 Yes..Here it is in the same isle as the freezer bags, aluminum foil, and parchment paper.
Another great video! You know you have peaked our interest when we nod and answer out loud! 😅 My husband smiles and says, you watching Stacy? You draw us in and hold us! Thank you for your wonderful imagination that brings ordinary ingredients together! Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us. Hugs from Ohio USA
Agreed. 😊 btw...happy to see another Ohioan in here
Oh thank you! That is so nice to hear :-)
Hi Stacey - I always make a year’s supply of pesto from my basil, garlic, lemon juice and chillies from the garden plus nuts & cheese from a shop. I simply make the pesto put in glass jars and freeze. They come out perfect for the year ahead.
Me too!
I MADE the mustard❣️ Thank you, Stacey. Its delicious 😋
Great vid, always good to see what others are doing. I'm organic, so always buy in bulk to keep prices down and what I cant buy in bulk I buy in glass, so like Money Karma everything I store is in glass, in fact I will often buy a product because of the jar. I also weekly go through specials from IGA, Coles and Woolies and only buy there 1/2 price specials, which is a great way to stock up on non perishables. fortunately I have being putting aside food for years, so there is no pressure to buy anything unless it is well discounted. Just wanted to add that its actually 2 tsps baking powder to 1 cup of flour to make S.R flour. You are looking really great Stacey, keep up the fantastic work.
I'm always on the look out for some giant agee jars in the second hand shops but haven't some across anything as yet. I would love to get to the stage where I am only buying the specials but I'm a way off yet!
Dear Stacey, about freezing Pesto! I went to a baby store and purchased those wee containers that you freeze baby food in. They make a perfect amount for most recipe. They have the soft bottoms that you can push the pucks out into Ziplocs and Voila you just pull one or two out whenever you need them! I make my own mustard but I add Whiskey, hubby has it with steak, blue cheese (his fave) and cold cuts. It also makes a lovely gift to give to friends and family. ❤️❤️❤️
Great tips about the containers - I love basil pesto with pasta while I have it in my garden + the whiskey for the mustard - noice!! I'm going to try that too :)
A few suggestions....
Store whole wheat flour in the freezer unless you use it up quickly. Whole wheat flour can turn rancid very quickly. Just take out what you need a couple of hours before using. Leftover lasagna noodles can be broken up and used to make lasagna soup. Yeast should be stored in the freezer. You can use it straight from the freezer with no issues.
To help avoid weevils, when you bring flour in from the store, place it in the freezer for several days. Bring out the bag and let it sit on the counter for a day to come back to room temperature then store as usual. This will kill off any possible pest eggs that might be in it.
Check RUclips for bread that's made from lentils for a way to use them up.
The onions that are sprouting can be chopped up and frozen to keep them from spoiling.
Love your pantry! I strive for that type of organization but it never becomes reality 😔.
Have a blessed day 💕
Thanks for those idea's 🙂
Wouldn’t have ever thought of making mustard. I always thought it would be more complicated! As it’s getting so expensive to buy now I’m going to give this a go. Thanks Stacey!
What a brilliant idea for a series, I love how you can look at ingredients and come up with ideas without breaking a sweat. I really need to relearn that skill which i am just watching your videos..... You are awesome, thanks for just being YOU!!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Stacey did such a great job- I'm looking forward to the cowboy beans recipe. Sometimes I open my pantry and just stare and think "what on earth am I going to make"!
@@nzmoneykarma I know right, its a real skill that some ppl just naturally have. I dont think my brain is wired that way, i would rather be doing crafty things than making the daily whats for dinner food decisions LOL but we all needs to eat.... so learn i must haha
@@mrspickle8285 Yeah it is a real skill. I have an Aunty like this as well, you know when 10 extra people turn up unannounced for dinner and she somehow manages to make the meal bigger by magic and it's still delicious!
@@nzmoneykarma YES!!! its pure wizardry one of my girlfriends is the same, she can make and do anything.... thank the goddess we have Stacey to help us muggles learn the skills to thinking outside the box.....:)
Thanks so much and I am so pleased you enjoyed the video. I came here to say, anyone can learn to cook like this. I would look into a cupboard as well and scratch my head. I think it stems from learning to trust yourself and make as many meals as you can without recipes. It's the only way to learn and practice your skills of cooking on the fly. I hope that all makes some sense :-)
I love the pantry idea but just not my pantry...I don't know what we might find in there.😂
Haha, I did make a special effort knowing that Stacey would be looking at it along with all her youtube friends!
@@nzmoneykarma Thank you, that makes me feel a little bit better. 🤭
You are still very organised though and it was a pleasure to see. Very admirable and so healthy. Well done.👍😊
@@judyward4602 Thank you ☺
Awweee missed a live by a few minutes. Off to work in a moment. We put cinnamon sticks around the cabinets here to keep bugs out. Added benefit is that it smells nice. Also cloves work to get rid of bugs. Love the nails!
Okay so now I am inspired to re-tidy my pantry and fridge. I start off well, then get lazy and just chuck stuff back in lol. I just got given a label machine so going to put labels face forward to assist my family on where to put stuff back again too once I tidied things up again. Great vid ladies.
Thank-you! So glad you liked it 🙂
You sound like me, I got a label maker too a year ago lol and still do label. Thanks for watching.
Hi you might not see this - I found you a few months ago and can I just say that aside from being extremely helpful when it comes to budgeting I find your videos so relaxing and friendly. Some days are hard for me and I struggle to find joy, but your videos always help me feel such warmth. Thank you so much for making them x
Thank you so much, it is so nice of you to say so. I hope you are having a great day today and know that you are appreciated by me.
Loving the nails, Stacey ❣ I love any blue♥️
I loved the ‘husband wouldn’t like that’ with the grimace, I have started cooking with lentils because meat is so expensive, exactly the same here in my house so I cook a steak for husband and yet my husband has baked beans from the tin all the time, there is a great Thermomix recipe for baked beans which I love but ‘it isn’t the same’ according to husband! I have ended up with a far larger fridge freezer than two people need because our hot summers in Australia ruin many pantry items, so into the fridge they go, must start portion freezing tomato paste and curry pastes though, it’s a great idea.👍🌏
Haha, some people in my family find lentils a bit of a challenge too 🙂When my father visits he brings a mini BBQ and goes outside and cooks himself a steak for dinner🤣
Great video! I'd love to see more like this, it's given me helpful ideas for my own fridge and pantry. Love the flax baskets 😍 The dried bay leaf tip is brilliant for bags of flour. Please do make the Moroccan lamb, sounds delish. Fab blue nails today! 💙💙💙
I am really glad that you enjoyed it. Yes, I had never heard of the bay leaf trick either! I got the baskets at an Easter market in Foxton beach about 10years ago- they've lasted really well🙂
@@nzmoneykarma Thanks for sharing your pantry and fridge with us. I'm going to look out for those baskets at our local markets in Hawkes Bay 😍
This is great. What i took away from this is using the egg cartons to store the fruits and veges. Even though it looks like theres nothing in the fridge, its actually quite a bit of food that you can still make a good meal out of. Stacey, your advice is amazing and helpful. Keep up the good work 👏
It was super helpful to me- yes I hear what you are saying about the fridge looking empty- its just that its ingredients only, nothing pre-made.
@nzmoneykarma sadly, most of our fridges look bare these days. Even buying veges and fruit is expensive. That's why I love watching Stacey's videos cause she shows how to make things stretch especially with big families
Yes, please. Moroccan Dish.
@nzmoneykarma
Your pantry looks so tidy!!
I got a few tips: I use LSA as well, but found it got very expensive. I now buy the seeds separately (linseed, sunflower, and almond) and whizz them up myself. I use an old electric coffee grinder for that. It saves me SO much money!
I also keep my flours in a zip lock bag, freeze them to kill off bugs, and store them together in a big airtight container.
You can freeze your brie, but I'd put a layer of plastic around them, so they don't dry out and get crumbly! I'll be checking out your channel next...
Keen as for pickled eggs - make my own beetroot too so keen to see this video. ❤
That looks so tasty your range of products is really delightfull thank you again Carol
The Moroccan Lamb sounds wonderful!
White rice needs to be cooked & frozen flat before you use it in Chinese cooking or in barbecuing as it cooks much better on the hotplate. This was something I learned in the 1970s when I did Chinese cookery. We had to prep our rice each week before we left our class for keeping until the next week's class.
That is a great idea. We are saving for a free standing freezer- I will have to do this when I have more space.
Such a great idea doing a critic of the ladies fridge freezer pantry. This would make a great segment going forward for your channel I must say... I need to clean my fridge out and pantry after seeing the video. I have been considering a vacuum sealer for food since watching you videos. I think I found your channel a fortnight ago. Live the content and you are very natural and down to earth. Well done from your neighbour across the water in Australia.
It was fabulous to have Stacey help out. The pantry has not stayed quite this tidy, I have to admit!😆
You mention grating and freezing ginger, I guess the same goes for garlic? I've always grated it (actually very finely chopped) and covered it with olive oil in a jar.
It's easy to put however much you want into your cooking then. I must try freezing it though.
I do freeze tomato paste in ice cube trays to keep it. Again, dead easy to use as much or as little as you need.
The idea of a viewer's kitchen series seems really good to me. Cheers!
Hi Stacey good to see your subscriber numbers going up each time I look in on you. I just put SR flour on my list. I'm always confused about using bi-carb or baking powder.
Loving the condiments and pickling videos!!
Congratulations on reaching 25,000 subscribers!. Have been waiting all weekend for it to tick over. You absolutely deserve this achievement through all you hard work. Only the two of us but frozen onions, pucks, flat bags of pumpkin puree, new tips i am putting into place to make a meal more efficient to make. Thank you.
Thank you so much!!
Unrelated but the colour of your nail polish is absolutely gorgeous 😍
I was just thinking the same thing.😂
Oh thank you!
Absolutely love your channel!!! 🫵🏼🪨💯
Thank you
Hi. Venece here binge watching your videos. I live in Townsville North Queensland Australia and i enjoy the homestead/self sufficiency concept. Excellent knowledge and video Stacey. It was a very informative session as always.
Very interesting Stacey, yes please for the corned beef hash and moroccan lamb recipes😊
Don't store onions and potatoes in the same place. Onions give off ethylene gas which causes potatoes to rot early. Keep them away from each other in different cupboards.
Onions can be kept refrigerated in an airtight container, An added bonus is they don't make you cry when you peel and chop.Alternatively do as Stacey showed in an earlier video and freeze them already chopped so "you can just grab a handful".
Thanks- I didn't know that!
Yeah......nah. I have always kept my onions and spuds in a dark dry cupboard in separate containers next to each other and they both last for months!
You’re fantastic Stacey. Great tutorials. I consider myself a good cook but you’ve taught me so much and helped me save so much. Love from Sydney Australia. Great fan. BTW you look great.
Thank you :-)
So pleased I found your channel, I also have a thermomix & make lots of my basic pantry ingredients.
While watching I have pumpkin soup cooking away in thermy for my Mum. I like finding new ways to save.
This looks like an interesting concept for a video. Thank you both for sharing 👍
Thanks so much, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! It was a lot of fun for me to do this with Stacey 🙂
Ah my favourite NZ ladies in one video ❤ Stacey today I had some leftover puff pastry after making sausage rolls and remembered your cinnamon scrolls idea, yay!!! Extra lunchbox snacks, thanks for the inspo 😊
Thank you once again for a great video Stacy, nice to see someone else's kitchen, what a lovely amount of space there, love the nails xx
Morrocan black eyed peas (beans) is a DELICIOUS dish and a staple in our house. great over rice.
Thank you both! What s beautiful well organized pantry. As always great tips & ideas.
Hi there- you're welcome- so glad you liked it!
Great video! That mustard looks delicious! I enjoyed seeing how you use your Thermomix.
I just tried out my balloon pump, if I place the flat end(opposite end to the nozzle) it acts as a suction pump! Also corn beef makes excellent cottage pie(the cold meat kind which I prefer)
I finally went through my shelf & top drawer & cleaned out all my herbs & spices this week as most of them had been either used or unused but sitting in my kitchen now for over 10 years as I don't use them anymore not having a family to cook for. I buy my garlic from woollies as a bottle of minced & that way it only takes me a year or two at most to consume & my onion I now buy frozen from Woolies as it is cheaper & already chopped up for me. Actually it was good to finally clean out the drawer & assess what I actually had in it that I would consume as I had bought a number of products to try when I first found out that my constant sickness was caused by the gluten I was eating in my breads, cakes etc. However, gluten free cooking is not easy nor always very tasty when it is successful, so it didn't take more than a year or two to decide to abandon it & stick to plain simple food that I could purchase & steam that is, veggies & salads with the occasional loaf of gluten free bread toasted, otherwise plain rice cakes. Now I just have to clean out my pantry of all the bags of stuff I bought but have never used & they are all years out of date!! 🤣🤣🤣
I too am doing inventory and cleaning and purging of my pantry, cupboards and freezers - it actually feels really good doing it. Not at the time that you do it but later when you start meal planning to use up what you have :)
Absolutely loved this and that’s a big YES from me to making this a new segment . I learnt so much.xx😊
It was so lovely to be able to do this with Stacey- really glad you enjoyed it!
It is fun to see into someone elses kitchen and get ideas :)
I totally agree!
Love the blue nails! Brilliant (and different) idea for a series Stacey.
Thank you :-)
Oh thanks for the reminder…my fridge & freezers need a complete overhaul 😳 It’s so overdue
Hi Stacey. Love the viewers kitchen idea!!! Might need to get your help in mine! With the mustard? if it's really blended till smooth does that make it dijon mustard? I can only get it in small jars here in Oz and it's getting more and more expensive every week! A big jar for cheap would be awesome!!! Love what you do. Keep up the good work
It was such a lot of fun to do, and so many great idea's from Stacey!
Hi and thanks for reaching out. Dijon has a different method and more ingredients. I plan on making another video soon and we will cover it for you :-)
Hi I was just watching one of your older videos where you mentioned garlic sauce. Can you please share the recipe I love anything with garlic.
Great vid. So many awesome tips, tricks and ideas.
Feel like I need to have a note book next to me when I watch your video's to note down everything I want to remember and try/implement.
Love love love your channel.
I am a widow and single mom, i buy in bigger packs of meat and split them into small portions for myself with my vaccum sealer. I also reuse all the glass jars i get from store brand foods to store my flour, pasta etc on. When i cook a dinner i have never been able to cook just for one so it works out because i end up with leftover freezer meals.
You always give soo many valuable tips! Thank you so much
Oh my gosh so lovely to watch your channel, great content and you have the most relaxing voice to listen to while relaxing and learning. Thankyou for all your great vlogs. Great collab. ❤
It was such a pleasure to have Stacey help me out. Our meals have improved greatly since I started watching her channel!
Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Dock Seed Flour😊 I've collect in the past, but didn't get around to making it 😢
Oh that's a great way to use up tonnes of seeds
Ooh. That mustard would be beautiful on a corned silverside Sanger Stace. Looked lovely. Great video mate.
Don't buy food grade storage buckets!! Ask at bakeries (independent and in-store) and cake shops. The white and pink icing they use on finger buns etc comes in extra large food grade buckets, and they get thrown away when empty. Because the icings are a liquid, the lids are really tight fitting. I can get 5kg of flour, sugar or rice into one. 8 Packets of pasta will also fit. They're also terrific if you brine for pickling.
I loved this video, you have many different foods there than what I have seen here. I also freeze my butter and my yeast to extend their life and I vacuum seal all my meats and fish like you told her. We are in spring now although we had 2 more inches of snow this morning but seeing her garden, even though your season is ending, excites me to begin mine!
Awesome video, you look fantastic, well done ❤
Enjoyed this video.
That was super interesting abd made me want to tidy my pantry😂
I couldn't LIVE without my Thermomix!!!
Fun & Helpful video! Thank You both, & yes I believe this is great idea for series
Please, please do the cowboy beans video.
Wonderful advice again, thanks Stacey 😊
Great video. Very interesting about making mustard. Your nails look great!
I so want to make that mustard, I have to find where to buy the mustard seeds though, the shops only sell them in tiny jars here (55gram)
I would love to see the chickpea dish ❤️
I’d also love to see hummmus recipe your way :)
Hi Stacey and hello to all,thank you money karma for a sneaky look in your pantry,i love this idea i think it could help some people with long term storage as the fresher the ingredient the better it tastes and most of us are trying to save money,love from Australia Lee❤🦘
Thanks for the lovely comment, really pleased you enjoyed it!
Stacey I would love if you did some how to step by step pressure canning videos in the future sometime. I’ve only done it once and am not confident at all. Ive been doing Fowlers for many years but the next step seems so daunting. I would love to have baked beans and soups on hand (in the pantry rather than taking up freezer space).
Anyway love your videos!
Thanks for reaching out. I actually already have quite a few canning videos out already but I am also planning on doing a beginner's one as well. Search for the baked beans one to start you off.
This was interesting to watch, great tips you gave her👍 and would love to see the morrocan lamb recipe please, sounds delicious 🤗
New to your channel and really enjoy it.
thank you
Fab info and pantry ideas, definitely gonna make the mustard... 😁
Definitely encouraged me to sort out my pantry and fridge. Thanks❤❤
I feel that I must confess it all had a spruce up in preparation for Stacey having a look through 🤣
@@nzmoneykarma 🤣🤣💗
Fab info and pantry ideas, definitely gonna make the mustard 👍
Funny how we can’t afford lamb in the land of sheep.
very sad really
And when you see NZ meat or cheese etc overseas costing less than we pay for it! I also wondered if the south island lamb is better quality than what we can get in the north island as it seemed to taste better there (when travelling) at restaurants etc.
Can you imagine the difference in our society as a whole if we fed our people first? It would be huge just huge.
My family had corn beef for dinner yesterday 😂. Family favourite and still cheap here in Oz.
Ki ora! Howdy Doody n G'day from over the ditch, yet another wonderful video Stacey! Love those nails!! How strange, I have just started cash stuffing about 1 week ago when I came across an Aussie mum who does frugal grocery hauls and cash stuffing - before this I never even heard of the concept although I do know my Dad when he was on this earth used to use envelope system but not like the way ppl are doing today.
I love Corned beef and Mustard sauce. I mentioned to an English friend i was making Corned beef and you could just about hear him turn up his nose all he had ever had was tinned corned beef and he hated it.
Yumm my favourite! Has to have the mustard sauce
Wonder if he would have responded differently if you said corned silverside?
Loved this. Thank you😊
Glad you enjoyed!
Really interesting, thankyou.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Stacey looking forward to this 😊 xxx
Great video, thank you Stacey 🌟
So glad you enjoyed it too!
You are so welcome!
@@FarmersWifeHomestead your videos are the highlight of my day ♥️
I didn't know you could freeze ginger. I've let so much go to waste.
I love your channel ,I also use,milk powder
Love the look around someone else’s pantry
Glad you enjoyed. Yes, I also like having a peek in someone else's pantry and gardens too!😀
I love NZ Money Karma
Thank-you 😀😀😀😀😀
So do I :-)
@@FarmersWifeHomestead Thank-you 😁😁😊😊😊
Thank you Stacey, will give mustard a go. Cooked your chicken and pumpkin lasagna yesterday, it was really yummy 🦘
Wonderful!
Awesome another great informative video
the Moroccan lamb sounds amazing. I've discovered frozen mutton chops at my local supermarket - selected carefully you get a minimum of bone/fat, and when cooked in the slow cooker it is so much nicer than lamb - much cheaper too! Could your mustard recipe be adapted to make a sweet American hot dog mustard? If so, how would you do that?
That would be a whole different mustard. I might make another video with some other types later on down the line.
Love your podcast I will be having a go at the mustard ❤
Very interesting. Thanks
Thanks! Was super helpful for me too 🙂
Thanks
Thank you so much for your super thanks, I will put it towards the PO B fund :-)
I'll definitely be making mustard. My province (Saskatchewan) is world top exporter, and grower, of mustard, though it of course varies year to year.
Love seeing family recipes!
Lots more of those to come as well :-)
