1859 Vinegar Pie (Hint: It's NOT From The Great Depression) - Old Cookbook Show

[@BDylanHollis]

It's unfortunate how reality tussles with sensationalism. I've regrettably danced with the issue often. Seems many simply like the idea that: "the depression was so bad they had to use VINEGAR in their pies!" - Never does the true (and oft more interesting) history much justice. Thank you for the informative video.

[@AD-kv9kj]

Still gross though. So many old recipes seemed so desperate to just use up random ingredients in everything. "Eeer, we gotta shedload of vinegar still...let's just convince everyone to use it up in pies!"

[@shirleyannconfer9651]

I’m impressed that one of the content creators that I watch regularly is also a fan of this KZbin channel!

The people may have not had access to much. No modern grocery stores. In WWII, they also had to deal with rationing so didn't have access to some foods.

[@josephdeveau3584]

This show has become a standard part of my Sunday morning routine: walk and coffee, grab a montreal style bagel, watch the Old Cookbook Show while eating my bagel, and then hit the gym.

[@derekh989]

Same, I make coffee and then check to see if Glen's video is up yet.

[@mattjohnson6227]

Same. Coffee and the old cookbook show are my Sunday mornings.

[@SeventhSwell]

Kinda the same except I honestly don't have a Sunday routine outside of watching this channel. This channel is my Sunday routine.

[@virginiaf.5764]

Make a Sunday (more involved) breakfast, perk the coffee, sit down and watch the Old Cookbook Show. No gym, but I can go out on my porch, look at the 14,000 ft. mountain I live near, and fondly remember when I could hike it.

[@NyxaGrayheart]

Meanwhile I wake up in the middle of the afternoon (sundays are my sleep in day) roll out of bed and have my coffee while watching.

[@amyeagleton697]

My mom and grandma would take those leftover pie crust pieces, put cinnamon sugar on them, and bake them. So tasty, and it kept the kids from begging for the actual pie, lol

[@violetwithey4618]

Mine too. They spread it lightly with butter, margarine,Grandma called it Oleo. Then the cinnamon and sugar.

[@annethomson4920]

​​@@violetwithey4618 we had ours with Jam , custard , cream or ice cream or maybe all 4

[@crackersmom2679]

Yep! I did that when my kids were at home, now I do that for my grandchildren. I loved it and so do they!

[@kathrynmaharaj9265]

Here in Quebec they are called "pet des soeurs" which means "Nuns Farts"

[@terramarini6880]

My mom did that too, butter, cinnamon sugar, rolled up like a little crescent roll. I did the same for my kids/husband.

[@nicolelasher]

As I understand from some old folks in my family, vinegar pie liquid is basically a base to hold fruit scraps and stale bread, or whatever neutral tasting stuff you have around the kitchen that needs getting rid of before it spoils. I've even heard people putting in leftover potatoes, carrots, and anything that has some chew. Mash or chop it up, and nobody really knows what was in the pie. The vinegar kind of binds all the smells and flavors together. One would definitely also use some sort of allspice or cinnamon mixture as well.

[@Klwjjj]

I remember my grandma making something similar and she would use a potato. As you say - no one knows the difference. 😊

[@argie498189]

My mom made vinegar pie in autumn. She rolled out several thin layers of crust. She put in some filling into the bottom crust, then a layer of crust, more filling, more crust, not sure how many layers, but then the top crust, and she took an ice pick and poked holes all over the top, clear through to the bottom. She brushed the top with water and sprinkled sugar lightly all over the top. The layers of crust puffed up, and the pie came out higher than the plate it was in. So fragrant, so delicious.

[@zaynamoore]

Vinegar Pie is referenced in The Little House on the Prairie series which were based on family life circa 1870...so quite some time before the Depression era.

[@essaboselin5252]

That's the first time I heard of it as well. Never once considered it to be a Depression Era recipe.

[@juliao8428]

That was where I first heard of it as well.

[@shelleyhender8537]

Bless you Sheri - I loved “Little House on the Prairie”…and still do years later! I feel like a “dying breed”, as I rarely hear of anyone mention this show and “Anne of Green Gables”! I bought the series this past year and started watching an episode from time to time. Hope you are having an awesome day!☺

[@krazycatz]

YES!!! That’s where I first heard about it too!!!

[@heleneminger]

I have been reading this series to my children and they are loving it

[@ginya15]

In late 50s, my Mom would threaten us “ eat your dinner or I’ll make a vinegar pie for your dinner” until my sister Dotty made one and it really wasn’t that bad.

[@sadiedesimone7460]

I am 83. My mom made vinegar pie when I was a child. I loved it! One day I came into the kitchen and exclaimed, “Oh boy! I smell vinegar pie!” My mom laughed because my face was just above her pot of boiling vinegar-water and sugar looking for that delicious pie.

[@hoovesandpaws]

Hi Glenn...My Mamaw and Mom used to make this pie and also Water Pie alot. I learned to make my own vinegars from them. So...I use my homemade vinegars which are various flavors ... apple, banana, blackberry, etc. Using one of these flavored vinegars really enhances this pie. And a dab of my homemade complimentary extract really makes a better pie!

[@michaelreid8857]

Would you please share with me, how to make Raspberry Vinegar? Thanks

[@elizabethbednar6338]

Banana vinegar sounds so odd to me

[@ange4739]

Really ? Would you share your recipes & how to ?

[@hoovesandpaws]

@@busimagen Yes and I still do. Right along with pickles and syrup and relish.

[@smallfootprint2961]

@@busimagen ... My mom made watermelon rind pickles. They were good. Like a bread and butter pickle.

[@n1gak]

first thing that popped into my mind: In the mid-80s, my sister found a recipe in a magazine for a vinegar pie, attributed to settlers on the Oregon Trail (magazine was called "Old West" or something like that). We made it for a family meal, my younger brother and I loved it, my father hated it. "Vinegar pie" became a term in our family for "something that seemed like a good idea, but did not meet expectactions" (Going on to watch the rest of the video now)

[@Abpgsetiloincawdyubkolmbrs]

As this pie hails from Pennsylvania, it’s cousins in Waterloo county would have likely been made with apple molasses. Apple cider boiled down till thick, as you would maple syrup.

[@Iceland874]

My grandma made it. My brothers thought it sounded horrible but I liked everything Grandma made. The only time I’ve ever baked in my 66 years other than cookies when my 3 sons were little, was rhubarb pie in Home Economics in 8th grade. It was the grossest thing I could have ever been forced to make. Enjoyed the video.

[@mitchellgehman4605]

As a resident of Lancaster, I feel compelled to mention that Lancaster is pronounced "Lanc-ister", like there is an "i" instead of an "a". Cool recipe, love to see some representation of my corner of the world

[@hatjodelka]

My first impression from the UK, when seeing the title was "Vinegar pie? What on earth is that?" I have never heard of it before. The main thrifty recipes come from the second world war when rationing was strict. Sugar and molasses (black treacle here) were very rare then as well as butter. Perhaps Lord Woolton pie is the equivalent.

[@candygirl7586]

I have been making Vinegar Pie for my children, who are now adults, and having it myself since I was a very young child in the southern US. The ingredients my family used were only eggs, butter, sugar/molasses, 1T vinegar, and vanilla... bottom crust only. A Chess Pie included flour...

[@sharonbargercarnes4414]

Take out the vinegar, leave the molasses, and it’s closer to Shoofly Pie, which is another Pennsylvania Dutch recipe.

[@ryanmitchell4426]

I had a similar thought, especially since it came from a Lancaster paper.

[@mariegarside8830]

Shoofly pie reminds me of my grandmother.

[@kathleensaenz4717]

Love shoofly pie ❤❤❤❤❤

[@sshirleyks]

I love Julie’s face when she heard vinegar pie. 🤣

[@Amelia.A.T.]

My sister and I were watching, and we both remembered our family vinegar pie. We use my great-grandmother's recipe, which is likely a late nineteenth century recipe (my mother's mother's mother used to make it for my grandmother when she was a girl, and grandma was born in 1901). It had an egg and butter in it, but the egg is not separated. My sister said that our mom said it was a Penn Dutch recipe, which makes sense because our great-grandmother and grandmother were born in rural PA. On a similar note, I'm going to be making a raisin pie that my grandmother used to make for me (back in the sixties) which I still have the recipe for in my great-grandmother's handwriting. 🙂 I'm looking forward to that! Love your show, Glenn, and especially when you dig into the history of the recipes on your Sunday videos!

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Amelia, My grandmother also made raisin pie (often) when I was growing up. I did not like because she made it with raisins that had seeds in it. And we did have seedless raisins back in those days. Why she made it with those raisin I will never know. LOL.

[@jcboom6894]

Raining pie was my Dad's favorite pie

[@joanng8601]

The 70 teacups made me laugh, that anyone would think they are same size- love your channel, thank you

[@EastSider48215]

Vinegar Pie is mentioned in two of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books: Farmer Boy and Little Town on the Prairie. So they were common in the American East and Midwest in the 1870’s.

[@andielangemeyer]

I love how thorough you are Glen! You must love research. I probably wouldn't be watching cooking videos without your awesome history lessons and commentary 😊

[@petervanderwaart1138]

If you don't want to spray the molasses measuring cup, you could put a little of the hot liquid from the pan, and swirl it around.

[@RSidneyB]

Yup, thought the same thing. I often do that; e.g., getting the last bit of tomato paste out of a can .

[@terebrown2892]

Don't know if you (rsidneyb) meant put the hot liquid in before measuring molasses to "preheat" it to make it slide out or after to rinse it out and get the last of it but I do both. I often fill the glass with hot water before anything hard to get out, (honey, peanut butter, shortening, etc) but using hot liquid from the recipe would make even more sense, thanks for that idea. And, of course, being Grammy Sarrett's favorite granddaughter, we don't waste anything, so we always rinse the jars and cans out, preferably with part of the recipe. I even throw browned ground beef or mushrooms in the spaghetti sauce jar and shake it around to clean it out without watering down the sauce.

[@jrkorman]

I was sitting there talking to my screen "Glen, you've got a pan of hot water!!!"

[@t_y8274]

Or if measuring by weight, you can use the negative on the scale (by measuring the molasses jar)

[@jamesmcinnis208]

"No one really knows what a teacup is."

[@quintessenceSL]

Something I've witnessed with events I have first-hand knowledge of is the re-writing of history (intentional or not) and dissemination through the web from people whose research/opinions are maybe one degree removed from wikipedia. It has impressed upon me the need to track down original sources (and even that is going to be a bit fraught) and nullius in verba.

[@itzel1735]

Interesting. Reminds me of the seven sweets and seven sours from the Pennsylvania Dutch tradition. I would have cooled the filling before putting it in the crust, but your experiment seems to have worked.

[@Jaeler9]

Can I suggest doing a series of “mock” pies? Cause I stumbled across a mock apple pie (quite a few family members are allergic to apple and I wanted to share the deliciousness that is apple pie without making them sick) that is made from zucchini and I have no clue when it is from. It was in a home canning chat group when I found it. But it is exceeding delicious and if I don’t study the “fruit” inside I can’t tell the difference in taste.

[@terebrown2892]

Have you ever heard of the mock apple pie made using Ritz crackers? You won't believe it till you've tried it! And, yes Glen, a series of mock pies, or anything else, would be greatly appreciated. ps, our local American Legion Auxillary cookbook had a recipe for "mock pineapple" that started with zucchini

[@joantrotter3005]

I think originally zucchini pie is an old Italian tradition?

[@michaelreid8857]

I would recommend using a good apple pie recipe and substitute the apples for pears. This keeps it fruit and pears have similar flavour to apples!

[@LilyoftheValeyrising]

I’ve heard of a mock apple pie made from whole ritz crackers. I heard about it in early ‘90’s.

[@crackersmom2679]

I've had them made out of Ritz crackers, but not zucchini. Sounds good.

[@lenalyles2712]

This was one of my Grandfather's favorite pies. Sweets we're a treat when we was little and this pie was easy and enjoyed at our table.

[@derekh989]

I'd be interested in an episode explaining how you research old recipes across different newspapers and time periods. Are there searchable databases online? How do you look through your old cookbooks for a specific recipe if you're not sure it will be in any of them?

[@SeventhSwell]

Oh, that would be neat. I do enjoy a good behind the scenes video, like the tour of the kitchen set one. Maybe I've missed it, this channel has been around a long time before I found it during Covid, but if there isn't a video just showcasing the cookbook collection I'd love to see that too.

[@virginiaf.5764]

There are searchable newspaper databases online. I think some require paid. subscriptions.

[@derekh989]

@Virginia F. Yes. But that doesn't help me understand the process of using them to track down recipes from different regions through different centuries and decades.

[@johnhpalmer6098]

I bet Glen spends lots of time looking in the stacks at the public library looking at actual books and of course, many stacks will contain many old newspapers, bound and can find the recipes that way, as well as online and making copies of certain parts of pages as needed.

[@Vickiib]

I've made a vinegar pie for decades! I grew up eating it and I have a copy of my great grandmother's recipe for it. She died in 1897!

[@janborkowski6659]

Please tell us your grandmother’s recipe. How did it differ from this one?

[@321southtube]

My first impression?...it was exactly what you're impression was after the first bite. The lemon does sound like an interesting fix. When you announced on the "validity" of information on the internet, I could hear the collective sound of jaws dropping from everyone under 30. I might just try this. Thanks so much. I truly appreciate the work behind the scenes as much as the final product. Always intriguing, interesting, and entertaining. Thanks so much

[@KnitterWho]

my first thought was logging. I remember visiting Hartwick Pines State Park in Michigan and there was a recipe for Vinegar Pie in one of the displays.

[@TheIronDuke9]

Something about your reaction of "weird, oh so weird" at the first taste really had me laughing, especially as I have no idea how this would taste. It's about what I imagine I would say were I to try it

[@eivujeienin]

The first place I heard about vinegar pie was in _Come an' Get It_ by Ramon Adams. It's a history of the chuck wagon and cattle roundup trail cooks. Sadly the book doesn't give very clear recipes, but it calls for sugar in this pie.

You sent my Mom and I on a hunt for her Grandmother’s recipe. Very similar except she used white sugar and added a teaspoon of cinnamon.

[@Klwjjj]

My grandma’s recipe includes 3/4 tablespoon of cinnamon and 1/4 nutmeg. Otherwise exactly the same.

[@JoeAuerbach]

The first thing that pops into my head when you say vinegar pie is a sweet tart sort of sugar based evaporation pie common enough here in Ohio. Checking the recipe .... yeah, that's it. It's a good one.

[@FranceG.Ouellette]

This pie is a tradition in my family (I am from Quebec) and we make it using white vinegar, brown sugar, water, a bit of flour and butter. Maybe it is an acquired taste, but we all love it.

Julie's face when Glen said vinegar pie 😂 exactly mirrored my face.

[@jjudy5869]

Right? You could just hear the enthusiasm melt away when she found out what kind of pie it was

[@superstar5123]

assumption is the instinct of the willfully ignorant

[@helenedesmarais8697]

I could guess that it started early in Britan with the sugar trade , a thickener and a bit of acid to balance. It propagated to the colonized Americas and got regionnalized. Here, in Québec ( previously Nouvelle-France way back), it got personnalized into " Tarte à la Farlouche" with the same type base with optionnal addition of raisins ( or not ).

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Yes! I’ve heard of it with raisins too! I knew it was missing SUMthing

[@matejcigale8840]

I just love the face Juesl makes when Glen declares it's vinegar pie.

[@rebeccaturner5503]

I always thought it was using vinegar instead of lemon juice because it was an acid and you would have it ready to hand. If you had different vinegars I am thinking you would get some real interesting differences in flavor. .

[@murlthomas2243]

It looks good, but I like molasses a lot. Grandma made molasses bread that I wish I had the recipe for, and it started my fascination for using molasses in other things. I will have to try this. Thank you Glen!

[@throttle4593]

My grandmother, who was born in 1903 used to make that pie, and taught my mom. I remember it was one of my favorites when I was a little girl.

[@justmefolks1863]

Interesting. I tried one of those older recipes about 25 years ago. It was a mock apple pie made mostly with saltines. It was hilarious because my kids at the time 2 teens and 2 preteens, all tasted it with eyes closed and thought it really was apple pie. I only made it once because the pan was a nightmare to clean....LOL. I really love that you showed all the different time periods also.

[@LadyElaineLovegood]

I grew up in York which is just down the road from Lancaster. Sweet & sour is a popular flavor combination around there so maybe that's the reason for this pie, but when the ingredients also give cider as an option it could be just be a desert option for when fresh fruit isn't available.

[@ThankfulQue]

I was going to write to you and see if you would make one of these! My mom made them and they are delicious! We were told they were “mock apple.” It was like a cobbler when she made them. The vinegar was really mellow. Thanks!

First thing that comes to mind is a book I read last week that was based in the 1800s where a man told his wife that he would leave her if she ever made him vinegar pie haha. After finishing this video, I was surprised by the recipe. In the novel I referenced above, the characters used the term vinegar pie to refer to a fruit pie that used vinegar instead of lemon juice. I wonder where the author got that from.

I associate vinegar pie with rural late winter cooking. Like sugar pie and butter tarts, it's a way of making a high-calorie food (like a fruit pie) when all the summer fruit has been used up. I didn't even know that it was associated with the Great Depression!

[@elmerkilred159]

I suppose one should probably ask the questions; What were the qualities, and varieties of the the ingredients that were used in this 1859 recipe? Was the molasses sulfured, unsulfured, dark, light, blackstrap, sorghum, sugar beet, cane, clover, maple syrup... ? Was the flour A/P, 00, whole wheat. barley or rye mixed... ? Vinegar- wine, apple cider, distilled, malt, cane...? Each combination of just these three ingredients could make a complete different flavor for each pie made. This episode just popped up in my feed today. I haven't seen an episode since the Cream Soda, and Cola experiments. I thought I was subscribed, but for some reason I was not. I am now. I have a lot of videos to watch now!

[@sandra.phillips]

Thanks for sharing. When I heard that it tastes close to an apple pie, that gave me some cool ideas. I have a keto/low carb lifestyle. I love apple pie, so I'm going to try this with a low carb flour mix, low carb sweetener and add some cinnamon. I think that you may have helped me figure out something for my occasional sweet tooth. I also love the simplicity of the basic recipe. I think doing a low carb version of that will be a great low cost basic pie.
