An evening in my Jurte and baking bread in the Dutch Oven | Bushcraft for photographers

[@tomdullage1531]

Who knew you could watch 39 minutes of Morten making bread and not get bored, awesome!

[@MortenHilmer]

Hi Tom and thanks a lot for this amazing compliment. I actually got quite bored myself when editing this video 😀😀

[@EduBroncano]

@@MortenHilmer The result worths the time spent, don't doubt about it. Such a pleasant video! Very good job!

[@josephcullen5872]

This is proof, if anyone needed it, that Morten could make a video about anything and people will love it 😊😍

[@MortenHilmer]

You are too nice Joseph:) but thanks you very much. People in here are just so friendly which is incredible encouraging:)

[@Steen_Skov]

'aaamen, det er jo fordi DU er det Morten :) And to the english speakers: "Buut that's 'cos you are, Morten".

[@josephcullen5872]

@@MortenHilmer it's because you're so sincere Morten. It feels like we're talking to a friend 😊

[@starsearchreject]

Right?! I commented on another one of his videos that I could listen to him talk about whatever for however long. There is just something about Morten, whether it's his story telling or his genuine excitement about, and love of, wildlife - perhaps it just boils down to his personality. You want to listen.

[@josephcullen5872]

@@starsearchreject he's also brave enough to do what he loves and I guess I'm in awe of that. #WeLoveMorten Let's make some t shirts 😂

[@WildNatureMedia]

These videos of Morten have renewed my faith in humanity and I don't share that lightly. These "stirring the oatmeal" videos, with no hype, no dramatization and no fabrication are actually in demand by the public. With 473,000 subscribers, I'm gobsmacked that this type of filming is in demand. I knew it my gut but now I know for certain that it's true. Morten, I tip my hat your way.

[@luigidimeglio9167]

In an age of instant gratification, Morten Hilmer has the audacity to make a 40-minute KZbin video about baking bread. It's a wonderful lesson in simplicity and patience bringing joy. Thank you for your efforts and lessons, Morten!

[@seoirse68]

Just spent half an hour watching Morten stoke a fire, bake bread, pet his animals and make tea......and i loved it😊

[@jfphotography69]

Best nature/wildlife/baking photographer on KZbin.

[@MortenHilmer]

Haha so kind of you

[@kevinmurray781]

Great video once again Morten.your blind give away has made a very enthusiastic 14 year old a very happy young man,ive know Jack for a while and he’s such a nice young man who is so enthusiastic and passionate about wildlife photography,your give away will inspire him even more and hopefully make the next generation of great wildlife photographers.

[@ChrisHunt4497]

I loved every minute of this Morten. I would rather watch you than any television programme. Sitting there by the fire with your animals and the peace found in cooking a loaf of bread, it was wonderful to see. I would love to do the same. Thank you so much for sharing. xx

[@MortenHilmer]

😀😀😀Thanks Chris for this lovely comment. So kind you you to take your time to tell me. Enjoy your Sunday. All the best from Denmark.

[@FlyersNation98]

what makes your contents so special is really this perfect touch of authenticity and kindness.....don't change Morten! :)

[@MortenHilmer]

Thanks a lot - so encouraging to hear. I can only be me, so I promise not to change😀

[@JMHSPhoto]

I rarely ever look at scene...a time.. or place I wished I could be. But the look and sound of that bread was almost too much to think about. I could taste every bite... It was like a weird Bob Ross episode whereas you cut it -- left us hanging. And then pulled out that BUTTER.. it's very hard not to get so emotional over watching someone else be so emotional, over something they really enjoy doing. It's episodes like this that draw me to this channel. There is no replacement or covering up true emotion. You have given us this with each and every installment. It makes me happy -- you're so happy.

[@philipnixey436]

I just sat and smiled for 40 minutes.

[@gardeningallotmentadventur1465]

My wife like this video so much that now we have bought a Dutch oven. I fear that my attempt might not be a delicious as yours. I love the artwork on the walls behind you and the rugs and lighting. Awesome.

[@scotty4418]

Nothing beats a hot cup to tea and freshly baked bread covered in butter. Watching this Morten has now made me hungry so maybe its time to make some home made bread and put the kettle on

[@giorgio_bovolini]

It made me very hungry too pal😄

[@MortenHilmer]

Haha - you are absolutely right. And that was why I got the little Dutch oven. I make fire quite often and why not make a bread then;)

[@yaniveliash]

32:28 "holy something...", this is priceless 😂

[@vaunsphotography6820]

Looks like it came out well. I remember reading the entry comment by the 14 year old. Great choice for winning your give away blind.

[@starsearchreject]

Me too! I'm so glad he's one of the winners. Congrats young man! And keep doing what you love.

[@Xetenor]

Every video from Morton is like a calmness needed in our daily life. Always fun to watch with calming music, images and Morton just being himself :)

[@montanaphoto]

I enjoyed the evening in the jurte with the smell of baking bread, very much.

[@chrisfletcher4243]

What a inspiration you are to all Morten, not just to photographers but also to those just wanting to get out and enjoy wildlife. 39mins of watching you cook bread flew by....now I have to return to life and dream of getting out this autumn one last time and catching a snap of the stags in Glen Etive and perhaps cooking some bread of my own!

[@petracollins8623]

What a fabulous pot brood.

[@LieslHuddleston]

I enjoyed this, Morten, your bread looked amazing, that end crust is the best part! I grew up in South Africa and we used to make "Potjiekos" in a dutch oven over hot coals or fire/embers like yours. Meat, vegetables and potatoes or rice, so yummy! Look on the internet for recipes for potjiekos, unless you already have something like that in your country. Nowadays I do the same kinds of recipes in the kitchen with a pressure cooker, but nothing beats the flavor from a dutch oven!

[@shawnl680]

Don't worry Morten, I'll make a cup of tea and watch your video, listening to you talking stuff for hours

[@MortenHilmer]

Thanks a lot. This one definitely ran a bit long...

[@cnevett6854]

I chuckled through this video thinking, "This guy has it totally right." Love to see what your Jurte looks like in daytime. I am assuming this is a tent...getting back to a simpler time...we all need this. You inspire us all to walk away from the house and join nature. Certainly am going to pass this on to some of my friends. Thanks for sharing..can't wait for the next video...and don't worry about time....loved every minute!

[@MortenHilmer]

So kind on you to write and so encouraging to hear that you get inspired by the video:) I will definitely make some videos from daytime as well. Such a jurte is absolutely awesome. It is like going into another world - into the past.

[@Zeppy007]

I could watch you paint walls Morten, it's your storytelling ways that suck me in deep...Heating up some Italian bread now :-)

[@briansquibb999]

Sounds like the bread had the perfect crust. Wow, that made me hungry! Great job!!

[@ALCATRAZOFFICIAL]

Hi Morten Thank you so much for great stuff! Videos get longer and longer but I enjoy it very much! :)

[@MortenHilmer]

Thanks so much. I actually struggle with the length, but I am glad it doesn't scare you away:)

[@peterrennison465]

Your enthusiasm is infectious Morten. I presume that was Yorkshire tea? 😋. 👍

[@victaylor-amateurphotograp9171]

Just a superb entertaining video Morten. You made me smile. BTW:. Dutch Oven tip...or Camp Ovens as we call them in Australia. You want lots of good coals on the lid for baking and roasting, not underneath. We make a good fire and when it down to coals we use a shovel to move the fire aside. Place the camp oven on the hot ground but not on coals. Shovel red hot coals onto the lid and a little around the sides. A large loaf of bread normally takes about 35 minutes. Good Luck.

[@ronaldlinkenhoker5705]

I definitely enjoyed this. I bake all my own bread. I have to get a Dutch oven, now.

[@peterfulmar9116]

Oh boy , I follow you for your photography, interested In the z9, I cannot afford a 600mm, enjoyed Ellesmere Island and all your other jaunts, now a jurte and baking bread. I am a farmer in Virginia, a bird photographer with Nikon stuff, I also bake bread which every day is an unknown quantity but I applaud your style and patience,keep it up, pflmar.

[@robnelson1268]

The best 40 minutes I've spent in a long time,thank you.

I've never gotten so much joy from a youtube video as when Morten removed the lid and the bread looked amazing.

Another heart-warming video Morten. It's you and the fire - nothing like an open fire. Mesmerising.....

@@MortenHilmerNext time you decide to bake bread over a camp fire, try wrapping your bread dough around a debarked stick and place that over the fire! We did that when I was in the boy scouts here in the US! That bread was awesome! Especially with the smokey flavor from the camp fire.

[@TandemAdventures]

[@john_norris]

Morten, I just hope that you know how much pleasure you give from your photography and videos. You are like the wild Stag on the mountain, who tolerates the sensitive photographer watching him. You allow us a glimpse of your life. I watched this video for the third time this evening. At the end, I realised that I had smiled all the way through, for 40 minutes. The only time that I did not smile was when you used your knife to cut your freshly baked bread. That moment made me laugh out loud. I think everyone felt that moment with you. Best wishes.

[@zuzia7628]

It really reminds me about our first experiments with the tiled stove in the old wooden cottage house. You have to put up the fire inside, then take off the warm ash and put the bread, cake dough or meat, whatever you want to bake. Some results were success, some...black as a coal mine :-) It's really the crucial point to learn how to asses the temperature, because you have no termostat. The old lady from the village told me to put a bit of flour inside and if it turns brown in couple of minutes, the temperature is fine for bread :D But it's still a challenge. Thanks Morten for sharing such super moments of your life!

Jurta is cool, it's trending now. I went to Hungarian school and there I learned about making the jurtas. Hungarian people were nomads and they used jurtas too. At Shantee's house in Budapest you can sleep in a Jurta that has Wi-Fi and phone charger for for a small amount of money.
