What is pearl ash?

I so love the brief moment when we see Justine looking out the window while doing dishes. I'd be delighted if you did a video of household chores in the 19th century. I'm curious about how it was done without running water in the house, and what cleaning products were used.

It is so much fun watching you cook. I love the sounds of a kitchen especially the stirring and and pouring in the sugar and when there's meat in a big dinner involved The chopping of the carrots and onions etc etc. Oh and the crackling of the fire in the background just oh boy that is so relaxing

[@rogerbutchbouchard8019]

Hi Justine. I really like it when your cooking videos offer no speaking, just cooking with ingredients. Very classic and a focus on the preparation itself.

[@rae1957tn]

I’d be talking to myself “ now where did I put the bowl I need?” “Is this ever going to get mixed?” And so on 😩

I'm incredibly intrigued by the simplicity of this page. My favorite time to watch is at night when I'm trying to calm my mind. Thank you for this beautiful creative page.

[@aarondigby9859]

My great grandmother cooked on a wood stove, the house had a fireplace with like metal racks where she would hang pots, then it had a flat rack where she'd set a skillet, I remember watching her many times as a four year old, it always amazed me that she never got burned or dropped anything, she was so precise with her movements. When my Dad renovated the kitchen with all electrical appliances and counters and cabinets, the next week I noticed he was adding a chimney to the backside of the house, Yes he was transporting a kitchenette for Grandma's old style of kitchen with a wood burning stove especially designed for cooking and grandma was so happy it was so to die for it was nostalgic and i remember all the porcelain or clay mixing bowls.

@Lynn people cook like this in rural India too.

[@privatedonut2914]

@Lynn Well Lynn for many it's choice they make in certain parts of rural Africa (depending which country they are in, the lifestyle they choose and their income). Considering Africa is no longer in the stone age with every modern convenience of any other place. Many indigenous people around the globe, they also "cook outside" for dishes. It's not always about having to cook this way but it's about tradition and just wanting to do it this way

[@pamelaanneduffy9927]

I just love your videos Justine. So relaxing. We are always in a rush it seems these days. Watching you bake and cook is doing wonders for my soul. You are a little gem to youtube.

[@nanachick05]

The ingredient Pearlash (usually spelled as one word or with the hyphen) is an old German ingredient, also called potash (pottasche in German). Haven’t seen that used in years, we use baking soda now, sure would like to find some pearlash.

Townsends has it, probably others as well.

Watching Ron now enjoying his cakes. One blessed guy lol. Thanks for posting these videos. Enjoy them so much as they bring back memories of my aunts farm in Wva. Had electric but no indoor plumbing & everything was cooked over a coal/wood stove. Lots of great memories. Watching from Florida both of your channels.

Wow, I can't even imagine cooking without the modcons we have today. I can't imagine spending most of the day in the kitchen. I have alot more appreciation for the help and women in the past now who spent hours upon hours preparing food for their families. I bet their food tasted real good too ❤

I love this channel soo much. I like baking & cooking, but these videos have a plus unique charm. So relaxing, so kind. This is what I miss from the modern lifestyle.

[@Krisna_K]

My dad has never used an electric mixer when baking and he baked a lot when I was growing up. He had a few specialty’s like cookies and this oatmeal spice cake that was so good! He combined two recipes for the cake! I usually don’t use an electric mixer for baking either unless it involves dough! I just prefer a wire whip and wooden spoon like my dad! 😂

[@danielmorse4213]

Same. When mine was stolen by my stalker, it had collected dust for years.

Loving this beautiful spring blue dress on you. Always enjoy watching these soothing videos before bedtime. Thank you for your channel.

[@mrs.g.9816]

As a small girl, I loved Mom's pound cake. She used vanilla as a flavoring and baked it in a bread pan and sprinkled powdered sugar on it when it cooled. In our house, pound cake was expensive and rich, so we didn't have it often. But I'd love to try your old recipe, which is different. Also I was imagining how good your pound cake, "plum" cakes and honey cake would taste. Using rose water and orange blossom water are great ideas. I would like to find those flavorings if possible and add them to my spice shelf.

[@judithfairchild8620]

I think you can get orange flavoring at the store

[@NATALIEKING1976]

Another terrific video. Thanks, Justine. That receipt for the honey cake had me laughing. 6# flour and 2# honey! It would feed the whole county.

[@glenndamckinnis9445]

Yum! Cakes look delicious. Think I'd soak currents first before baking. Your clothes are beautiful! Justine rinse your egg shells & let them dry so you can use on your garden to keep slugs from eating your plants. After shells dry break & crumble into small bits. Sprinkle around where your plants are or where they will be. The egg shells cut up slugs bodies so your plants will be safe. Love hearing the birds sing & the fire crackle
