My mom learned this habit from her rural grand parents: Once its summer move your fireplace outside. Fancy people might have a so called "Summer kitchen" but even modest households can make do with a simple outside fireplace (preferably somewhere shady). It helps a lot.

[@reginaromsey]

I am n awe of your determination to do this recreation as you have! The heat in the cabin with that fire going, sometimes right in front of you! Real dedication!

[@EarlyAmerican]

Thank you Wanda. A lot of people have told me that my videos help them to relax through their anxieties so I didn't want to skip a week despite it being 100 f everyday of that week. Also I'm saving up $ so that I can buy land and get married it is very important to me.

@@EarlyAmerican I have been working on my family genealogy. You and John Townsend represent times and places where they traveled to and set up at least one generation’s homesteads until they seem to have found their “Promised Land” in Wayne, Indiana (not Fort Wayne) which is now a tiny unincorporated town in southeast Indiana. This century they moved to Frankfort and ran out of steam except for the oldest and youngest of the nine who headed for Oregon. I particularly am impressed with your being both the amazing young wife and a working woman outside the home that was true of at least three of my greats until there were children then the work of the farm wife doubled and like many women who would like to or just have to work outside the home childcare while mom was away was not feasible.

[@veedejames721]

@@EarlyAmerican it take a decent amount of salt,pepper, butter and maybe a little spice to give it flavor. It's bland. It take on what ever flavor you give it You can also shred it like rice. Maybe cream instead of milk. You can also roast it. Also I've added carrots. I guess it depends on how you cook it. You seperate it. I've never did the whole head like that. Beef or chicken bullion would give it a lot of flavor. Key is to add flavor. Like a cabbage, maybe by experimenting with it, you might give it another go. I imagine it got quite how. But you did good God Bless the both of you. I can only imagine what my great grandmother's went though. They didn't get a wood stove till the late 1920s. Thank you again Justine for all you do, the hard work to bring these videos to us. Much love and respect 👍💯❤️🤗🥰. Vee, Andrew and family.😉👋

[@ic1815]

As a Canadian, I appreciate you putting in the Celsius measurement for the temperature. Uhm, ma’am, we don’t go outside when it’s that hot let alone be inside somewhere where it’s that hot 😂 I commend you highly

Surprised you watch early American videos. A Canadian once told me they could never care less about American history.

[@WaiferThyme]

I cannot imagine sitting in front of a fire in 120 degree heat! Bless you for doing that

[@rimajaro]

My mom was German, she learned many recipes handed down for years. She boiled the cauliflower like you did, drained it and in the empty pot she mixed the butter and flour to make a rue. She then added the water the cauliflower was boiled in to make the white sauce. She seasoned it with white pepper, salt & nutmeg. It was served over boiled potatoes. They didn’t always have meat.

[@BiancaSaphira]

That's exactly the way my mom thaught me how to make cauliflower. She added the cauliflower-water and some milk to the rue. I love it and yes, I'm from Germany :)

[@juliar1225]

Jes, thats the trditional way to serve it in Germany. But in my family the roue was made with more milk than cookingwater. My mother added 1 eggyolk and some lemonjuice and it was usually served with bacon. Not the American breakfast bacon.

[@Loldrik]

I'm german an that's the way my mom taught it to me too... delicious 🤤

[@gramethyst2920]

*roux* not "rue". It's a French word meaning "browned butter".

You are very talented and do a great job. God Bless You Both.

[@someonesomewhere1100]

Girl, how you didn't pass out into the fire is a miracle in itself lol I couldn't imagine cooking over a flame in such extreme heat! Go you!! 🎉🏆💝

[@shawntipton5078]

Very good set of videos, life in the 18th and 19th centuries was not as hard or harsh as people think, because those living in early American periods as well as in Europe would have done their best to live life comfortably. It's true a home life would begin very early and end very late at night but the routine was varied and not too exhausting. Obviously life on the American Frontier would be more difficult than here in the UK but a thrifty American man and wife would have a range of animals and a small plot of land to grow crops and would visit the local town and market occasionally for treats and supplies. The wife here would probably have purchased the cauliflower in the town market on market day.

[@lifeaschronicallyingrid]

I have new respect for everyone who used to cook like this back in the day, and for those who choose to cook like this today. I know having to cook in a fireplace can make it hard to keep a comfortable temperature in the cabin. Love your videos!

[@mickeymousey1239]

comfortable? literally impossible, did u not notice how red her face was and the sweat? that is admirable for her to do this for us. cheers

how they make cauliflower soup, well pureeing it same thing almost, love cauliflower, it is a good starch replacement for pasta or rice, it can also be riced using a gadget.

[@cassiedawnlala]

Thank you Justine. I commend you for your tenacity! (I learned that word when I read it in a book. 😂) Please tell us that you are drinking lots & lots of water to prevent getting dehydrated or possibly having heat exhaustion..esp. since you are not used to this much heat intensity. I really enjoy both of y'alls channels. Love from Texas where it's also very hot! ❤ 😓🔥😩

[@johnvsymons]

Hi Justine 👋. That meal looks good👍🏻. Hint: "if they don't know, it won't hurt or upset them". I personally would sneak an air conditioner in the cabin where it wouldn't show up on camera. 😱🌬❄️🤣. I just realized that you don't have electricity in the cabin but it was a good thought for a while 🤣. I do know that even if you could do that, you wouldn't because you are trying to be authentic and historically correct but you have my utmost respect for cooking in 110 degrees heat. 👍💯. Take care and hopefully find a cool place to recover from filming this episode. Have a pleasant and cool week.

I grew up eating cheesy cauliflower, but it was with American cheese, and my mother stopped cooking it after the first step, just broke it apart and put a cheese sauce over it. I had to see this episode to see what difference there may have been. And to cook it in those temperatures was truly above and beyond!

[@user-yp6kn2uw4k]

To improve the recipe: adding milk or cream to cauliflower, crush it, followed by semolina or dry crumbs (white bread). Cool, so that the semolina swells and the mixture thickens, add the egg, mix and fry like pancakes. Serve with sour cream or mayonnaise. Same with carrots: it can be grated coarsely and stewed with a little water; or boil it whole and crush it with a pestle. I, just, fried and ate carrot pancakes, very tasty.
