Every Dish Has a Story - Jill's Childhood Memory: Knott's Berry Farm's Pioneer Stew

[@IntheKitchenwithKaren]

OH I also remember going to Knotts Berry Farm with my Parents when I was young..Oh the memories. I remember having the pie..but never got to have the stew...But now I can!! It looks so yummy!! I love all kinds of stew. I could eat it 3 days in a row as I think its even better the next day or even freeze some of it!! What a great memory Jill. Thanks again for letting me be part of your book, it was such an honor.

[@yesterkitchen]

I read about this in your book, and was hoping I would find the recipe on your channel! You read my mind Jill!

[@trapbistro]

I just watched Paddy Joe’s Cooking and he cooked his recipe from your book which I just ordered from Amazon. Looking forward to getting it soon. Thank you for sharing a great video.

[@yesterkitchen]

HI Tri-Tip Junkie! I grilled tri tip weekly when I lived in SoCal!! Love it! Welcome and thank you! You are going to love Patrick's story and all the stories in there! I am grateful for your support and welcome you to the world of cooking from the past!

[@MitchAndPhilip]

Your book is amazing and we are really enjoying reading all of the stories and recipes. And how fabulous is this collaboration today? Totally FABULOUS! Your stew looks excellent; the dark rich color is stunning. We are also loving seeing you back in the retro lakeside kitchen as well. So thrilled for you and the publication of what we suspect is just the first of many excellent books. You, Jill, and YesterKitchen, totally rock!

[@yesterkitchen]

Thank you Mitch and Phillip! I am so happy you are enjoying the book! That means so much to me!!! I am so happy that so many KZbin creators made their recipes! So great!!! It's great to be back and and I hope you make this wonderful stew. I was truly 12 again! Have a beautiful weekend!!!

[@PaddyJoeCooking]

Your Knott's Berry Farm's Pioneer Stew looks delicious and it's all about the story Jill, your's is phenomenal. You have bared your soul in this wonderful book thank you for sharing your story and I can't wait to see all of the other videos from all of the other creators that have contributed I will be reading this book from cover to cover. I cannot thank you enough for asking me to contribute my story of childhood food memories, it has meant a lot to me and it has been a very emotional journey. Congratulations my friend the release of Every Dish Has A Story is an astonishing achievement but for you I know that this is just the beginning. I don't need to wish you luck moving forward because your talent, passion and amazing ability to connect with people means that your success moving forward is inevitable.

[@yesterkitchen]

Patrick, your friendship means so much to me. I am so humbled by all your kind words. It's such an honor to have your story in my book! So beautiful. I hope your mom loved reading it! And this stew is just fabulous!!

[@constancelacount6341]

10:10... Yes, Jill it is YOUR BOOK! And boy-howdie, do you have a lot about which to be proud! I promised that I'd read it cover to cover the day it arrived, but the book is so full of love that I had to take my time with each and every story. (And I'm an avowed bibliophile with a serious reading addiction). Seriously, Jill I'm so happy that I found your channel some years ago and I cherish when you chuckle at some of my comments. YOU ARE A GEM!!!

[@yesterkitchen]

Hi Constance you avowed bibliophile! With that, your words are even more of a compliment! I am so happy you are happy with the book! It was such a labor of love! I am so happy you found me so long ago and are still there cheering me on! It means so much to me! Have a wonderful weekend my friend!!

[@constancelacount6341]

@@yesterkitchen You bet I will and a very Happy Fathers' Day to you and yours! Cheers!

[@dawng.8836]

Thanks for the memory, my mom would only let us eat at the Mrs Knott's house, so I missed this restaurant, too bad it's gone.

[@yesterkitchen]

Hi Dawn! Awwww too bad but at least you can make it at home! And for the record, I love Mrs Knott's chicken dinner!

[@JB-lm5xt]

Thank you, Jill!!! I am SO making this!

[@yesterkitchen]

I hope so Jen! it's just delicious!!!! I cant wait to hear what you think!

[@BuckHelton]

Congrats on the book! It's a huge thrill to see your creation in the flesh at last. The stew sounds great, and as any good stew is, eminently customizable. I have a friend who often went to KBF as a youngster, and his favorite memory is their fruit punch, Ever tried that? supposedly they still sell it at the park today..

[@yesterkitchen]

Hi Buck! Thank you so much! Oh yes! Your friend is talking about boysenberry punch which is fabulous! You can buy it at the park and they do sell the concentrate which I used to buy when my kiddos were little so I can share my childhood memories with them!

[@brandonarkell5357]

Your videos are always so joyful and heartfelt! Can't wait to buy your new book. I look forward to seeing recipe videos from it!

[@yesterkitchen]

Hi Brandon! Thank you so much!! And I am so grateful for your support! I know you will love the stories! There are a few more book videos coming your way!

[@Jenn-ie5vf]

Aww, this episode was so sweet. Wish I had daddy memories like you do. Luckily, I made sure that my kids do. I bought and am enjoying your book. Congrats again.

[@yesterkitchen]

Awwww Jennifer. We sure make sure our kids get what we didn't. What a great mom you are! I am so happy you are enjoying the book! Such beautiful stories! Thank you so much!

[@Jenn-ie5vf]

@@yesterkitchen I have a quick question about the chili cheese casserole on page 142. Do you or the author of the recipe have a suggestion of a good meat protein that would go good with this recipe? Sounds delish but know my guys will want a meat in there LOL

[@yesterkitchen]

@@Jenn-ie5vf Well, I made a video out of it that will release in a few weeks! I would add roasted chicken since you already have the cream of chicken soup. But I can truly attest that it is fabulous on its own! I just had it for lunch! 😄

[@Jenn-ie5vf]

@@yesterkitchen Thanks so much. I will await the video LOL It does sound really good

Great video and a great book. The wife and I are loving the stories. I just learned from this video that we were born in the same year. I wish you tons of success with this awesome book. Hope it is a best seller.

Oh boy does that look yummy! I've been wanting to make a Beef Stew, I think I'll try this one. I love Lima beans!!! 🌼

Hi Karenlee! This is the one to try! And when you do, tell me about it!!!

What a great stew! I wonder if Knott's still serves it. :✔👍

HI John! Oh it is! Sadly, the steakhouse closed years ago. If you got the book, I tell the whole story. At least you can make it at home!

No way!!! How absolutely special!! I absolutely love Mrs. Knott's Chicken dinner! Thank you so much for sharing that with me!!!!

[@eirrenia]

Congratulations! On not getting to cook with onions - have you tried substituting with leeks? It obviously won’t be exactly the same, but depending on what about onions your husband hates they may be an acceptable alternative that at least gets you some oniony flavor. I have to avoid regular white/yellow onions due to acidity, but find leeks work in many cases.

[@yesterkitchen]

HI Eirrenia! I appreciate the help! I have tried every version of the onion to no avail. I just cook off camera with extra garlic! Its taken years of trial and error but I can cook delicious meals without it and manage to sneak them in every now and then, LOL!

[@eirrenia]

@@yesterkitchen Cool. Wish I were of more help, but, yay garlic for the win! 🌟

Hi Andrew! Welcome! I just adore Margaret and Karen and am so honored that you came over. Than you so much for your support! Their stories, along with the others, are so beautiful. I hope you enjoy reading them. It was such a privilege to document everyone's childhood and share the recipes.
