[@allysonashley8596]

Just appreciate her so much! I’m so glad she left us with all this helpful knowledge… she gave us gifts with these videos.. she is missed.

[@pennylane7181]

Miss Phyllis, you are asleep now, yet you continue to teach. You would be so proud of Steven. He is really doing superbly having taken up your channel. He is doing a great job. He is patient and kind with a quiet sense of humor. We all miss you. Thank you for all you have done for us, and still continue to do. Will see you and Mr. Bucky in paradise. 🙏

[@PhyllisStokes]

Thank you for watching my videos and making comments. It makes me feel that I might be helping some folks. Phyllis

[@ejohnsonw]

Phyllis Stokes WOW! thanks for sharing the history on the gala apples. I like the instructional video on how to core, cut, cook, & store the apples. Thank you (JW Wichita Kansas USA) i've never had anyone show this to me before, I usually buy pre ct apples from the salad bar

[@debbiealtman4572]

Well thank you for all you're tips and trick and for wonderful recipes.

[@nezzie291541]

Phyllis you sure are helping me!

[@robingallion8564]

Thank you Phyllis and your son, Steven for taking over this video channel you started. I’m 65 and still learning from y’all.

[@PhyllisStokes]

That is awesome!

[@chriscarlton9682]

Miss you so much Phyllis - thank you for all the cooking tips you have given us through the years.

[@sunshinegypsea]

I just discovered this channel & I’m beyond heartbroken to learn she’s passed! Ty for keeping this channel going! It’s so helpful for newbies like myself who weren’t taught these things! God bless 🙏🏼

[@Cherokeechief52]

Please keep putting up Mrs Stokes video’s. They are wonderful and teaches lots of great things. She had a special talent and is missed

[@PhyllisStokes]

They'll be up as long as people want to watch them. She made over 1200 of them from 2014-2020!

[@janetdavenport6053]

Thank you for sharing Mrs Philly rest in peace you are always be with us.

[@texastiger1210]

Biscuit Toast! Oh my! When I was a little girl, my mother made toasted biscuits and they were heavenly. I haven’t had them in decades. Thank you Mrs. Phyllis for that video and for jarring my memory.

[@PhyllisStokes]

The biscuits are buttermilk biscuits. I've posted a video on how to make the biscuits. It doesn't really matter what kind you use - just break them in half, slap butter on each half and toast them under the broiler. That's BISCUIT TOAST.

[@laragreene8328]

i LOVE BISCUIT TOAST!!!

[@PhyllisStokes]

You can certainly leave the skin on the apples, I peel because usually the skins is tough after cooking.

[@reginalb1]

Hi Phyllis! My name is Regina...I am from W KY. I love your videos! So glad I happened upon them. You keep my fingers hungry!

[@onediafields4606]

thank you for all the history you have shard on all of the fruit and vegetables. I enjoy them very much. I am learning a lot! keep it up!

[@PhyllisStokes]

Hi Nawmmbr, thanks for subscribing. Hopefully you'll find a lot of information on my channel you can use. I really try hard to always include lots of fruits and vegetables in my videos. Thanks for watching and commenting, Phyllis

[@InternetPersond]

Wow, sounds delicious! A life hack apple cobbler recipe hidden inside a video about how to freeze apples. Miss Phyllis you’re the best.

[@zerodeconduite804]

Hiya! I just wanted to say thank you for doing this, taking the time. I love all your videos. Thank you for openly sharing with us and making us smarter :D

[@PhyllisStokes]

Hi nitiri x Biscuit toast is simply a biscuit cut into with a patty of butter placed on top and then toasted under the broiler. You are toasting the middle part of both sides of the biscuit. Usually made with left over biscuits. Thanks for asking.

[@truejava1]

I really love your video. I am trying to preserve a lot of apples for future use and am glad I found this. I especially love the way you peel the apples. I've considered using corers but have always used a paring knife. Thanks for sharing your secrets! You may have spared me from spending more money on stuff I'll have trouble cleaning anyway.

[@cathyslaton9998]

Ms,Phyllis,once again it looks great .You got Mr.Bucky spoiled with all that delicious food

[@A10TOES]

I make my Dutch Apple pies with Gala apples, they do well & bake up nicely.

[@Jesus_is_Lord_7]

I'm so glad I found your channel. I make a lot of smoothies and I appreciate you demonstrating how to cut and freeze these types of fruits. I always seem to use the same types of fruit. I do add greens sometimes but have never thought about freezing and using apples. I am looking forward to trying this. Thanks!

[@marilynmcclintock2974]

I use my potato peeler to peel my apples. I do not whittle with it, but use it as a peeler. Your cooked apples are what we call stewed apples up this way. If I can apple sauce, I do not peel and core them. Just take out the bad places, cut in pieces and cook, then run through the food mill or the attachment on the Kitchen Aid. Have a Happy Mother's Day. I have been fixing food all day for ours. Love your videos. Sue in Central Indiana

[@kimbelcher5685]

Great video. Never knew the history of the Gala apple. I'm from England so that was quite interesting. Thanks Phyllis :)

[@lydiashelton3089]

Thankyou for you're vidios and I loved the history and facts on freezing apples.

[@thewoodenspoon9679]

Freezing apples! Didn't know you could!! I am going shopping later today and I am going to buy a good amount of Gala apples and make my apple pie filling which is basically vet close to this video and freeze it!!! I home an like crazy but I do not like to can fruit other than tomatoes. Freezing my fruit pie fillings will save me so much time!!! Thank you so much for posting this!! ❤️

[@rickiepierce8630]

Miss Phyllis have you ever tried Fuji apples? I purchase mine from The Korean Market. They were developed in Japan and are very very large. They are so sweet and delicious.

[@PhyllisStokes]

We love the Fuji apples and get them when available at the grocery store.

[@tammyhanson7843]

I live in Northwest Washington State and I have 3 apple trees and 5 cherry trees in my orchard. One apple tree is a Fuji. I’ll be picking off the Fuji tree today hopefully and I do agree that they are an exceptional apple 🍎

[@robertalee2]

You can't beat Fuji. They are sweet and crisp. That is just about everything I want in an apple and I do love Gala's too. There is an old fashion Apple called a Stamen that I am also very fond of. Most of my apples cone from the orchards near Hendersonville, NC.

[@PhyllisStokes]

abbygirl, you'll find videos on smoothies on my website. Up top under the video is the description and I've added the link to my website in blue. Click on this link and it will take you to my website, then click on Breakfast Really Fast and you'll find several videos on smoothies. This morning our smoothie was: banana, apple, black grapes, peanut butter and almond milk. Hope this helps. All my videos from youtube are on my website by category. Phyllis

[@Shelly.1962]

Hi Philis Really love your videos ...youve given me some wonderful ideas .Thank you so much !! :)

[@janettesinclair6279]

I love Gala apples too, and always look for them in the supermarket. Cox's Orange Pippin have a wonderful sweet flavour too, but they are a good bit smaller. Mmmm!

[@cindyhicks8674]

Hi Phillis we eat this all the time and live it. My mom always made them for us. I don’t know if you have tried them on cottage cheese but it is scrumptious too. If we don’t have apples for the cottage cheese we use cranberry sauce with the cranberries. I was surprised on how good. Thank you! 🙏🏻

[@marylou1934]

God Bless you. Get well soon.

[@lindastansell37]

That scoop reminded me of tupperware. I still have a lot of tupperware. Havent bought any since the 80's. I have foud some at yard sales

[@carolelsberry4492]

Also when you do peel the apple you can cook the peeling then use the water in baking or to freeze your apples in. When I have to peel my apples I make sure they are washed good then run the peels though my food processor and add them back into the apples that way no waste plus you get the benefit of the peeling where most of the vitamins and minerals are and the fiber.

[@Everythingfreshandsassy]

I love Gala's, but I really love the Fuji apple! They are great for everything, especially when I make my apple cider! :D

[@nitirix771]

Hi thanks 4 your reply however there are many types of biscuits so my question is what biscuit is it your using?as the biscuit i see in your video dont think i have come across before. thankyou nitiri

[@robertalee2]

Everything you do + a spritz of lemon juice works wonders. Just try it you'll like. Ohhhh! How I love biscuits and stewed apples. Mmmm. I can taser this all the way through the Internet.

[@1994abbygirl]

Do you have a video on your apple drink or smoothy you make every morning?? Great idea, my apple tree is loaded this year.. Thanks!

[@1950jimmyg]

Never had biscuit toast with apples. Will definitely try.

[@ds525252]

Thank you for the lesson 👍😁

[@j.k.parsons3095]

Phyllis, I watched three of your videos and subscribed; great information. The first video I watched was about how to freeze onions, which is the bain of Chef's and Head Cook's in the North East; particularly Vidalia's so thank you and I will try your method. As for the elusive fruit fly, allow me to repay you for your knowledge with this bit of info: Years ago, a Bartender I worked with was confronted with a wooden bar stained with and lined by tequila and rum - (Fruit flies were swarming the bar and both interfering with his work, customer enjoyment and had started to invade my kitchen. We worked together for some days until it dawned on one of my young cooks that the little buggers swarmed the plate he used to keep his glass of recipe tequila on. I and the bartender placed a small amount - (a thin layer) - on a saucer, covered it tightly with plastic wrap and poked several tiny holes in it with a toothpick. The result was astounding, and we started placing several around the restaurant; the level of fruit flies dropped exponentially withing a few days. I just though the idea might intrigue you, as I have tested it further and both sugar water and certain fruit juices work quite nicely as well.

[@PhyllisStokes]

Good information, enjoyed this story. I usually only find a couple of fruit flies after I go to the farmer's market but two can be as annoying as 50. Thanks again.

[@murielcaiado5638]

[@MoonlightDawnMoolightDawn]

FAB -- I'll be trying this - thanks!

[@jlantz58]

Phyllis did you learn most of your cooking ways from your mother or Grandmother. I love watching your ways of preparing and saving food for two.

[@PhyllisStokes]

I learned a lot from my mother, grandmother and my older sister who is an amazing cook.

[@taigaforest..]

Hi Phyllis can you please tell me (can raw apples be frozen)? without cooking them , have a lot of them I don't cook them I want to use them for my smoothies but they're going to go bad before I use them all Thank you -

[@PhyllisStokes]

If you are only using them for smoothies it's probably fine to just freeze them. They will turn to mush probably but if they are going in smoothies it would not matter. I would not keep them frozen for more than a month or two.

[@howieMaori]

Thank you for sharing ; ) I use a spud peeler

[@HomeofGoldRush]

Hello, I am new to the whole fruits and vegetables freezing/preserving idea. Can I use this method to process Granny Smith apples too? Asian pears are also in season right now and I have some beatuful Singo Pears, do you know if pears can be done like this too? I would really like to make my fruits and veggies last as I just went to the farmers market two days ago and bought TONS of awesome fruits and veggies to eat. This years I think we are going to have a long growing season in Cali due to the massive amount of water we got from 2016/17's winter weather, so I want to save as much goodies as I can in this short time that the different produce are in season. Thanks for your show-and-tell.

[@PhyllisStokes]

You can do pears the same way as the apples. I would suggest getting the book "Putting Food By" from Amazon (There is a link on my website). This book is the same one I have used since the mid 1970's it's very thorough.

[@cathywhite9198]

I love to watch your videos Miss Phyllis and mr. Bucky what is devotions

[@thelittlefairylady9757]

That looks so delicious

[@nitirix771]

Hi what i ment 2 say was what type of biscuit is it?cos there are loads of different types thanks

[@steph04769]

That looks so delicious!

[@hanniballecter3293]

Brilliant

[@daydreambeliever6603]

Phyllis will cooking the apples in the pressure cooker work ok?

[@PhyllisStokes]

My experience is that apples are very hard to get right in the pressure cooker. Some apples cook quickly and some take longer to cook. If cooked too long they become applesauce. You have to experiment to see what will work and be willing to accept applesauce if you get it wrong in the beginning.

[@missyretzlaff758]

Gala Apples are my favorite eating apples!!! I don't cook with them because they fall apart but I just love to eat em

[@bettymahoney8371]

Thank you

[@nitirix771]

what is biscuit toast? never heard of it?

[@nezzie291541]

Hey Phyllis. How do you freeze butter? Also how do you freeze eggs? You are Amazing!!!!

[@PhyllisStokes]

Freezing butter is very easy just stick it in the freezer, I leave it in the box it came in. Never have frozen eggs even though I do remember folks freezing them in ice trays back in the 1970's. I don't think it works to freeze them in the shell because they might break from the expanding when frozen.

[@nitirix771]

ok thankyou for your reply

[@MarysPlace]

Phyllis to get rid of fruit flies get a water bottle add apple cider vinegar about 1/4 cup and 1 tablespoon of dish soap and place that by your sink it will go in it and drown.

[@TripleG69]

Hi, I'm diabetic so can i skip the sugar? 😎

[@josiechavez652]

Can I freeze the Apple and use them for Christmas in a fruit salad

[@PhyllisStokes]

+Josie Chavez Apples will not be crispy after freezing.

[@debbiealtman4572]

If I peeled them the way you do with knife I'd peel off way to much apple. Never was too good at peeling apple with a knife. I use a peeler. Been peeling apples for a very long time. Thanks for the video.

[@PhyllisStokes]

I also now have one of those little plastic peelers that uses a straight edge razor blade, it works much faster than peeling with a paring knife.

[@latinladylove4925]

Have you ever made plantians?

[@PhyllisStokes]

I fried some in butter a few years ago, have not tried them since.

[@latinladylove4925]

I moved ro Florida from Texas had never tried them I am hooked very different Latino foods here. Love ur videos

[@annaburns4526]

Hi Phyllis, for that pain in the butt fruit flies just get your vacuum with the hose att. and suck them right out of the air!! You can even make a game out of it lol!

[@karenpatterson6972]

Apples don't last in my house.my grandson eats them alot.😊

[@torgeirmolaug196]

Why not use an old fashioned potato peeler? Much quicker and less waste.

[@heroldsluder7434]

Gala is a good apple but I prefer the red delicious better.

[@nezzie291541]

On frugal lady parsnip burger will say you didn't peel those apples close enough. Lol

[@debbiealtman4572]

Nothing wrong with apples when they turn brown. They taste fine to me when brown.

[@estellebutler7601]

I do use fruit fresh on all fruit..looks better. Sorry. Just me
