Preparing Three Dishes from 1803

[@EarlyAmerican]

How do you feel about me not adding music in the background? Good idea or bad? Let me know ^_^ Also I swear that I haven't forgotten about the soap opera it's just that Early American started out as a cooking channel so that's the focus but I will definitely release part 3 eventually!!

[@davidfoster2620]

I don't know but sometimes i think it helps but not always

[@tracys169]

I like the no music, then again, because the sound of dishes, shifting flour, chopping, other cooking activites etc is soothing for me. That's my asmr :)

[@DeetheFirst]

As someone who's hearing blurs when there are a lot of different sounds, I prefer no music, especially if there is any explanation.

[@elizabethraitanen5057]

I am not sure. I like the cooking sounds.

[@artstocker60]

The music is nice, but, I think, the sounds of the chopping, pouring water and moving the pots and Dutch oven about made background music unnecessary.

[@markgoddard2560]

No music please! The cooking and silence is a genuine reflection of the time, as are the sounds of the fire and food preparation. It’s an island of calm reflection and the steak recipe a mouthwatering contemplation in a busy day. As for the romance, that is both instructional and pleasing to watch as it is a part of the American culture as the cooking. In fact, shopping transactions, buying, selling, callers, and day to day maintenance of equipment, hygiene and living, is what makes this such an interesting channel to watch for me three thousand miles away in England. Let your work develop naturally. It’s a lovely channel to watch.

[@winnieskees9622]

Completely agree! Love all aspects of the show!

[@EarlyAmerican]

No more music it is ^_^ Thank you everyone for sharing your feedback! Honestly I prefer it without music too.

[@marshablasingame7695]

I think the natural sounds of the kitchen are fine and music may take away from the authenticity of the show.

[@leaht4505]

I agree, the natural sounds are so soothing❤️

[@marschlosser4540]

If I made that much racket in the kitchen, I'd be sleeping with the horses--10 miles down the road a rancher's place. Bikers here are generally polite if only because every Mami (granny) is well armed and the 2 biggest rules in Indian Country are, you do not scare the kids and you do not bug the old folks. If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

[@joshenyou360]

The absence of music allows for the full experience hearing the clanking of the pots, stirring of the wooden spoons etc. What a wonderful, eye opening video. I may NEVER complain about cooking again.

[@chrissahar2014]

I call this the "music" of cooking which when you are in a quiet enough environment is quite satisfying.

[@brendawei7356]

And not to mention the.sounds of the fire itself. What would be cozy along with, would be to hear a good rain outside the cabin.

[@sandraallen8832]

I loved every second of that - no talking, no music just lovely relaxing kitchen sounds - absolutely heavenly. Thankyou

[@Smiler2724]

The elite they know very well the life living with mother nature is better than the life living in crowded cities. They build these cities for slave system to keep the people in control. And those lucky people are those people living in village and grow their own food. Nature sounds is better than music .

[@phillipwhite8775]

I moved into a 200 year old farmhouse 30 years ago with the dream of living this lifestyle.Being poor and broke helped me achieve this way of life. My farmhouse had no kitchen , no running water, no bathroom. They had a cookhouse in the backyard , away from the house. Water was carried by bucket from local spring a quarter mile away. I always wondered how they cooked there meals without having a refrigerator or stove. After 30 years, I installed a bathroom ,plumbing, up dated electricity ,and a new kitchen. I have a big garden to can my food, chickens for for fresh eggs . I 'm still broke and poor ,but I would not change this lifestyle for anything. I just wish I had a wife like Justine.

[@amysbees6686]

To keep your milk fresh for longer, place your bottled milk in a jug or basin of water. Water cools your milk. That is what our old Irish folks used to do before they had electricity.

This looks absolutely delicious and was very relaxing to watch☺ I definitely prefer the no music. The sound of cooking is calming to me. I remember I use to take a nap at the time my mom be preparing dinner💖 It always made me fall asleep and than the smell would wake me right back up especially if she was making bacon lol.

[@LindaCasey]

Twilight Warrior .. yes, while moms were slaving away in the kitchen, doing all the housework and washing up, their beloved families were taking lovely little naps on the couch awakening to the smell of bacon wafting through the air. Just kidding .. but this is precisely why there was a woman's revolution in the 70s. Heck, I wanted ME a wife! 🤣

[@dougedoug2105]

[@amysbees6686]

Love watching this cooking demo, even without narration or music! Hearing that meat sizzle in the pan was music to my ears! The captions relating to the recipes were sufficiently informative, without being distracting.

I definitely like it without music. The sounds are authentic and my attention was more to the actual preparation & cooking than being distracted by other sounds. Looking forward to more videos like this.

[@NATALIEKING1976]

What is most appealing to me is no tv noise. No radio noise. Natural noises are soothing to the empaths that watch your show.

We Stumbled upon early american on KZbin when looking for something other than news and other junk! My husband and I truly enjoy all the videos, cooking with the music relaxing and enjoyable to watch. Justine and Ron romance (3 part) with their love for each other when cooking and planning life together. Although we live in New Jersey too far to visit Illinois...we look forward to more and more videos with Justine and Ron. Thank you for taking the time to show your passions for this historical part of American History!

[@karenhummel49]

Thanks for the new video! Can't imagine all that cooking (3 meals a day) back then without a stove. Or running water. You should collaborate with the Townsend's and do a cooking show.

Once again thank you 😊🙏
