@exaviere 9 ай бұрын
My family had one of those hand-cranked ice cream makers too, and would bring it out for neighborhood events in the summer; the real trick was parents convincing their kids to turn the crank, which we were eager to do when the reward was ice cream! I think the bucket was mostly submerged in the ice, which would've helped Ann's freeze faster and get colder!

Well - my guess is that most of these recopies came from noble kitchens that had a lot of people working in them. Alone, this is insane, but if you have a few people that make the recepy and some apprentices or kitchen aids that you can chug the peeling of the almonds to, it is quite doable.

Instead of appliances for whipping and pounding they had kitchen maids! Things like that were only done in big households with many kitchen servants and only on special occasions. It was to demonstrate your wealth (kind of like rich people might serve a 1000.- pound bottle of wine or wagyu beef, lobster and truffle mushrooms). Manual labour was cheap since they didn’t pay them much. And while they didn’t have modern appliances they had some techniques and clever utensils that would have made the work easier for them then if you attempt it today without having the utensils or knowledge. Like they might have had a mortar and pestle suited to this specific task as well as a better technique and just more practice. No Offenes to Ann Reardon who has done better job using that mortar then I ever would, but if you for example see a Thai chef using a mortar and pestle to make a Thai curry you will be amazed of how better job they are doing then you yourself ever will. And that’s because they do this task all the time, know the best technique and have a mortar optimised for that task. Anyway, it would still be a huge undertaking, but they would have known how to get it done and it would have been a suitable highlight to show off the wealth of the household.

And it's nice to see how trusting/willing they are to just eat these things that may not taste great. That knife bit was scary though!

This made me realize that my family makes/made dessert in a very old-school way. We used to leave butter out in a covered tray. It will last about a week, so long as the weather is temperate, and is always soft for easily folding into dough. For mortar and pestle - It shouldn't shatter if you alternate between light pounding and grinding by putting some shoulder weight on it and rotating. Although my mortar is bronze, which certainly is a little more durable. Hand whipping is exhausting regardless but whipping it in an oval motion instead of back and forth helps to aerate the cream. "slipping" almonds as we called it is best done by a grandparent who somehow does it at lightning speed. That's the only easy solution I know lol kudos on your hard work and dedication - that "sandwich" is certainly more ambitious than anything we ever made!

Old Timer's Tip: When I was very young and visiting my grandmother, I remember her mixer broke down earlier in the week, so to make the cake she'd promised to bring to church, she creamed the butter, flour, sugar, and salt together with a wooden spoon against the side of the mixing bowl, as what I now see was an ad hoc mortar and pestle. I'm pretty sure old Fanny Farmer cookbooks listed this step in many of their recipes.

this is wonderfully timed for me because I actually got to use a hundred-year-old ice cream maker just two days ago! it's a wooden bucket that you fill with ice and rock salt similar to what you used, but there's a crank you attach to the freezing container with a paddle inside that whips it as you crank. Still pretty labor intensive, it took twenty solid minutes and we needed someone else holding it in place while cranking, but the result was absolutely worth it and very fun to experience.

The trick with the mortar isn't to smash, but rather use your wrist and a twisting motion to pull product under the pestle. The bottom of most molcahetes is usually textured to assist in the grinding process. Mine is made of dark black volcanic rock, and the pores of the rock make grinding a breeze. (If you can ever consider grinding '°a breeze" lol(

That is impressive. The amount of time involved - pure dedication to your craft. And your family’s dedication to eating potentially disturbing foods. The nervous “is it good? Should I have grabbed this much?” lol There was a television show here in the US several years ago called Frontier House. It was a reality/history show that had modern families trying to live like pioneers on the new frontier in the 1880s. One of the wives made the comment she wasn’t prepared for how difficult cooking would be, with a large part of the problem being arm strength (or lack thereof).

This is so impressive! It’d still take an insane amount of time using modern day appliances and even with some store bought items like ice cream and puff pastry

Note that the mortar and pestle were giving a better consistency of paste compared to the blender. I still use my grandmothers mortar and pestle for certain tasks for exactly that reason. Same way, I use her apple saucer to make apple sauce with a much superior texture. Preparing delicious food is a way to manifest one’s love for those who will enjoy the food, and any extra effort for an extra special result shows the extra love.

As she was talking about it as an antique gadget, my immediate thought was about mofongo - something that is still to this day typically prepared with mortar and pestle. It makes it form the way it’s supposed to. And it is a large quantity of something prepared this way. But it’s worth it cuz it makes it turn out right, and it’s delicious.

I love that you get the whole family involved! This reminds me of a wonderful book, "Consider the Fork" that views culture through cooking utensils. People who had multiple servants to whip the cream were considered rich: one person would work until tired, then the next would step in. However, you had to do all of it yourself!

I love these old recipe videos. That you actually go through the hard work of using time period accurate methods is so amazing (I learn a ton, I honestly had no idea the mortar and pestle was used as a food processor). Plus you have enough knowledge and experience to understand the bits that arent included in the recipe and can actually make them work (respect: that is super impressive). When I watch your channel on these old recipes, I actually feel like Im getting a decent idea of what these recipes would have looked like at the time.

This was both an amazing feat of cookery and film making, but an amazing desert. (I'm certainly glad all the family liked it- Imagine if the pastry was quite off from modern tastes or something!) Excellent work yet again.
