Less than a month now till Ron and I marry . Next week's video will be all about the wedding dress, which was modeled after this gown dated 1780 - 1785 chertseymuseum.org/search_collection?filter=jane%20bailey&item=19606 Do you all have any marriage advice? Please, let me know in the comments. And now! Back to these delicious apple fritters. At the end of the video you will find an image of the original recipe (or receipt as they used to be called) and modern instructions below. Thank you for watching. *Apple Fritters (Modern Domestic Cookery, 1829. Published in New York) 5 medium sized apples, peeled & cored Half a pint of ale 2 eggs, whisked 0.5 cups of flour 3 heaping tablespoons of sugar + more for sprinkling Half a teaspoon of nutmeg OR 1 tablespoon of cinnamon Lard, for frying After peeling and coring your apples slice them into disks/rounds. Prepare a batter by combining eggs, ale, sugar, nutmeg and flour until you've formed a thick batter. Coat the apple rounds in the batter by fully submerging them with a fork or your fingers. Carefully drop them into a skillet of hot lard set to medium heat. These cook quickly! Flip once one side is golden, which should take between 1-3 minutes. When both sides are golden remove from the oil and set aside. Sprinkle the top with more sugar. Use the sugar of your choice but powdered sugar would be an excellent choice for this. Enjoy!

I will have been married to the same man 39 years this Sunday. My best marriage advice is this: No matter how hard you may fight sometimes and no matter what for, when the fight has ended, let it go and remind yourselves why you got married in the first place. Best wishes to you both for a long and happy marriage.

So clever using the bayonet mounting end to core the apple slices.

Before I got married, I kept hearing people say, "Oh the honeymoon phase will end". I call that crap. It only ends if you let it. My grandparents & my husbands grandparents were married 70 yrs. before they passed away. My grandparents are gone, & my husband's grandma is gone, but they loved each other so much & still did silly & funny special things with each other. My advice is to keep investing in your marriage. Keep making each other laugh, & say I love you every night even when you dont feel like it, & remember you are each other's best friend & want the best for each other. When you go grocery shopping & he goes alone, he may not get the exact thing you need, but if he gets something close then you know he was trying & he was listening. Cherish every moment. ❤

Justine the apple fritters looks great. Thank you for the recipe. A marriage advice: Keep God always present in your marriage. Blessings for both of you.

I am rolling on the floor laughing. His bayonet as an apple corer! I. actually had a vision of some pioneer women actually doing this!

First time I've seen a bayonet used in cooking .... clever lass! 😁❤

My dog Jasmine, a yellow Labrador enjoyed listening to the show with me today. She really liked the crackling noises the most.

Our host is TOTALLY rocking that purple!

I can’t wait too see the wedding pictures!

Congrates on your coming wedding! I can recommend the first 62 years of marriage! There will be more years to come if my bride is willing to stick with me!

In a few weeks we'll have been married for 41 years. Ups and downs are life, faith and love (and patience) is the key. Love changes and deepens over time, making it richer. God bless you two on your journey as husband and wife ❤❤ btw, the bayonet use?! I laughed so hard, I once used my husband's tin snips while processing chickens😂

Your show always relaxes me, missed the chickens. Have been married since 1979, always told each other the truth, don’t keep things bottled up, talked about different stuff.

That looks delicious! 🤤

The apple fritters look absolutely delicious and I’m sure Ron will love them too! So excited for your wedding-wish I could be there! As far as advise is concerned-never go to bed angry! And it’s important to share your thoughts and feelings💕💕

You could put water on the peals and cores and make apple jelly or juice

Communicate….when you stop talking your mind takes over…and that’s not always a good thing….I’m going to try the apples fritters tomorrow for breakfast….can’t wait many blessings for a ver Happy Marriage….first time watching, now I’m hooked…love the video..thanks for bringing back some great history…💗

🤣😂🤣 Ron's bayonet as an apple corer had me cracking up 😂🤣 Love it 💓💓💓 Make use of what you've got available. I will definitely try this, although I don't have a bayonet, I'll have to suffice with a normal corer 🙃 The build up to the wedding must be getting intense with excitement, any nerves? I love your stuff but rarely comment, but the bayonet had me! 😂🤣🙃🤣 All the best from Australia 🇭🇲🦘🦘🙏🦘🦘🇭🇲

Be patient and kind to each other which I already witness with you two! ❤️

The recipe look amazing! ❤ keep up the good work!

A lot of old timers in my life who had long marriages would always say “don’t ever go to bed angry at each other”. I’ve only been married a year so the best advice I can give would be for the day. Advocating for yourself and what makes you and hubby happy on the big day should be top priority! No matter what that may look like to others. And just go with the flow. Even if it doesn’t go to plan, it makes for great stories to tell the kids and grandkids. Happy for you two!

Thankyou Ron for not getting mad at Justine!!! Maybe you could make her an apple corer?!

Thank you for the patronage and using my Maple Sugar in your recipe. Looks like the fritters came out amazing.

These fritters look yummy and healthier than the ones you can buy in the stores. Thank you for sharing. ❤😊❤

Those look amazing! I could all of them in one sitting!

My best marriage advice, there can only be 1 CFO. My wife and I almost didn't make it to our first anniversary because we were always fighting over money. Finally, I just turned the the checkbook over to her, only giving my advice when asked, and only spending what and when she said we could afford it. We are coming up on 49 years, 4 kids and 6 grandkids. And she is still our family's Chief Financial Officer!

Every time you peel something I’m thankful for my modern peeler, I would have cut every finger using a knife 😂

Just found your channel. I grew up in a small rural town. This is close to the way my grand parents lived. They had two houses next to each other with a smoke house in between. One had huge kitchen and the other had none. During the southern summers, they cooked in the kitchen and moved to the other house to eat and live. During the winter, they lived in the kitchen house to enjoy the warmth of the kitchen fireplace. By the time I was born, they had running water, power, stove. heat, frig and a tv.

Those look so GOOD!!! Ron’s going to be happy with this recipe 🤤

Be forgiving and loving. I think you two know each other well. That's a good foundation. This treat looks amazing.

Justine you had me at "fritters"! Thanks for this wonderful video! Much love and best wishes to you guys- Sharon from North Alabama

I love apple fritters

I love fritters!

The best piece of marriage advice I have for both of you is one word! LISTEN.❤

I so love the fabric of your apron and head wrap. The color looks so good.

The absolute most important advice for marriage or any important relationship is honesty. Secrecy will lead to mistrust and that kills a marriage. A big dose of daily kindness and compliments goes a long way as well. Blessings on your big day.

Enjoy you shows so much! You guys are the nicest people! That is what makes the shows extra special. Wish I could have tasted those apple fritters.

These fritters look absolutely amazing! 😃 And one bit of wedding advice I have (incidentally coming from someone who isn't married) is to never stop going on dates even after you're married. I have an uncle that has had dates nights with his wife once a week for YEARS, and he's told me that it's really deepened and strengthened their marriage. Never stop going on adventures together, never stop surprising each other, and never stop making new memories! 😊

Those look so yummy!! I think Ron will love them! Blessings.

Best wishes! At 56 years and counting, our relationship is better than ever! Always talk things through, be a team. Respect, patience, understanding and forgiveness go both ways. Sometimes it’s not easy but the joys will always outweigh the tough times. Good memories are forever. Make lots of them.❤

Add that to the 101 uses for the bayonet. Often, I've seen our reenactors using them for hot dogs or sausages lol. The marriage advice: One, don't go to bed angry. Two, never name call each other during an argument, that kind of battle is over and it defeats the purpose you two wanted to express. Three, it is OK to agree to disagree with the issues you both are passionate about. That is why we are different in some ways and similar in a lot of ways lol. Four, give yourself some space, a time to yourself. If a man says there is nothing wrong with a very broody expression, let him sort himself out. When he is ready, he will tell you. Or he realized he was upset about nothing, wasted energy on something unrealistic. Five, tell your spouse at the end of the day, I love you! Six, practice listening. If you don't understand ask him to rephrase it again so you can understand him. We just don't have the same mental dialog all the time. Seven, be patient and be understanding but not to the point you neglect yourself. Eight, don't EVER try to change your spouse's lifestyle to fulfill YOUR expectations. You married him for what he is, for good for worse but know when it harmful for you and your marriage. Nine, when a spouse give you the hard NO!, she or he means it but won't hurt to ask again later, just to see if they changed their minds later on. Better stop for now lol.

Those apple fritters look delicious, and i love the use of the bayonet as an apple corer, that's being resourceful for sure!

Are you coring the 🍎 apples with a bayonet? 😅

Loved how you looked back to see if he was around before you used the bayonet…Too Funny! Your fritters looked delicious!

You look so pretty in your spring ensemble :) and those fritters look tasty

Those look perfect, Justine! Have a blessed week and I'll catch you in the Chew and Chat! xoxo

I can just imagine how delectable your cabin would smell after making these

15 years married. Here’s my advice. I know the old adage is “don’t go to bed angry” but I have found that saying “I love you and we’ll talk about it in the morning” is much more productive. Fatigue on the evening is a sure way to put gasoline on a fire and sleep tends to help you clear out a lot of the issues that probably wouldn’t normally be there. The other piece of advice. Communicate. Over communicate if you have to. And remember most of communication is listening and remembering what they’ve said. God’s blessings on your upcoming marriage!

Mmmmm, Yum!

This was the recipe that my grandmother used, I remember her making these over the wood stove, they were delicious.

My husband and I have been married for 18 years, and we abide by 2 unbreakable "rules": 1. When you get mad, which you will because you are human, resist saying anything to hurt the other (even if it means locking yourself in the bathroom for awhile) 2. Always remind yourself that you are different people with different ideas of doing things. That's okay and neither of you will change in all likelihood. Let those little things go. Congratulations!!! 🎉

I appreciate your videos very much. I have watched most of them and some I have watched multiple times. They are very relaxing. I have a high stress job and these are a life saver to me.

It really looks delicious my dear friend."and it's a simple recipe".(thank you very much,have a great day,see you again soon sweetie).👍❤️🤗

Those look divine! I love your beautiful head scarf today! I am going to try this, but instead of ale, I am going to use some Angry Orchard.

Love the head scarf and flushed cheeks. That will keep Ron interested along with the apple fritters.

I am new here and I love your videos! I live not too far from Williamsburg, Virginia so naturally I love all things early American history. This channel makes my heart happy :)

Hahahaha love the use of the Bayonette! Those look amazing. Yummy, wonder what they would be l Iike with vanilla ice cream 😋

One of my favorite things in historical novels is when they talk about every day life: for example when Claire talks about cooking things like molasses cookies in the Outlander novels. It's fascinating to me!

Congratulations! My husband and I will be celebrating 19 years in June. My advice is never stop trying to communicate and understanding each other. That is really important. I wish you both the best. 🎉❤

LOVE LOVE LOVE your head wrap Justine!!

The best advice we got when we were newly married was to take time to prioritize our relationship. Kids , day to day life, bad times can all put pressure on a couple and it’s important to make your realationship a priority so that when all is said and done, kids are grown , retirement, and so on you still like each other and enjoy being together. My husband and I have raised three kids. Had money issues and life issues and family trouble but through it all he still makes me laugh and I’ve never been happier in our 36 years together.

You are an amazing girl, and Ron is blessed to have you. Vice versa, both of you are an amazing couple. God bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏🌻🌻🌻💖💖. Don't let the world change you!!!❤

My husband and I will celebrate our 37th wedding anniversary on May 23rd. My best advise is to be open and honest about everything. You are each others best friends, cheerleaders and confidants. You should be able to depend on each other for anything and everything. Honesty, integrity and trust in your marriage is so important. Also, don’t forget why you fell in love in the first place and go on a weekly date! Even if it’s just a nice walk or a movie night at home where you snuggle on the sofa and share some popcorn! I still leave love notes for my husband in his car, or I sneak them in his jacket pocket. When he leaves to go hunting I sneak little snacks in his backpack. It’s the little things that you do for each other that keeps that flame of love burning.

That bayonet action is hilarious, and your apron is so cute, Justine. Calming historic recipe therapy.

AWESOME!!!! A "portable" 🍎 donut/ fritter!!!😊🤗🤗. You can walk around do chores and take like 3 of them with you on the road😊 and so simple ingredients. I'm definitely gonna try them. Thanks a million🤗💞💗

Apples look so pretty when cut horizontally, with the star in the middle.

These are the same as the apple fritters my grandmother and mom made when I was a kid! They are so good

These look yummy! I think the ale was used for the yeast? Marriage advice: Happily married for over 35 years here. My biggest note of advice for a new bride: Don't sweat the small stuff. My husband had a different idea of what a "clean house" looked like than I do. He's great and will help with housework when asked, but doesn't always notice it. It used to upset me he didn't notice... now (after having our son!) I don't "notice" as much as I used to either. 😄

COMMUNICATION IS KEY!!! ❤

Absolute genius to use a bayonet!! My son is a militaria collector and i know the bayonet u are using! His are too dirty tho...but im definately going to try to make fritters this way instead of chunking the apples up!! Yummy!! Thank u for another fun and fantastic video!

I was wondering 🤔 what to do with some Apples 🍎 I have……Good Idea 💡

lol, I loved it when I read “Ron’s bayonet was unguarded .” Too funny. Another great recipe, thank you for showing this. I’m always amazed at how they did things, I wouldn’t have had a clue before I started watching your channel. 43 years with the same man last month, never give up on your marriage, in tough times make sure to communicate, we only think we know what they are thinking. Good boss you both. Oh, where can I find your mailing address?

That green and purple color combo looks really pretty on you Justine and thank you for the video, I’ve always wanted to try and make these and now I think I shall. 😊

This dish is sort of universal, and I love to see it. I am from a very small country in Europe and my mom has been making these since I can remember. She calls them "jabuke u šlafruku". A literal translation of it is "apples in bathrobes".

LOVE the turban! Such a fun and beautiful accessory! Dolly Madison would be proud :)

I'm a fan of cuisine from around the world. I find your videos amazing, thank you very much

Awesome as always

I absolutely love your channel and ALL your videos. Tonight it got even better! I turned the volume way up and got fantastic ASMR! 🎉🎉 I do thank you! Oh those look delicious! 😮😊 Love from the Southern California desert 🏜

Love the videos. Great work and a life well lived. God bless.

Шикарное платье❤ Вы в нем будете просто прекрасны❤

Looks good and easy to make. Thank you!

Congrats on the wedding! I just love your channel and your dedication to all your followers!

Justine I can imagine you and Ron opening a small tavern/restaurant serving period food and drink. I would definitely come!

OMG. Those apple fritters look good. I can't wait to try them.

Keep talking to each other, keep loving each other, It will be the petty things mostly that cause arguments...remember your vows and forgive yourselves...its a work in progress...but it gets more and more comfortable with time. All the very best to you both ❤️❤️

Awesome socket bayonet apple cutter! And no matter what the century, apple fritters are always a classic.

Looks sooo yummy! I could see someone selling these at a fall festival. :)

These looked delicious thank you for sharing 😊

The dress in the link is beautiful - can’t wait to see your version!

Justine, what an ingenious apple corer! (I used my hubby's guitar slide once) LOL! I order maple sugar cakes from Quebec and then use a Microplane to grate it. I love the fritters! They aren't even deep-fried - so awesome! Can you talk about your scarf and apron on Chew and Chat? Your new outfits are fabulous!

❤

I get calm when I watch Justine cook

Thank you, looks really good. Will be trying this

What a neat hanging cast iron skillet to fry with over hot coals!

Those look out of control good. Also liking the garb and such. Good one.

Omg those look So Yum!

tolerance and kindness ! I love the book : The Four Agreements Best wishes to you and Ron!

Finally a use for a bayonet Wish you and Ton all the happiness you deserve

Thank you

I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets lately & this video made me want to raid my kitchen cabinets & make apple fritters.😋
