Can we just appreciate how he's using a Christmas song for the background music? ❤️

Excellent channel. I really love your style. Its all incredibly wonderful and takes me back to simpler times in my life filled with more wonder and imagination. Thank you.

Bread only became important when agriculture started. But real bread as your making is so much better than what we have now.

I noticed with the “hand quern” (the smaller one, not water powered) that with the first grinding the grain looked reasonable for making porridge. If one were a bit creative and lazy, porridge left to sit for a few days, with water and a bit more added could become basically sourdough thus adding a bit of levening. Am I off base to think that leavened bread was also possible?

What a wonderful experience it must be to be able to grow up there. Your little ones are truly fortunate

I just found your channel, sir. Beauty and a wealth of information! Thank you! I just recently purchased a hand wheat grinder. The idea seemed wonderful... until the reality of the work set in. Now, I'm pondering more the planning women did for their meals. They didn't just suddenly decide to bake some bread product and retrieve their bag or jar of wheat. There was purpose & intent & planning in everything. And isn't it a wonder that we have so many modern conveniences today ... and yet, we complain of having less time? 🤔 I'm thinking we need to rethink our priorities. ....grinding ones own flour or discovering the manual method for so many things can cause one to be quite reflective.

First watch by me. It was very interesting. Loved the gardening with your little helpers. That interests me being a gardener myself. Also loved the sugar sack clothing. Noticed your hand made shoes. So cool. Will be watching more. When I was a child our school in Norsewood did a reinactment of Viking dances for I think it was 100 years celebrations. Now I don’t live in the north island but loved it at the time. Love from New Zealand.

It is wonderful to see your videos as a reenactor specializing in food at that age. The filming is outstanding! Thank you for sharing your videos.

Nothing better than your own home-baked bread and the smell and taste makes your mouth water. What we buy in the supermarket is often tasteless and not really nutritious. Great Video as always from my favorite Viking here on KZfaq. Thank you Ramuni for sharing.

Wow, I enjoyed that video! I’m a retired chef, & have baked loads of different breads over the years. Still bake them at home. The critics are harder! Back to your bread. Thanks to your very good description, & great visuals, & audio, I was there with you! Your cheese topping, looked pretty scrumptious also! Thanks for the lesson! Keep your smiles on!

I truly hope that you go viral and get millions of subscribers. ❤

Hello Ramuni this is the first time I have watched your video. It was quite moving to watch you and your children planting the garden. The joy in such a simple pleasure. Also fascinating to see how the grains were milled. Beautifully filmed also. I look forward to watching many more. Thankyou Nadia from Australia

Great content. Thank you for the journey! ❤

Beautiful video! i enjoyed it. Thanks

Great Video, thankyou for putting it together.

That was excellent! Thank you. You are appreciated.

Ramuni thank you sooo much for this video, for all the work that you do I love your channel, I deeply appreciate all that you do👍

Once again an amazing video from you! Thank you for this time :D

Watching your video and listening to your warm voice is like wrapping yourself in your favourite blanket by a fireplace

Brother, I subbed almost immediately. I have never seen your channel, so I'm glad the algo gave it to me. This was amazingly well done, from the period work to the instructions to the research. You're going to do so well. Cheers and health!

Great video bro. Keep on grinding💪

What a lovely video! Thank you for sharing your beautiful culture! Greetings from Brazil.

Thank you for making this video! It was really lovely, well filmed, great balance between footage, you talking to us and the background music as well as being very informative. Very enjoyable, thanks!

Lovely video! Very good job!

well done thank you. educational, calming and pure and simple. like the music the scenery and history as well. more please!!

Love your videos Ramuni - thanks - I could almost smell the bread you made here. I'm sure the bread was quite good after all the labor you needed to get the flour by hand. Would love to try getting my hands on some hand mill stones to try this myself. The work you put into these videos is greatly appreciated - I always look forward to your next video to see how you will entertain all of us differently. Your videos are very evocative with music, nature, and at times the very nature of the sounds of whatever you are working on in that particular video. Also - love hearing you work with your daughter in the garden. :)

Lovely video in the Viking settlement.I love making bread and appreciate the hard work that must have gone into grinding your own flour. Great work,thank you from Scotland.

Here for inspiration. Thank you! Wonderful content on this chanel.

thank you for this interesting video. We enjoy watching accurate historical productions.

Amazingly interesting ! It's always unbelievable to remind how long everything took and how much efforts were needed for simple things at thoses times.

Great video! I enjoyed watching the process. Best of luck on your growing channel! Sköl

I so enjoyed this video so very much. Making bread stimulates all of the senses. The sound of the stones grinding,.... the feel of the flour and the patting together of the flat bread... and the smell of the cooking bread,... the mixing of the spreads for the bread. You inspired me!!!! I am going to look for my own quern to grind my grains. This what such a pleasure to watch. I thank you for giving me such a wonderful experience. As usual,.... your time and your beautiful artistic presentation is much, much appreciated.

Thank you for this wonderful history lesson!

This was beautiful video very intersting i love your hand made wooden bowls and natural fibre cloths .

Good video! It is amazing to think about the ingenuity they had! Someone had to imagine the concept, then figure out the mechanics, then build it! No trade school back then! Amazing! Cheers!

Well narrated, u drew me into the movie and imagined the lifestyle u describe. I surely would be so happy to sit with u and enjoy your bread snack and the environment. Thank u for sharing!

Really enjoyed watching!!! Such great history.

You just changed my vision of my future, you added a new point whatI would like to experience. Thank you for this mesmerising video

This was such a lovely quality peaceful and informative video. I thank you for this and your time ❤

That was brilliant! I'm still amazed at the level of technological advancement displayed in the watermill, it's very impressive to think about that kind of machine being used in the Viking era. I will definitely have to plan a visit to Bork next time I travel to Denmark! I can almost smell your flatbreads cooking! 😄 Thank you for sharing my friend, it's an honour and a pleasure to be able to go on these journeys with you.

Det er super fedt min ven.. fortsæt det gode arbejde !

Amazing video!!!

That flour mill is amazing!

Cool video!

This is an amazing video. Keep it up. Subscribed 🎉

Love your channel. You and your bread got a new subscriber ❤❤

Qué bonito quedó el vídeo :) me encanta la música ,las peques plantando y las imagenes del molino 😊 Bueno y el pan, claro.Que rico está el pan!

Thank you! cheers

Very nice, a great video and fascinating to learn how our forebears lived. 👍🏻

Absolutely fascinating, new subscriber from far north Idaho

Thank you!

Another great video. thank you for sharing us your video. Last year one of the reanactors at Ribe let me tast the fat bread and gave me the names of the ingredients en sometimes i make them. i use Emmer wheat. The watermill in Bork is beautiful, simpel ,but nice thechnique, still in use at windmills today

I just started watching but damn the camera quality is insanely good! Looks sharper than my eyesight😆

was a simple life with simple food and we must go to this way of life as quik is possible, otherway is no chance to survive with chemicals....greetings from Romania👍

Going to have to make bread now. I won't be milling my own grain due to not having a quern. However, I make a pretty good loaf of bread. Thank you for bringing us on your journey.

Just found your channel today. Do you provide recipes for making your bread! I also shared with family and friends. Have a wonderful day! I really enjoyed your video!! 😊👍

The stone needs to be sharpened at an angle so the grooves are shallower at the edges than in the center. That forces the flour out and prevents the whole thing from being stopped up.

Great video! I will make some flatbread 😊

Im jealous! Whenever I i try to make homemade bread, ugh, it never works out right. Thankls for the video, I love learning history

A course weave linen works fine as a sieve, also called a bolt from the phrase to bolt the wheat. A willow hoop with a slightly baggy, droopy cloth sewn on can work or a very finely constructed basket that allows flour through but not whole grains can work as well. You did good with what you had. Saxon and viking farmers were often isolated and like American pioneers had to make do with what was available.

Parabéns pelo vídeo e secessso sempre

Loved your video and I'm planning on giving your bread a try. I grind my grains at home, i have an electric grinder and a hand crank stone grinder. So flour, salt and beer?

Fann just nu er video, intressanta! Tack! När vi kör reenactment bakar vi tunn-bröd av lika delar korn, råg och vete (vatten och salt) samt ibland litet honung. Gräddar i torr panna utan fett. Vi bakar dem också tunnare än de ni bakar här. Serverar dem ofta med skör-ost kryddad med salvia. Ska prova era bröd!

Great viedo brother.. After sur names were given to people sometimes based on their occupation, mine is fittingly enough for this viedo ..Miller..

In Hamburg-Farmsen, close to where I live, there's an archaeological path in the middle of an apartment block. They reconstructed a pit house, a wooden well, garden, a ritual site and a big earthen oven and put up signs explaining the life in the iron age. That's because during the construction of said apartments in the 1950s they found remnants of a settlement from that time. Including an earthen oven which had charred bread rolls in it. And the fantastic thing is they were diamond shaped and very similar to the ones you could buy at the bakery around the corner. As we say in Germany "Das Auge isst mit." (The eye is also eating.) Meaning a meal should not only taste but also look good. People often think of the food of medieval and ancient times' simpler folk as bland and uncreative. Maybe because many movies and documentaries paint the picture of the bony and dirty peasant and his family sharing a pot of grey gruel or porridge. Everyone's eating from the same bowl for they can only afford that one. But that wasn't the case. The day to day meals sure were simple - today we also don't have a multi-course feast every single day - but it was very diverse and most of the days just as appetizing as (and for most way healthier than) what we eat today.

Patience is the name of the game for ancient people.

vikining prmitive how its made.

Bork looks great. When my family is on holiday in Blavand I'll convince them to make a visit there. I'm amazed of the craftsmenship of that mill. I've only seen 18th and 19th century ones yet and they are way closer to that one than to our industrial mills nowadays. I've only been to Haithabu (Hedeby) yet, but getting interested into reenactment lately I'm planning to see many other reconstruction museums in the near future. Any recommendations?

New and subscribed here i just found you by accident ,got a few things to catch up upon

Glædelig jul😉

Excellent informaion and demonstration. Yes that looked incredible and I am totally jealous. What type of cheese did you put on those flat breads? Nate

As for making bread i use a clay cook pot on its side with a flat iron plate put inside and use beer to raise the bread and honey for sweetness.

Is your background music, Christmas music? Beautiful.

Your eyes are beautiful! Thank you for sharing your bread recipe.

What was the name of the area where the mill was, you mentioned it was an interesting place to visit. Just found your channel and enjoyed your narrative so I LIKED and SUBSCRIBED. Well wishes from Texas.

Newcomer here. Enjoyed your video, reenactment & teaching. I am curious why other than the drone filming, is the majority of the filming so upclose? It's nice occasionally but not constantly. Hard to get a perspective when everything is filmed so up close. Just my opinion & I'm sure it won't make any difference. I'll check out your other videos. Perhaps this one is an anomaly. Thanks, it was interesting.

I have fresh wheat berries and a small mill. I'll have to set it to coarse and try this. Fresh flour, salt and beer, right? The topping looked like a soft cheese with herbs. That looked good too.

Hello, it’s the first time I’ve seen your channel. It’s LOVELY!!! Do I hear an Irish accent there, Or am I imagining it? I dunno. It’s a very interesting channel to watch. I’m subscribed & am watching more videos. What country are you in…Sweden? Thanks.

Bread looks delicious. Bread made from freshly milled whole grain has 40 out of 44 nutrients needed for life!

Thank YOU for replying. I’m in Booubyjan Queensland Australia. I was thinking about basic bread making…do you think the grains/flour were soaked & allowed to ferment naturally (sourdough) before cooking on the hearth? It’d make the grain softer & easier to eat too, let alone more nutritious. Who knows. It’s just a thought, being a exploratory cook at home. I really like what you present. Do you have a video on how to make your cloth under pants? I’m learning SO MUCH. I’ve travelled once overseas (in my 40’s to Finland Sweden Norway….I LOVE that region. I’d go again if I won the lottery!!! Thanks again

Did they experiment with sourdough at all? I make regular sour dough and kefir grain sour dough. I'm also curious about the type of wheat you are using. Is it like Einkorn?

Tak for dejlig video. Hvem laver den lille håndmølle? Er der evt. en video hvor jeg kan se den blive lavet, eller et sted i Danmark den bliver vist frem?

really nice video but maybe zoom out bit and have less of a close up

Is the type of grain you use an older variety or a modern grain

Now I'm going to have to bake me some bread.

There, where you are situated during the video, is this also in Bork ( because it doesnt look like´) or somewhere else ?

It is better to be a warrior in the gardens, than a gardener in battle…..I can smell the bread you made here in Colorado

Would the Vikings have used rye more than wheat? Would they have used barley or ancient grains that are no longer used?

Did the Vikings ever sprout there grains for bread making?

how long does a millstone like this last under permanent use ?

Nysgjerrig, Abbonerte jeg Hei fra Holland J

They were also the Lost tribes of Israel w many others that lost their heritage as they scattered up Over the Caucasus mountains into the northern most regions- safe and blessed

The old saying .The daily grind 😂 And flour with stone bits to grind down your teeth.

🎩Hi. There is nothing better than the smell of freshly cooked bread.

Not a lot of talk about the slaves I notice 😅

класс. на ютубе есть еще родики с видеодневника "один в прошлом" на русском языке

& The original Vikings were melanated black ancestors of the African Diaspora before the Last Ice Age sum 20K years ago when Caucasians didn’t even exist until that glacial event 👁️⚫️🌍🌎🌏👽☠️✨

Vikings did not invent mills, far from it. So nothing extraordinary then.
