    I love the fact that you show “real life” in your videos. They do not looked “staged” as some do. I don’t stick around for those. I enjoy your family.

    Something I have heard of but have never tried making is beurre manié (French "kneaded butter") to thicken a gravy. It's kind of a cold roux--you make a paste of equal parts by volume of soft butter and flour and knead them together, then add them to your hot liquid. It keeps lumps from forming. You can make extra and store it in the refrigerator for up to a month or longer in the freezer. If you make gravy frequently, it might be considered a convenience food!

      I was going suggest just this, I do it all the time, works great especially when that gravy isn’t quite thick enough.

    I pretty much love your videos no matter what you're doing Jennifer. I appreciate that you make them longer than some of them that are out there. I am tired of living in an abbreviated rushed world so I enjoy being able to listen to a longer video. How you manage to upload the longer ones is beyond me given your limitations there. Know that it is appreciated.
    The grocery hauls help me to know little snacks and things that might be out there that I can have too, the food ones are always fun for me even if you make something you've made 40 bazillion times before. Those help to establish the basic structure of life. The homeschooling ones bring me great joy as I see the family learning to learn. A lifelong desire to learn is what makes for true education and for a degree of satisfaction that non-learners wouldn't understand. I just enjoy listening to you. I find your voice soothing. During periods of terrible stress such as I'm under right now with a an illness that's taking a while to treat, it's very nice to find one of your videos and put it on to be soothed. Now I know the kids are going to roll their eyes if you read this to them. They're going to roll their eyes and go "Puhleeze" but that's their job for now. One day they will understand. Thanks a bunch.

    Jennifer, I love your videos! I'm a 63 year old woman from scratch cook, baker and love making desserts. My Dad passed away April 6 (I'm my parents caregiver) Dad was my taste tester, idea maker, lol. I've been watching some of your cooking videos, and I was able to bake a red velvet cake and actual a whole meal ( with veggies). My mom and hubby have been so sweet. It had been so hard, but I wanted to say thank you

    When you laughed about telling details of your family’s dinner routine as if we’d be bored by it I laughed too. When I watch your videos I always think of it as were on the phone catching up - and you talking into the camera the way you did in this video made me feel like we were FaceTiming each other. It was nice 😊

    Cook my ribs the same way, low and slow. I still use crisco, a lot of recipes wouldn’t be the same without it. I just made an angel food cake, my family loves it, I’ve never tried a box mix, with the cost of eggs and how good yours looks going to give it a try.

    • @acountrylife
      @acountrylife  Před měsícem

      Warren’s birthday came just a few months after we married and I had a lot to learn in the kitchen. I knew my grandma would make angel food from scratch and then make a golden yellow cake with all the yolks. Anyway I was reading the directions in the old Betty Crocker cookbook and it seemed like more than I could do so I called my mother-in-law asking for pointers because she made Angel food a lot; that’s when she confided that she always used a boxed mix and that’s what I’ve done ever since.

      It’s been hot here too. Saturday, the crockpot beef roast day was so hot and humid a heat advisory was issued. I don’t mind it, but I don’t have to be working in it. Gravy is finicky so way to go; it takes a lot of practice and my grandma would say plenty of salt to make it good.

I happily buy it for her to make her pie crusts and my hubby gets to enjoy a taste from his childhood. A little doesn’t hurt, IMO.

    I am so paranoid of cooking anything that doesn’t have an expiration date. I have friends that do canning but how do I know how long the stuff is good for? I mean like turkey broth can that stay good if you can it for a year?

      Most canning lid boxes say the food is good up to 18 months.

    50 -60 carbs a day is a lot. One carb is 15 grams. The nutritionist told my husband he should have 3 carbs per meal (45 grams) plus 1 carb for morning, afternoon, evening snacks totalling 3. For the day that is a total of 12 carbs a day. That is 180 grams.

      One gram of carbohydrates = 4 calories. I don't count calories, but I do keep track of my carbs and all my research shows that 50 grams of carbohydrates a day works for me.

      @@acountrylife that doesn't make sense. Fifty grams of carbs is slightly over 3 carbs. That equals approximately about 1 and 1/2 slices of the average bread.

    I love your videos, but honestly. I'm not sure where you're getting your information from. I have a degree in nutrition and a 2000 Calorie diet recommendation is Based on your individual health needs.
    And is always to have between 45 and 60 gm of carbohydrates daily. 275 gm of daily carbs would send your blood sugar off the charts, and you would end up with horrible diabetes., so I would love to hear what source you are getting that information from?? If you resource the Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition, you would get much more reliable science based diet therapy info ❤

      Hi Kathy, I copied and I'm pasting straight from the Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition website:
      Recommendations for carbohydrate goals will vary from person to person. For someone who eats 2,000 calories a day, an RDN may recommend that one meal contains about 45 to 60 grams of carbohydrate - or three to four servings of carbohydrate. This may vary depending on how frequently a person plans to eat throughout the day.
      It's recommending 45-60 grams per meal. Times that by 3 meals per day and that's 135-180 grams of carbohydrates per day, which for my body is way too many and causes my blood sugar to spike and the sugar cravings to increase. I share my situation and thoughts here on A Country Life and hope that those listening do their own research.

    Each to their own of course but the best method for weight loss I have found is intermittent fasting. I don’t eat after 7pm at night, have one meal at dinner and eat what I want during that one hour window. I only drink water or black coffee as everything else will break your fast. Well there’s a few drinks like green tea that won’t but I don’t like that.

      I don’t see how earring only during certain periods is enough. Water and coffee can’t sustain you for hours on end
