    I asked my grandmother (born in late 1930's) about the banana hollandaise dish, and she told me that it doesn't work with modern bananas. Back when that dish was actually eaten, the bananas that were available for purchase were called Gros Michel bananas, which taste different from the bananas available now, the cavendish banana. If you've ever wondered why artificial banana flavor doesn't taste like bananas, it's because it's based off of the Gros Michel banana. Apparently when you cooked those, though, they got more savory in flavor, so the dish actually worked quite well. That being said, she said at the time it was definitely still a fad and most people didn't eat it often. It was just a quirky dish someone made up and people ran with. She's apparently tried recreating the dish with cavendish bananas, and "it just wasn't the same" and didn't even taste good. Because Gros Michel bananas are extinct, in effect, that dish is too.

    • @Sikizu

    The butter with the Depression pie: milk was sold whole back then, no skim or half'n'half usually. People were often pre-refrigeration then & would churn their own butter from the cream. Or simply put the cream in a large jar & have the kids shake it until it turned into butter. Then the buttermilk was used for baking etc (my Mom's old Betty Crocker cookbook from the late 50s has a lot of cookie & other recipes asking for buttermilk).

    Then we strain it and pour it into a nice beautiful dish, add some pieces of “pulled” chicken breast and veggies, place it in the fridge overnight and it gelatinizes by gelatin from the actual bones in the broth

  • @ARabidPie
    @ARabidPie Před 6 dny +31

    As you mentioned, aspic goes waaay back. It actually used to be rich-people food because it took so long to extract the gelatin and a lot of fresh meat bones and bits to get a sufficient quantity. Aspics have cyclically been going in and out of style in fine dining for centuries. The 'modern' jello craze of the post-war era was all about mass production making instant shelf-stable gelatin available to the common folk. Basically, this thing that was once only available with a lot of time and effort and usually only seen in fine dining, was now affordable and every newly-middle-class family wanting to show off at their dinner parties just had to have it, regardless of whether or not they knew how to make a good dish with it, or if that was ever even possible to begin with.

    The thing with jelly is mainly about the proportion: There is something in France which is called "œuf on gelée" which is basically a boiled egg rapped in ham with pickles and vegetables all in aspic. But the relationship is like two thirds egg, 15 percent ham, pickles etc and just 10 percent aspic. It's really nice, especially the modernized versions with a runny yolk instead of hard boiled.

    The depression was an era that required creativity. I grew up in the 70s in a small town in Colorado with school cooks that were women of German Russian decent. They made everything from scratch and it was really good and very cheap. Hamburger gravy over mashed potatoes, a lunch version of biscuits and gravy. Homemade cabbage pockets. Weiners Ala Mode. It fed a lot for a little.

    A small note: an _aspic_ made with NO added gelatine, but from a meat-and-bone-broth so thick it solidifies in the fridge by itself, and with bits of shredded cooked meat suspended in it, is a VERY popular Soviet dish (called "holodets"), often made for the New Year's celebration. And yes, it's delicious. Very meaty. No vegetables, no olives or any such bullshit, just pure shredded cooked meat.
    Add some mustard or horse-radish and it's even better.

    • @codename495

      The whole reason gelatin had a resurgence in the 60-70 is because of the newly invented/marketed gelatin powder that just needed water/hydration instead of having to go though the process of making it from scratch.

    • @imuni55
      @imuni55 Před 8 dny +3

      Yep, exactly what I was thinking about. But with _some_ veggies, those from the broth - carrot, garlic, etc. One of the reasons it was/is popular is because it uses very tough and otherwise inedible (-> cheap) animal parts - e.g., my mother bought chicken feet and pork hooves. After making the broth, these were removed and only "normal" meat was left. I remember those nights before the New year, when the stock was left to simmer until about 2 am, and we had to get up to "sort" it - take away inedible parts, tear the meat to be poured over with stock... It was a whole family endeavor 😂

    Vintage recipes are so much fun. A tradition with my family is that we try at least one every holiday. Some have been great, some even our dogs wouldn't eat. My aunt and uncle, who were in their 80's tried the water pie. They didn't let it chill for 24 hours and couldn't figure out why it was so runny. We laughed for years. Thanks for the great content and memory I had forgotten.

    I'm old. Probably one of your oldest viewers and a child in the 70's. It was a VERY weird time, especially in food. Another thing, I lived in Ohio and I grew up in church. This should tell you a lot. The 'salad's' that elderly church ladies made would haunt your nightmares. Everything had this weird combination of marshmallows, mayonnaise, jello, and shredded coconut. I remember soooo many aspics. Like SO many. This video was a scary look back, tbh, but I'm here for it lol. Thanks Josh!

      The "weird salad" is called Ambrosia . It is very well known throughout North America.
      I grew up on the Canadian prairie ( the northern continuation of your American plains).
      Ambrosia salad was a favorite in the small farming towns throughout Canada. Each family grandma had her own particular recipe depending on the availability of additions.
      (My nan added canned segmented, Japanese mandarin oranges to her Ambrosia. Every year she made it for my birthday in August.) I even had Ambrosia over vanilla ice cream
      when I was a little girl.
