Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 10. 2022
- Today is the day we harvest our large Alaskan cabbage grown under the midnight sun, weighing in at 37 pounds leaves and all! We work to preserve our abundant garden harvest through fermentation, pickling and water bath processing.
~ Canned Coleslaw Ingredients ~
Sliced Red and Green Cabbage, Carrots, Beets and Kohlrabi
~ Canned Coleslaw Brine ~
2 parts vinegar (of your choice) to 1 part water
Sugar as desired
Peppercorns, brown mustard seeds and celery seeds
~ Canned Coleslaw Instructions ~
Sprinkle kosher salt over vegetable mixture, allow to sit for 1-2 hours then rinse well and drain.
Heat brine ingredients and prepare canning jars. Each jar needs approximately 1/2 to 3/4 cup of brine.
Pack coleslaw mixture into jars, pour hot brine over leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
Lid and band jars, process for 20 minutes in a water bath canner.
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀
Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! 💙

What is your favorite way to eat cabbage??
Sauerkraut or kimchi! Great video!
Shredded Asian Salad with wonton crisps and tangerine segments. 🍊
With bacon and spuds. I'm Irish 🤣
Stir fried with onions and beef!
sourkrout & smoked sausage
I cannot believe how far you two have come. Your videos are such a relief and break from all the garbage going on in our world. Your videos are always informative, educational and yet you manage to keep them funny too. Your dogs are the best and they are blessed to have you as parents!!!! Keep up the wonderful work!! Thanks again!!!!
YES!!!! I couldn't agree more!
I totally agree!!
Agreed ❤🎉
It’s like watching the discovery channel!
I wholeheartedly agree!! This is a wonderful channel with two wonderful people and two fabulous fur babies as the stars!!
I've never in my life experienced a couple who makes the most out of their life like you two have been doing. I respect your way of living, but your relationship is one we can all envy. You folks work together, play together, cook together and show each other the patience and understanding that would keep any relationship together. You seem to be the best of friends and over the years I have enjoyed watching you and your ability to make the most of what you have. May you both be blessed with love and treasure til the end of your journey.
🥰 AGREE!!!
So agree, my words exactly
@@Mike_hocksbig69
You are the one who doesn't have any discernment of the Spirit of mankind. You can't fudge that .... not even for YT.
@@Mike_hocksbig69 I see things you can't! You realize this is real life, right? You can't fake love; it is a vibe not an act. One day you will have the ability to see more than meets the eye. Until then.... just learn from these people and enjoy CZcams while you stuff your face with popcorn and candy!
❤❤❤
If everybody will plant, nobody will go hungry including the animals. Thanks again🌺🌷🌸
Am I the only one who likes the sound cabbage makes ?
I was waiting for Eric to say, "OMG, this is the best thing I've ever eaten in my life!" ❤️
me too!!!! a video without Eric saying that line is a great video, but not the best one I've ever watched in my life ;-)
WOW what a big cabbage head !!!
That's an OBSCENE amount of cabbage! 😂
Also, does anyone love the crunchy/squeaky sound they make? Kinda reminds me of walking in fresh powder snow. Not in terms of similarity, but how satisfying it sounds lol
Thanks as always for the great video ❤
Yes! It totally reminds me of walking on fresh snow. Or the squeak of green beans on your teeth. lol
I love the sound of fresh cabbage and fresh snow. I completely agree!
Shows how interconnected we are with plants our reactions to something like a squeaking noise. Even better when the cabbage is in your own hands.
I really appreciate youtubers who respond to their comments! 🎉❤
You two are my favorite kids. I’m 61 and wish you were my kids!❤
Have you guys ever thought of publishing a cookbook? All of your recipes, canning + meals, look amazing!!!
YES, I WOULD BUY IT !!!
Your chickens eat better then most people do. What an outstanding giant cabbage you grew!
hahaha... so true :)
@@agnesskibicka nie reklamuj sie u innych- bardzo nieladnie
You guys are living a very heathly life. You got everything you need but you two work so hard to have a good life.
I've never seen such a HUGE cabbage in all my life !!!!!!
What I also like about you two, is the way you talk. No swearing or unpleasant words. God bless you
Holy cabbage!! What a haul. I love both slaw and sauerkraut so I’m dying here. Great job. Ariel, you are a master crust and bread baker. ❤️❤️
oh Yeah! She keeps making the amazing pastry like it's normal and nothing special. In fact to me, who absolutely doesn't know how to bake and messed a million times in my life, she's a master in this. I just love those two
My favorite part of the video: where Ariel measures the size of the cabbages using a face… “this is like 8 faces! I’ve heard of using a “dinner plate” to measure sizes of things, but not a human face. Oh Ariel, you are the BEST!😂 great harvest and processing days! 🫑🌶🥒🥦
But it is very international: I wouldn't know how big an American Dinner Plate is.
Ariel, just throws together some flour and butter, and water, chops some veggies and in thirty minutes out come a pastry that is cooked to perfection and would please a King, unbelieveable. they eat like kings in the middle of nowhere. What a duo.
Cabbage is a stable here in TN. Normally my family fries it in an iron skillet with bacon and onions. Great video!
my husbands family has a polish recipe similar, add lots of garlic and some pasta, awesome satisfying meal!!
haha same 😂
Cayce, I absolutely love fried cabbage. I can eat it as a meal. A pan of it doesn’t last long around me. Lol. I think they should try making some. I guarantee they would love it.
@@jacquelinewells7575 I bet they would! 😊
@@m.scotsimpson5725 yeeessss, halusky is what my family in PA called it. I've loved it since I was a kid. Though they often used just fried cabbage and onions in a TON of butter with egg noodles (and a ton of pepper). It's good both ways, with bacon or butter or both of course. Best comfort food!
That moment where they both couldn't believe how great the pie was was amazing.
That's what she said.
Ba dum tiss
Stuffed cabbage, pork, beef, allspice, cardamom, Calrose Rice, a nice red sauce, and some mozzarella cheese omg now I'm hungry 😂😂❤❤
There is nothing better than homemade sauerkraut!
I love how authentic your channel is - no click bait or malarkey. Pure content. Soul satisfying. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I’m wondering how off the grid they are with a CZcams channel.
@@RH-wj4rz What difference does it make? Just curious.
I love that you two get so excited about the food you grow and then cook. Enjoy!
What a pretty pie! Sometimes we're not sure what we create with our fresh food but we're sure that it is good! Our favorite thing to say at dinner is "we eat good".
I love that squeaky sound of fresh cabbage leaves
I LOVE the sound of squeaky cabbage leaves!
Since I found your channel 3-4 years ago, y’all have motivated me to start my own garden 2 years ago and I can hopefully learn to can food next year. I’m no where near as successful at as y’all are in my garden,but I’m slowly learning and I really appreciate how you explain things and tell us the way you do things. I also love how you cover so many other things like bee keeping, fishing and hunting, preserving food and cooking. I just wish I could go fishing for salmon, but sadly they never come to NC except in the freezer section. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Talk about Cabbage Patch Kids!! Holy moly they are massive! The kid in me wanted to make a bonnet with one of those mega giant leaves and put it on my head! Lol! Look at all that chopped salad! Dinner looked fantastic! You had all of us zoned in on every yummy descriptive word used to describe how amazing your little veggie delight tasted!
I'm a father of four that works away from home to provide for my family..u guys are living my dream I gotta say thanks for all the footage u guys share it keeps my dreams alive just want to say thanks. God bless you both
Then move to Alaska 'or' the Big Island of Hawaii and purchase some acreage land there. Then become self sufficient!!
@@royjohnson465 yeah because everybody can afford to just go pick up a piece of land. Please be sensitive to the needs of others and realize that other people may not have it as good as you do to where you can just look around and wherever you feel like living. Some of us don't have it that good.
Please can I ask what might seem a silly question I always thought Cole slaw was a fresh unheated uncooked grated vegetable mixture with mayonaisse? Is your product soft and totally different from the Cole slaw I'm used to ?
That is one huge cabbage… when Arielle was holding up that huge leaf… all I could think of was wow that would make a ginormous amount of stuffed cabbage… yum! 💞
You could've rolled up a Honda into that thing!
@@500dollarjapanesetoaster8 😂😅🤣
@@500dollarjapanesetoaster8 That is stretching it a bit , but I get it !!! Plants grow GYNORMOUS IN ALASKE BECAUSE THE SUN STAYS UP ALMOST ALL NIGHT LONG !!!
You both have a talent for making your viewers EXTREMELY HUNGRY! That galette looked amazing! It was very close to a tomato pie, which you should make, if you haven't already. Acre Homestead made one and said it tasted like a pizza!
Yes, and I really loved the one on Hollar Homestead too.
I love Acre Homestead! I bet Becky would love the recipe for that sauce they used to make the galette. I'll have to remember to post a link to this video in the comments on her next video.
@@myopiniondoesntmatterh9073 Becky is a gem! Don´t know where she gets all that energy...but of course she is young, that helps!
Becky is a lot like her mom. They always think of others, and have a love for cooking and entertaining!
The one acre homestead made did look delicious!
Good job guys, Its good to see when people don't rely on processed "food" from markets but instead, make their own good stuff themselves like my Parents used to make !! All the best !
Little evil baby cat? No way that Pepper is a little cherub! Lol. Please ensure that this beautiful feline receives ample grooming and many cat treats.
I guessed 37 lbs! I saw cabbage that big in Anchorage a few years ago. Your videos are so excellent, calming, informative, and fun! No ads. I just sit back and relax.
Mother Nature is amazing 🤩 your cabbage fed humans, chickens, worms, spiders, slugs and variety of buggies. Just spectacular
Thank you both. I know by reading it in the comments frequently, but you are literally living “the dream”. I know it’s not always easy and I’m sure there are frustrations and tears along the way but, thank you for sharing your joys and adventures with the world. Thank you for being real and caring about the worms and the spiders and your chickens. Thank you for not sugarcoating what real hard work looks like as well as the joys and blessings of delayed gratification! Thank you for your diligence and authenticity. You are both a treasure to myself and my husband! Thank you. Praying God continues to bless and provide for you both.
*incredibly casually* "Yea, it's about 8 human heads or so". hahaha. Love the harvests!
I could watch you two 24/7. It’s so relaxing to me, but hard work for you. Thank you for sharing. I’ve never seen cabbages so big.❤
I love how Arielle just whips up these pie crusts effortlessly and they always turn out amazing. I'd love to see how they store all the things they can. It must be incredible!
you can go back and watch all their videos...but they store it under their cabinets and kitchen island,,,,they once made a root cellar but it held water so the filled it in...there are videos of it....just thought i would answer as im sure they dont get to all inquiries hope i helped...HAGD😃
It's the most incredible greedy/proud feeling to see all those canned goods lined up. I canned like a maniac this summer. The last thing was the best: dill and garlic green tomato pickles, omg I wish I'd canned dozens of pints more...but I just wore out. I regretfully committed the last half bushel to the groundhogs.
Well I'm proud to see that young folks are doing some gardening and producing food for themselves and they need to keep it up this is over Rob
That's a majestic cabbage! A saurkraut idea: stuff sweet peppers with saurkraut and can them. So delicious!
Oh gosh! Those cabbages were HUGE! You guys work so hard. Thank you for your videos and taking us along.
I am a newer viewer and have been binge viewing your videos for a few weeks now. I just bought a house (not in Alaska... yet). I am really looking forward to starting my garden so that's how I stumbled across your channel. I just love all your videos and I will definitely be taking some of your awesome canning recipes including this one! Keep up the awesome videos!!!
I love how she’s so stoked on the crust and he’s crazy about the sauce 😂 both loving the pizza in different ways
The harmony between the two of you is beautiful.
I would love to see your pantry once your harvest has been complete! Truly appreciate you guys and enjoy all of your videos!
Outstanding idea to can coleslaw. Never thought of that one nor seen it. Awesome garden this year. You did a great job! 👏
I don’t know how many times I read can coleslaw yet my brain just kept inserting sauerkraut. I’ve never even considered canning slaw.
It's amazing. Initially, thought it sounded terrible, but it's great....
I've been making Arielle's coleslaw recipe since I saw the video two years ago. We eat it straight from the jar, no mayo, it's so delicious 😍
I'm really glad I watched this right after eating a big lunch... otherwise it'd be torture seeing all that awesome looking food on an empty stomach
In my first 20 seconds of discovering you and seeing your channel numbers, i can see you're an attractive personality and friendly and are simple and respectable close to nature.
Thank You as always for the Garden therapy! you two never fail to inspire me to keep my own small plants going.
My goodness children. You are something to behold. God bless you and your little farm.
Good Lord. I'm in Southern Spain and in this tremendous heat and poor soil and no rain for 7 months ,its quite impossible to grow vegetables of these dimensions. I feel like crying watching this,but I'm so happy for you guys.
I’m thanking God for you both, you have been very blessed!🌱♥️
Love how much you two enjoy your meals! After all the hard work of growing, cleaning and putting up your vegetables, its great that you enjoy it so much.
Y’all work so hard. I love that you can make so many different doughs with flour. You work harder than if y’all worked a 8 to 5 job for sure. Love 💕 y’all.
Working harder, but having a lot more fun!
Those are the biggest cabbage I've ever seen in my life and I'm a country girl. Just beautiful 🙏🏾😘
Those big cabbage leaves would make awesome stuffed cabbage!!
🥬🫑🥒🥦🍄🥦🥬
I made your canned coleslaw for the second year in a row. I used the green cabbage I got from my CSA. My son and I love it! We like it as is from the jar or with some mayo. So easy and yummy!💕
Ariel - you have the hand movements of a true baker. The way you push the dough with the backs of your fingers then softly handle, knead and shape. It’s a gift that not everyone has. Very cool.
Thank you 😁
I never stop being amazed at the creation that comes from plants starting from one tiny seed. So cool
Just imagine the size of stuffed cabbage rolls this will make, amazing sized cabbage, too great people,Eric and Ariel,great job,35 pounds is spectacular. Lots of kraut coming soon.
You two are certainly living your best life in Alaska, thanks for sharing with us.
That was a giant cabbage head.
Canning is quite a lot of work. Makes me appreciate how hard our forebears had to work to survive. Also appreciate being able to shop in a supermarket, not as tasty but super convenient.
I love how much you all love each other... If she/he cant can cabbage with you, they arent worth it... 🤣🤣
I love when you guys critique your food...it makes me smile....
What an amazing harvest! Loved your excitement and enthusiasm throughout the whole process. So much work! Bet your hands really paid for all that chopping. You made it look so delicious, I could smell it. Fantastic harvest!
I think you two are the real deal when it comes to homesteading if you go back and look four years ago and when y'all started to now y'all have done a an awesome job there's other CZcams channels out there that claim to be homesteading I think instead of them sitting around running their mouths they need to watch y'all two personally when I watch homesteading this is what I want to see again awesome job y'all love your episodes
using a human face as a unit of measure is the best thing I have heard today :D :D sending some love from Slovakia
You guys are ridiculous! Ridiculously amazing that is!😅 The Alaskan version of “keeping up with the Joneses!” 😆
You're set for winter. What a harvest!!!
Beautiful cat! Always great videos and great filming! Love your videos! What a beautiful pie and crunchy crust!!!
Ariel’s units of measurement are hilarious “a human child“ and “eight human faces“ 😂😂😂omg
You are Gods creation personified! We love watching you not only survive in Alaska but thrive in Alaska! Nothing but best wishes your way
Everything from the garden looked wonderful. It is so satisfying to look at your own canned goods especially when you grew the produce yourself. Your dinner looked delicious. Enjoyed your video - as always!
I was waiting for Eric to say that was the best thing he ever ate! It was a beautiful galette, could have been the cover on a food magazine. Your cabbages are awesome! I thought after your struggle with the first one, that you would have been using the hatchet on the rest of them. 🙂
I really appreciate that you start the videos off with dates, temps, and time info. It makes it more personable and understandable. Thank You!
The veining on the leaves is really pretty too!
Wow! What a canning session. That cabbage is incredible! And the veggie pie? Well, let's just say it's another culinary masterpiece that must be added to the cook book!
I look forward to watching your videos every week you guys never disappoint you should try egg roll bowls you toss all ingredient in pot cook it up and serve it up in a bowl no wraps
It's great to see a young couple that can be happy providing for themselves, it's a wonderful thing! Thanks.
Initially, I thought the cabbage in the thumbnail was digitally enlarged-not in a malicious or deceitful way though. But, after watching the video and seeing that there was absolutely zero enlargement or exaggeration I was gob-smacked and literally blown away!! Amazing! New subscriber here and am just in awe of your gardening expertise and know how! Thank you for sharing it with us. ❤
You two are massively productive and its so enjoyable to watch you work together. Love all your videos. Avid fan. 😊
Great another garden video. Your harvest is incredible. Thanks
"About 8 human faces or so" 🤣 I'm also strangely enjoying the sound of the cabbage leaves. 🤷♀️
Beautiful cabbages and beautiful garden. Next with your new lumber mill make an outdoor patio kitchen and outdoor oven!!!
I love you two guys, you are such a seamless coordinated team. Just a delight to watch. Thank you.
I always find the temperature and sunrise/set times interesting in your videos. It seems we have similar spring and autumn as you here in the north of England (cooler summer and much warmer winter though!) We're at 7.30am sunrise and 6.30pm sun set and the same high and low temperature as you today. Beautiful cabbage harvest! Everything looks delicious.
It amazes me that you pick off the slugs on the cabbage like if it is nothing, lol. You have enough healthy food to last for many months. I learned a lot from this video. It is enjoyable too.
please put love n thankfulness towards the plants, weight n size arent what its about, yall are clearly been doing it right :)))
First, I like seeing cold climate gardening. Second, the chemistry between you two is inspiring. Finally, I REALLY LIKE how you do a subject from start to finish. Cabbage to sauerkraut for example. Instead of slicing up a video into many smaller videos which may do better in the algorithm. Also, I'm not an historical fan of cabbage, but in recent years I found out that it's not bad if you salt it. And this video alone has inspired me to start growing cabbage in my Montana garden.
I love all of y’all’s video’s. Hope you and y’all’s animals are Doin well!!!❤
Now that I'm sick at home your videos are so helpful. I love all of the them. I love gardening unfortunately I live in the city. Love you guys. ♥️ God bless you 🙏
Well, I am addicted to your videos. I love them.
It is so nice that you two utilize the outdoors for your kitchen prep (and cooking). Wonderful Life You Two have created~
Your chicken flock is so pretty and healthy looking! I love your rooster's coloring. That cabbage is intense...so amazing!!! Your garden is so fruitful, well done you guys!
You two are amazing!! I'm so impressed with your skills - regardless of what you are working on. Have you both been trained in culinary arts? Everything you cook looks delicious and you prepare such diverse meals. I just recently discovered your channel and I love it.
I watch Hollar Homestead videos and the little girl (nicknamed Buggie) is most likely your biggest fan! She's so delightful, as is the entire family.
I know this video is from the previous year but it will be relevant years from now. I can't wait to compare your 2023 harvest to the 2022 harvest.
Great job! Blessings and wishes for continued health and prosperity.
I love the chatting at the end lol so sweet ❤
I’m amazed at the size of that cabbage and your coleslaw looked beautiful all the colours of the vegetables, you two are such a joy to watch ❤
Watching you two talk about your food is both amazing and hilarious. And it always makes me hungry 😂
Your giving the chickens the best parts
