- čas přidán 13. 09. 2024
- Hey folks, Todays Homestead video is a little bit different. We are getting closer to finishing and closer to what life will be like down here when we do finish. Todays video is a glimpse of what a dream life on the homestead will be like. Up early, breakfast, bit of gardening, bit of feeding the animals. A trip to the ocean to freedive and forage some hand dived scallops, check out some fish and crabs, check up on the bees before wrapping up with the most delicious scallop, black pudding and potato dinner.
Hope you enjoy

I’m with Clare, I love the roe.
Awww a kindred spirit 🤣
Great video folks. Like food the magic in the formula is hard to put your finger on exactly, but I think it’s the complete lack of pretence. Two straight up characters just living a dream one step at a time. Makes me want to watch the next step too. Nice job guys.
Thanks much appreciated. There is a Dublin CZcamsr that did a series around the world on a motorbike back in 2012ish called Oisin hughes. He is a great inspiration and had a great phrase "finding your own death Star" to blow up. We've all got a life-changing mission in us but few search it out. Glad to see your on your way to yours 😉
@@WestCorkWander I like that phrase. Reference to a Death Star gives it a kind of shameless grandeur to it that just has to raise at least a corner of a grin into the face of adversity.
Thanks! Kelly in California with 100% Irish ☘️ roots!!!
Feckin awesome! Lovely to have you heard with us, thanks a bunch!
I think them potatoes are sherved in quinels - spelling may be wrong 😊
I love listening to your accents, my paternal grandfather was from Larne, so holidays were some years on the "green isle" I love it😊
Thats it! We dont even have strong accents, but they are there!
Waking up in your own home, wow - privileged! Great milestone, made me smile. Never shelled a scallop, great tutorial, looks like you've done it once or twice :D Enjoyed seeing you guys having some fun. Mouth actually watering 🤤
It really is. I imagine living in a camper and waking in wonderful places was a different kind of wonderful but sleeping in a caravan for over a year through the worse weather Ireland had to offer was certainly an experience that really makes you appreciate a bed! We clocked -6.5'c last feb i think. We dont have blinds or curtains tho... so thats one plus for the caravan!
Some of the biggest scallops I ever saw was right where you are, presumably as its a protected they get to grow massive! Lots of fun to be had down this way... one day when all the projects are done we can properly enoy it ;)
So good to see you out enjoying life for a change from all the hard work.
It really is! Hopefully we can force ourselves to do that a bit more, it's a guilty feeling tho with so much left todo
Oh Yum!!! Those scallops look Divine❤. Im going to make your chowder tonight for dinner. Have been looking for a straightforward, no nonsense recipe!! I'll keep you posted. The house looks fab, lucky you living in earth's sweet heaven, West Cork is my happy place ❤
You won't r great it! Great recipe, let us know how it works out!
@WestCorkWander You are so right absolutely no regrets! It was delicious, a friend joined us for dinner and decided to come back again today for leftovers!!! A staple in the Harvey household from here out. Thank you guys. Love your channel and I have shared a plenty 😀
Fantastic, glad it was a success with you and friends. Thanks so much for letting us know 😊
New subscriber! I heard you follow some of my favorites in Portugal and I was in. My grandfather was born in County Cork in 1906! Trying to binge a bunch and as usual-hooked from the Timelapse one. Great job so far for ‘newbies’ to this😂😂😂😂. Love the cooking so much. I’m seeing old recipes from my grandma…my grandfather had to have potatoes every day of his life!!! Do you know how to make all day double boiler rice pudding? I never got grandma’s recipe and she is long gone. Would love to see that!!!
Oh that's a new one for us, great, it's on the list 🙂
@@WestCorkWander yay!! Thank you!! I know there was cinnamon involved and it took all day to cook adding milk or cream throughout the day! Can’t wait to see the kitchen area all done-LOVE how you guys banter back and forth and how sweet you are to Clare!
Kerry gold is the BEST butter!! I’m so glad that it’s one of the Irish things that are imported here! 😊❤
It really is! It was a taste of home when we lived in the middle east!

@@luciaperdue5687 do they export that to America? I’m in Arizona, some things that are exported to America only make it to the east coast, places like New York, but I’ll look for it! Thanks!😊

I don't know about online
A friend brought it to me from Ireland
8:30pm here in New Zealand. Very hungry after watching that can't whait to return home for good and eat some clonakelty black pudding with my mother.
Nothing like it is there 😊
Quenelles I think 🧐 good to see you relaxing making the most of your beautiful country
Damn!! Thats it exactly! thanks for that!
😊😊
😊
I love scallops too but like Rob, not much a fan of the roe. I think he was trying for the word ‘quenelle’ for his spooniie potatoes.😆
Exactly!! That's the word, roe is a bit like Marmite!
I reckon there is no better happiness than a dog's. They just show it so well. I love scallops. Prawns, yabbies, mussels not so much. My mom always made curried scallops. Yum. I have also just cooked them in butter with a small amount of garlic. Both lovely dishes.
Sounds Devine!
Lovely video guys. Well done 🎉
You need to come down more often😉
Quenelles, I believe though I might not be spelling it right. I love lemon butter sauce on fresh scallops but it’s great with a splash of wine too✌️💚
Yes Trish, although we like to call it the foldie spoon method 🤣
hi there.
we in sweden have something similare to black pudding but we call it in sweden " blood pudding " we eat blood pudding in several ways and how it is made really depends on who is doing it but in overall then black pudding and blood pudding is almost the same thing.
so if you go to sweden and want black pudding then you should check out a thing called blood pudding.
i hope you have wonderful day and find this information useful :)
Ah how lovely to hear about the blood pudding from Sweden, very much the same I expect 🙂
@@WestCorkWander yes it is very mutch the same, the only thing i can see that is diffrent is the groats ( oatmeal, oat groats, or barley groats ) in black pudding, blood pudding do not have that what i have seen.
Great video and gorgeous view opened up where the trees were felled.
Thanks 👍
I love scallops. They look delicious. I had never heard of cooking them with black pudding. I must try that someday.
Unbelievable U gotta try it!!
Good morning my end of the world .Absolutely amazing underwater footage ,,You really have a slice of heaven
Thanks, we love it! great water here :)
I love your cooking segments!
More to come! 🙂
I don't like scallops. But seeing you enjoy them the way you cook them makes me want to try them again. Keep doing what you're doing I love watching you work your land and seeing all the progress you are doing.👍🥰🌻🇺🇸
Definitely one of our favourite meals, give it a go!
Go good to see you both relaxing and enjoying yourselves for a change. I too do love fresh scollops dipped in butter. All the best, M.
Thanks, yip it was nice to relax!
Myself and my sisters used to cut out scallops almost every day, they earned a living doing it ,I did the processing and preparation of them for sale , I would not like to count how many we processed hundreds of dozens a day , like you said you can eat them raw as I did all the time with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of black pepper,I still get them now having friends in the fishing trade eat fish at least three or four times a week love the vids ,,,cheers now John from Plymouth
Oh wow, those were the days id say. Hard to find anything in the waters these days! Sounds a dream!
Do snorkel or scuba dive? When I lived in Hawaii I got my scuba certification. We used to go diving at least twice a week. And yes, I agree, I love the ocean.
Free dive and snorkel. No scuba gear 🙂
I'm back home next week and fully intend to avail myself of everything Clonnakilty produce piled on top of a nice buttered slice of wheaten bread lol!
Lovely to see yis both relaxing for a change!
Ahh great, enjoy your hols🍀
I'm craving scallops now 😋
I crave scallops daily!! hehe :)
@@WestCorkWander Scallops and lobster are my fav. I usually cook them together depending on the prices; which are crazy high here on the east coast of Canada. I don't snorkel and most likely never will, so that's out.
Snails hate salt, that might help.
Yip they hate the salty seaweed
My husband loves black pudding
Rob absolutely loves it 🙂
@@WestCorkWander I'm not going to tell him about the black pudding he will cry because he's from Belfast Northern Ireland, I lived there for 2 years and loved it.
Looked delicious
Thank you 😋
Have you ever snorkelled or foraged from the ocean?
