From an era when we lived in the moment and just waited - waited for a magazine to come out every week; waited for a TV programme usually weekly and “caught up” with the 6 ‘o’ clock news. Now we are “on all the time” leading little space in between to look forward to things.
"If you DO end up with a lumpy sauce, just give it a jolly good whisk!" - I love the way Mary speaks
I love watching this programme and I remember when vegetables where seasonal. My parents grew there own veg in the 70s we used to harvest the veg in autumn and I remember when freezers became available we used to sit around the kitchen table chopping veg and shelling peas to put into little bags ready for the freezer. Great times
I miss these days
I miss those days 😢
This was such a yummy trip down memory lane.! It's been years since I've made stuffed peppers and this recipe looked really tasty and quite easy to follow..Mary and Judith looked fabulous..I thought Mary rocked that chic, black shirt dress too..Well, I'll just nip into the kitchen and whip up some fondue to go with those groovy stuffed peppers..😁☮️
Only two things I would change. First, instead of a stock cube I would use the low sodium stocks that you can buy now, and I would swap out the green peppers for red or yellow peppers. Apart from that I would say the recipe really looks like it’s aged well over the years. Can’t wait to try it.
So Love Dame Mary Berry ~ lovely combination of the clearest clipped RP diction (you never miss a word), with very down to earth practical cookery skills honed from her extensive training with one of the best cookery schools.
Omg! Mary Berry was a total dish, back in the day. I adore her.
Stuffed Peppers are easily one of my favorites
I don’t know if Pebble Mill was on the same channel, I think it was on the BBC, but I loved these casual day time programmes as a child, they had a unique feel that doesn’t exist now, as everything is available to watch on TV and social media 24/7. It also fascinated me that the TV channels closed down at midnight/1am in the UK, can you imagine that now!! “BBC2 is closing down for the night. Wishing you a very good night. Goodnight!!”. !!! Nothing closes down now (except most of the shops in the towns and cities). A different era, then. I miss it in some ways. Much simpler.
A reminder how tough the 70s was ..half a pepper per person or use stuffed marrow..😮
With what Mary must have been making in terms of income, surely she wasn't personally concerned with the price of meat and putting it on the table. I think it's nice that she wanted viewers to know that she empathized with them, but as a personal problem, her circumstances certainly removed it from her plate (ha ha a pun). In any event, it's always nice to see a new Judith and Mary video pop up.
I can't imagine a cooking show today commenting on the cost of any ingredient, or at least not of a prosaic one - "take two tablespoons of saffron and mix it with some silphium....."
Jolly good!
Reminds me of a Victoria Wood and Julie Walter’s sketch …..😳🤔🤣
“marGarine” 😂😂😂
Mary was so lovely!
In case anyone wants to try it, here are the measurements and directions:
