Ruth is wonderful......no one communicates quite like her. With these short videos she take's us back to the Victorian era and more......she make's it so interesting which is what learning should be about. Many presenters on tv now could (and should) learn from Ruth Goodman.
Such an amazing lady. Her knowledge of history and the way she presents it or tells her stories, brings history alive. What a treasure. Thank you Ruth for being you. 💕👍🏻

Lol, that song was rattling around my head too, during this video 😂
Before, and even after, you had a boiled pudding, i.e. the Christmas pudding. But there were variations on that. It wasn't a quick process and not a daily treat. Spotted Dick was a boiled pudding and accompanied with a sauce.
I would argue that the introduction of reliable chemical leavening agents (baking powder and soda) in addition to coal ovens helped boost the popularity of home baking.
Fancinating, Sweden doesn't have much of a tradition of tea and homemade cakes, few sweet pies, their apple pie is really sliced apples on scones. Maybe they didn't get the coal stoves as soon. They did get them, but it was after WW1. They were always more coffee drinkers, and they prefer a cinnamon bun or Weiner bread to cakes.
excuse me ma'am. baking is hugely popular in France, and the french side of the web is absolutely packed with recipes & people reviewing them. shops specializing in baking accessories are also very much a thing. people only go to the pâtisserie on special occasions or if they are rich.
I am trying to think through the classical literature. You get a usual image of the French going or sending the kids to buy some sweets from the pattiseries. And the Germans buy a certain amount of the slices cut from a nut, cream or chocate cake baked in a local bakery shop.
I don't know about Germans and French but ashkenazi jews have such a strong tradition of home baking that in the 1950' during Israel's austerity period, when most people didn't own an oven or even a kitchen big enough to have an oven, someone came up with the invention of the wonder pot: a ring shaped pot that allowed you to bake cakes on your stove top.
@@lavenderbirch3482 lol if you love Ruth maybe don't insult her appearance by telling someone who complemented her that he needs Specsavers. Also, I think your "sarcasm sense" is off. Maybe go get that checked out.
To be accurate, during much of history, the ordinary Germanic and French folk could not afford to buy sweet delicacies of any kind from bake shops. 🥮 Those sources were patronized by only the upper middle and the wealthiest classes! Most of our ancestors baked sweet goods at home when sugar became less expensive to buy. At first, they simply added sugar or harvested honey to bread dough to make something of a treat. Cakes were a luxury known to the extravagant few until the 19th century.
I love her , she always makes history learning funny and more appealing and bearable
Wow, realise it now. Coming to New Zealand, home baking is important. Learned it over time. Professionals did it at home.
The privilege of seeing and hearing Ruth makes suffering thru that ghastly audio worth it! She's an international treasure!
Too right!
I love Ruth and her passion. I need more Ruth!
Love her!

My nan used to make a fruit cake every Sunday! What a lovely memory..thank you xx
My nan made Cornish pasties. Better than the shops😊
My mum did - a fruit cake every week, for my dad. She was a wonderful homemaker.
Ruth Goodman Is My Hero
i love how you tell your stories
I am suddenly remembering my Grandmother singing "If I had known you were coming I'ld have baked a cake" and understand it a bit differently. :)
Absolutely. That song means so much more thanks to wonderful Ruth.

THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! Thank you!!
Ruth is the sort of woman you’d love to have as a neighbour🤗
A man would want such a woman for a wife - she is a treasure of kindness, joyfullness, knowledge, experience and true femininity.
Would love to see her back with Alex and peter
I used to bake on my moms old wood/cookstove. It was sometimes trial and error.
😂

I'm glad Lavender Birch deleted their comment about calling Ruth ugly. Some people are just cowards.
Lmao! got a face like a pillow!
Whenever she speaks, gold coins pop out of her mouth!
And Scandinavia too

👌
Oh wait
So...its an easy-bake oven!
XD
I beg to differ, in Germany we have a long and lasting tradition of making cake at home
This lady would make a good witch!
What happened to the audio? Why is it out of sync? What’s the background buzz? This is shite.
You don't look as cheery as when doing the Farm Vids. I watch them again, and my daughter thinks I've lost my mind and can't remember them.
I have watched them a second time. So much information packed in, you miss some things the first time.
The background isn’t suitable for recording a video, it’s too dark and red , especially for a red head
a Camouflage.
