    "We're just going to keep it simple" they say about their meal after hunting own meat, processing it, growing the potatoes, foraging for hours for berries, and then setting up an outdoor kitchen. 😂 You guys rock.

      Can confirm. Growing your own food cause it tastes better. Foraging because you can't find it in stores. Hunting because it's fresher and healthier than anything you can buy. And you control what goes into it

    I am from Sweden. Lingonberry jam or raw-stirred lingonberries with sugar is a delicacy, especially for Swedish meatballs. I can also recommend lingonberries for fried mackerel. We eat lingonberry with the mackerel on the Swedish west coast! Lingonberrys are easy to preserve, just cook them with sugar and you can keep them in clean jars on a kitchen shelf👍🏻😀

    I live on a small farm/homestead in northern Sweden and we have a similar climate as Alaska.
    Every year we pick 10-15 kg of Lingon.
    They are best after the first frost.
    My favorite way to eat them is to simply put some im a jar together with roughly 20% pf the berrys weight in sugar. Just let it sit and they will be conserved. The sugar will draw out the juice and it will become lika a jam.
    No heat, nothing. When they are boiled i find that they becom much more tart and less fresh.
    Other traditional way of conserving them is just to put them i a bucket and covering them with water. They will hold forna year. If you do so, the liquid becomes a way for storing other fruits such as pears/apples. During Christmas we eat a treat which is pears conserved in this water/lingon solution and it is great.
    These berries are literally amazing. In may, when the snow melts you can go in to the woods and still pick last years berries. They will have a Jelly like consistency but the taste will be very sweet.
    If you want recepeis google
    Rårörda lingon (sugar and berry mix with no heat)
    Vattlingon (the miracle bucket-berry preservation)

    Brings back some great memories of fall hunting in Nova Scotia. The ruffed grouse is commonly called a partridge here and there is nothing as flavorful when fried up in some butter ! Walking an old woods road in late afternoon where they search for pebbles for their craw would cause a near heart seizure when they would suddenly take off in a whirr right in front of you!. Never personally harvested cranberries but relatives used to annually go to their favorite bog for a years supply. Good to see you are taking advantage of all that Alaska has to offer the adventurous .👍👍👍🤩❤

    You should make a cranberry jalapeno jelly/jam, to put over green onion/chive cream cheese. It's a fantastic cracker spread. I used canned whole berry cranberry sauce and about 5 jalapeno slices from a jar, I had accidently purchased when looking for banana peppers. I blended them together, then turned the mixture into a low sugar jam. It's absolutely delicious! Cranberry jam, made with raspberries and cranberries is also delicious on biscuits, toast, or pb&j sandwiches. It takes very little pectin, if any, because of their acid content. You may need to cook it down, if you don't use pectin.

    I am not sure about Lingonberries, but cranberries have their own natural pectin, so you don't need to add any when canning it up. I make these sandwiches every year with turkey. So good. I don't add mustard though. I love when you always try new things. I eat Lingonberries every year also. I also love cloud berries. For Christmas I do a real ham with all the Swedish fixings. The ham is raw and soaked in a brine. Different than the ham you get in the stores. When you start a garden again try rutabaga, and potatoes. Boil them both and mash them like you would do mashed potatoes. Mix together and add heavy cream, butter and salt and pepper. You can boil them in chicken broth if you want to. I use a little more rutabagan than potatoes. Serve like you would mashed potato. You can also freeze any leftover, just thaw and heat back up.

    • @Passioakka
      @Passioakka ปีที่แล้ว

    Lingonberries are a real staple here in Finland and Nordic countries! We use them for both savory and sweet. Jam of course, I prefer mine as no-cook/stirred, so raw berries and sugar stirred together until sugar melts, really fresh tasting! And try lingonberries with caramel or dulce de leche in dessert, works really well! Greetings from Finland, love your videos! :)

    What a fun video. Always enjoy the hunt and with a slingshot no less.
    Those sandwiches looked delicious one of my favorites for after Thanksgiving.
    Have to say you both seem more animated especially Ariel you've come out of your shell and you seem more at ease and have a great sense of humor.
    Can't wait to see whats next.
    Blessings to you both. ,😊🇺🇲

    Now that was a heck of a sandwich!! You sure don't mind doing it up different, yum!! Yup, winter's here - putting up food, putting plants to bed, switching to nice, cozy flannel sheets....it's time!! Hope you don't get too much snow all at once; stay safe and cozy, be happy!!❤

    The condition of your dogs is so impressive .... the shine on their coat is obviously from being fed so well. ❤

    My favorite is always the stuffing. I am vegetarian so I don’t like it inside a turkey, but I love the casserole style version my grandma always made:)

    I used to be a hardcore berry-picker .... blue/huckle berries, blackberry, raspberry, wild black cherry, wild grapes, rose hips, teaberry, thimbleberry, ground raspberries etc etc. Where I live now, the most prevalent berry is blackberry, but if I wanted to travel a bit, I could get enough huckleberries to make it worth my while. I've only ever got one Spruce grouse, and that was in another state. I still have the feathers from it, that I use in making trout flies for fishing, as well as Ruffed grouse feathers. Those grouse sandwiches looked to die for👍🏻You two are definitely in your element .... utilizing what mother nature gives you to the max. All the best to you Eric & Arielle .... you two continue to hone your skills, making it almost easy .... almost!✌🏻

    With the amount of bird hunting you both do, you should consider getting a German shorthaired pointer! ❤ Love the video!

    As a plant based eater, I much rather see the foraging vs the hunting but alas, I applaud you guys for your Alaskan homestead skills.

    This channel is my absolute favorite! I always look forward to your new posts. I picked up about a year ago & have almost made my way through your backstory… it’s been awesome watching these segments evolve. I’m super impressed, not only by your lifestyle, but by the know how & technical skills you exhibit in the production quality. Your videos are a joy to watch & a beautiful window into Alaska! Thank you for sharing 😊
