    In Spain we usually add lemon juice and raw olive oil to a dish of grilled or boiled fish, even if the fish is cooked with olive oil, the taste of the uncooked olive oil is very special and aromatic. Thanks for the recipe and very interesting book. Like and share 💖

      Johny Doe - Here in Canada (Toronto) we have excellent quality olive oils from all over the Mediterranean - even some organic California varieties. But for me, Greek olive oil is tops - especially from Crete, Mytilene, Messenia, and Amphissa.

    Thank you so much for doing a Spanish dish. I’ve left comments and even had a question answered during a live stream on the topic of the Spanish in North America. As a Puerto Rican who was born in and lived in New England my whole life, it means a lot to see content on the Spanish and their influences in the new world.

    You may notice that this recipe calls for _olive oil_ and not, say, butter or rendered animal fat. This is because the culinary use of butter historically has been part of the culture of Northern Europe -- and _not_ the sunnier, more Mediterranean parts of Europe, where olive oil was the preferred fat. In fact, the ancient Greeks considered butter suited only for barbarians, disparagingly calling them "butter-eaters".

      Right, butter was for the bread of those who lived north of the olive line. I wonder if those who lived close enough were able to trade for for olive oil as a luxury good. After all, butter and olive oil do play well together.

    • @mrdanforth3744
      @mrdanforth3744 6 ปีที่แล้ว +55

      Olive oil was available in the north but was an imported luxury. Often called salad oil or salat oyl it was thought of as a salad dressing . For cooking they used lard, suet, or butter.

      I'm sure for pretty cheap you could make a nice clay mini oven and firepit for cooking. Remember, you can't get anywhere if you never take the first step! So start small and build from there! I'm positive you can do it.
      Good luck!

    Salted, dried salmon wasn’t just a cheaper alternative to fresh salmon: The salted kind was the only salmon available for most of the year. Fresh salmon is highly seasonal- it is only caught when the salmon are “running” (swimming upstream to spawn). In a given area, this window only lasts a few weeks each year. The rest of the year, salted salmon was the only salmon in the centuries before freezing, canning, and airplane shipment of fresh fish from far away.

    As a spanish guy I have to say thank you and very interesting. It looks like today Andalucía (south of spain) "Atún encebollado" (onions and tuna). I would love to taste "dry salmon" in deed . I always thought salmon is too oiled and fatty to dry like we do with cod on spain and portugal today.

    Thank you for the book info and the recipe!

We still have olive trees that the Spanish brought with them in the Mission garden and the olive mill and olive press are part of our interpretation. Some of the Missions up and down the coast press and bottle their oils. I love your channel! Thanks for enlarging your repertoire.

    This makes me extremely curious about your take on Mexican colonial cuisine (or New Spanish cuisine I guess).

Rompope, which is basically mexican eggnogg, would be super fun to see, and you can have it all year long. I hope you try it someday!

    Cool recipe and seemingly very cool book. I would think that maybe the parsley was at some point added to the onions and maybe even the salmon let to poach with them at the end of the cooking process so the flavors mix a bit? Probably not in the original recipe but that's what I'd do. Also I would probably use a flatter broader type of ceramic vessel, more similar to a large pan, very common in traditional Spanish cuisine.

    Hope you do some of Cajsa Wargs recipes. I know that one of my great great grandmother's sent her copy of "Hjelpreda i Hushållningen För Unga Fruentimber" with her daughter when she traveled from Sweden to her husband in America.
    "As onion on the salmon" (lök på laxen) is saying in Sweden used to signifying when something bad got worse.
    Researchers think the reason (for the saying) was that during the end of the salmon run (everyone ate a LOT of salmon) onions was ready for harvest. So for weeks (minimum tru September) farmhands only ate salmon and onions because it was cheap and the farmers had more than what they could store.

    Nice new recipe from another culture - love that. Especially excited to learn Native American dishes.

    That looked sooooo good. French cookery would be interesting to explore as well.

    I love your videos. There's a non biased passion for straight history on here, and I can see your passion for it. Small bit of criticism for this video, between 6:40 and 6:50 there is a subtitle pileup that needs attention. Once again, you're all doing great!

    I'm very interested in these recipes from other cultures as it is a glimpse of life from those countries during the 18th century. I wonder if some of practices of these other cultures have been adopted by the Americans in the 18th century and/or vice versa?

    Just for fun, could you take a look at New England, Canadian French and Acadian dishes from Canada?

    so happy to see more recipes and especially for branching out in your cookery! I have never poached salmon before, but I definitely want to cook this next week. If I do I'll be sure to post it and tag it on your instagram. :)

    Unfortunately I'm not a big fan of onions, but I still enjoyed watching this! Always love things from past centuries, and admittedly I don't see a lot of Spanish cookbooks from past times.

    Thanks so much for this, Jon! I wonder what they were doing/cooking in the Spanish parts of North America? They were colonising Florida, Texas and parts of the Southwest. I wonder what different folks were cooking up in those areas.

    "Oh sweet friends! Hearken to me! " I would love to see your interpretation of Moby Dick clam or cod chowder.
