THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Alone and Kenai
Vietnamese Pickled Daikon & Carrot (Đồ Chua)
Recipe makes 2 quarts - 1 for you and 1 for a friend. 😉
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. - daikon radish
1 lb. - carrots
2 Tbsp salt
1Cup water - Boiling
10 Tbsp granulated sugar
8 Tbsp white vinegar
Extra water as needed
Peel daikon and carrots, then cut into small matchsticks. Smaller cuts will pickle faster. In a large bowl, sprinkle with salt evenly and toss to coat. Soak for 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly to remove the salt and drain. Add to wide mouth quart jars, filling almost to the top. Mix the brine (vinegar solution) Boil water then add sugar, mix to dissolve, then add vinegar. Add the liquid to jars to fully submerge daikon & carrots. If needed add additional water to top off. It is important that the daikon and carrots remain under the liquid. I use a small 4oz jar to weigh the vegetables down and keep them submerged. Screw on the lids, being careful to not overly tighten. There will be some off gassing as the fermentation process occurs. So just finger tight should do. Store at room temperature until pickled to your taste, about 2-5 days. Refrigerate when ready, for up to 5 months, or until too sour or veggies lose their crunch.
Good morning Alone, great idea using your wood stove as a dehydrator. You are becoming a natural woman living in a remote area. Not many woman like you anymore, which is why I am still single, lol. I am really enjoying watching your videos, to tell the truth, I wasn't so sure in the beginning but, you certainly caught my attention and I am glad. What I like about your new life and videos is, you have fun at it and that is what makes a real BUSHRAT. That's right, a BUSHRAT is what we lifelong Alaskans refer to someone who can live simply off grid and make it work. Welcome to the clan.
Is getting pinned, good? LOL
Ahhhh well thank you John! I graciously accept the BUSHRAT title! WOW 😁 So you had your doubts huh? 🤔 Some city slicker gal just buying a cabin out in Alaska, wearing dresses and a hip holster and cooking duck? I don't blame you one bit actually!! 🤣But I do love this life and this lifestyle and am happy that I get to finally do it. AND that there are so many great people sharing their knowledge with everyone! It just makes this entire journey so much fun! Tough! But fun! There are not many that have the amount of experience in Alaska as you do John, so I take this as an incredible compliment! Good to be a part of the BUSHRAT clan. Do we get jackets? 😜 Thank you John!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska
Jackets are optional, lol
Well said you old bushrat
@@TrapperScottyAlaskan thank you, thank you very much, lol
Being a mother of 3 boys (all grown now). They used to complain that there was not any "good food" in our house "just ingredients" LOL. I cooked everything from scratch. Love a good Bánh mì sandwich. Good video.
My kids were the same way until I taught them how to cook with those ingredients. It was nice to hear my kids tell me we needed more "spices" instead of we needed more junk food! And I stop for all Banh Mi sandwiches! Even at the airport! Thank you! 🧡😁
Man shopping for 6 months at a time would be a tough one for me. Not that I couldn't do it but I wouldn't be able to catch the deals and sometimes thats the highlight of my day. Since I work in a grocery store I'm always catching the deals. We have been doing a ton of canning lately with marked down veggies and meat. Never made the carrot and Daikon pickles befor but im going to have to try it. I LOVE Daikon radishes. Thanks for sharing the rest of the story. Till next time God Bless
See that is smart! Work the grocery store and you get to see the deals before anyone! You make the best videos on preserving marked down bargains! The parmesan wheel was an interesting one too! But no chain grocery stores out here! Just the mom and pops that only employ mom and pop! 😁 Hope you like the daikon/carrot mix! I think you will love it! Careful though! It's addictive! 🤣 You take care!
@@randallbundy108 I see your point But this isnt a liberal- thing its a capitalist thing we live in a capitalist country not a conservative- liberal country. Both sides want us to spend our money as soon as we get it. The more we spend the happier they become. I say catch the deals on the things you will be using instead of paying full price and falling farther behind. I wish we could go bact to being self sufficient but we both know that will never happen especially in Alaska we simply have to be able to buy the things we need. I would never be able to grow enough food to feed myself or family for a hole year. So I must work earn money and buy items at the store. For alone she shops every 6 months and has to pay whatever they are asking for at that time. Me I catch the deals and most things I never pay full price for. Like peanut butter,butter,bread,meat,eggs,flour,noodles,and the list goes on. But yes I do understand what you mean.
As a person of Vietnamese descent, I love that you're making do chua in the middle of a remote cabin in Alaska!! ❤️ And you spelled it accurately when I don't even know how ☺️.
Do Chua and Banh Mi are some of my favorite meals! I learned to make it in Colorado because I would order it so much at the restaurants and I knew I would want to eat it still in Alaska! No Door Dash out here! LOL! And I want to cook things out here that not too many people in Alaska are cooking! So many recipes to make still! Stay tuned! :-)
I've never cooked so much from scratch or eaten food so close to the source until we moved up here...but you ma'am, you're amazing. I wanna learn all your wisdom. Thanks for these vids.
Hello there fellow Alaskan! So glad you found my channel! I have always cooked from scratch and love some of the creations I have made. But not all of them! :-) Thank you kindly for the compliments! I will be pouring all of my wisdom into making these videos! I very much appreciate any advise you have as well. I have learned so much from viewers. Thank you Cleo! :-)
Great for you to show that life does not have to be complicated with a lot of stuff and specialized gear. You can do almost everything with just the basics if you are creative.
Best part of living this lifestyle! How can you make it work with what you have! This lifestyle will force you to be creative out of necessity but its also fun! 😁 Thank you Dave!
For fine chopped celery, slice each stalk vertically in 4 parts, then slice across.
Gotcha! That would make the dehydrate go much quicker! Thank you so much! :-)
really good lesson on dehydrating! Thank you!
I love this recipe. I have not heard about doing this until now. I love to cook homemade food. Been cooking all my life. Can't wait to see more of what you cook.
I do have a lot of recipes I will be making. I am trying to make stuff not being made too much on TH-cam. This little mix is so tasty on just about everything! Except oatmeal! 🤣Thank you Eric!
OMGOSH Zucchini bread yummmmm it's a family favorite for us!! I recently purchased small loaf pans so I can make zucchini bread in my camp oven and because I was SHOCKED at the cost of zucchini I planted two plants so i can grow my own. Not an easy feat in the desert but I'm stubborn and determined!!
My planned garden someday will have plenty of zucchini! I do like it fried up but in zucchini bread 😳OMG! Put some butter on that and with a cup of coffee or tea! HEAVEN!! I think a zucchini loaf would only last about 8 hours 😁 Well! Kenai needs some too! It's not just me!! 🤣 You will make those zucchini grow! Bring the plants inside if you have too! 😁 Zucchini bread is at stake here Liz!!
Very kewl on dehydrating celery!
I find that I use it more often when I dehydrate the celery! But I do like raw celery from time to time as well! Thank you so much! :-)
You rock. Rib-eye getting ready to hit a red hot cast iron skillet. :)
Hello to another woman who lives remote and alone that is so cool I didn’t know how many of us there were so glad to see your channel.
Yes a few of us just in the comment section! I bet there are more than we realize! Thank you so much! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska 🥰🥰🥰
Wow, that is a most excellent solution to use instead of the pucks. Thank you so much for sharing that.
I have been binge watching and subscribed . I recently moved from the Texas coast to Northern Michigan and people wondered why . Not as remote as you but I am raising Grandsons . But I totally get it ! And the fact that you can work remotely and obviously have computer and editing skills I bet this channel will pay for an Awesome deck by this time next year . Thanks for entertaining me while I wasn’t feeling well the last few days ! We got work to do , it is Spring !
I sure hope you are feeling better Toni! Glad my videos were there for you! Thank you so much for binge watching and subscribing! I really do appreciate that! Raising grandsons! RESPECT! Hey what's wrong with Northern Michigan? LOL! People would ask my why Alaska and I would say because of that response! Not many people think to move to Alaska! But I am lucky to be able to work online that's for sure. My filming and editing all started with this channel. I truly enjoy filming and editing way more than I thought I would! :-) And that deck is going in next year one way or another! I'm going to miss the view from up there! Thank you for joining me on this journey Toni! Fun times ahead! Stay tuned! :-)
Hi @Alone in Remote Alaska. I just came upon your channel and I subscribed after watching a few videos. I follow a couple who live in Alaska off grid. I am retired Air Force and was stationed in Alaska for seven years back in 85. I love the Summers, but the Winters are very harsh. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Dianna first I would like to say "Thank you for your service" 100%! Your service is why I can live the way I do! Summer time is nice in Alaska and that's why it fills up with tourists! Fortunately and unfortunately sometimes. Tourists don't bother me one bit as long as they are courteous.😉 But winter time is pretty harsh! 😳I think I enjoy winter time more but don't quote me on that just yet!🤣I do thank you for joining my journey here in Alaska!
The recipe looks great Alone! I'll have to try it! I love daikon. Thank you for sharing! ~ Chris
I didn't really know about daikon until I had a Banh Mi sandwich. They are the worlds best sandwich! The carrot and daikon mixture is in it. So yummy!! But this mixture is great with steak too! 🤣 Thank you Christopher!
I keep a steady supply of granola bars on hand at all times😂 Looking forward to some more canning and recipes. Love the pantry to. Looks like it’s was made to fit three rows of cans. I’ve been loving the spring weather lately. I think next week we will start planting in the garden. Have a great evening.
Nothing wrong with granola bars! LOL 🤣 I think the previous owners made the shelving to the "wife's" specifications so yeah probably made to spec on 3 cans! 😁 I just need to add a lip to it like Steve T suggested. For those pesky earthquakes! Woohoo planting time! And you have more garden space this year! Looking forward to gardening vicariously through you and Dianna! I'm loving the warm weather too! But since we aren't getting more snow, this 3 feet of snow on the ground needs to go away!! 🤣 New roof starts next week! Thank you Brian and Dianna! 😁 You take care! Live Free!
thank you for sharing your fantastic life.
And thank you for being a fantastic viewer (subscriber?). Sorry I never assume commenters are subscribers! 😁 But you always do comment! Thank you!
I was unable to click the like button..... it would not register..... keep making videos..... don't stop.... good stuff..... I think your channel will grow..... great scenery
Thank you so much Jay! I actually have a new video uploading now! I hope you will stick around for that one! Hopefully TH-cam will let you hit the like button on the next video! I am glad you enjoyed this video and I sure hope my channel grows! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska growth is exponential..... 200 subs only share with 200 = 400..... 400 share with 400 = 800 ..... 10,000 share with 10,000 = 20,000 ..... but remember it starts slowly...... 2 share with 2 is only 4 ..... yup .... just be yourself, you are very likeable and informative and that is truly beautiful area up there...... (too many fakey "superstars" on youtube)
Thank you Jay! I don't mind the channel growing slowly. Just not too slow! I do enjoy making videos though. Can't imagine what its like for TH-camrs that don't enjoy filming and editing though. This video did very well for my sub count! And yes fake superstars on TH-cam are the exact videos I try to avoid! Thank you Jay! :-)
I love that you wear long skirts!! I do too, and although we're not as remote as you are, we're homesteading the Adirondack region. I love longer heavy skirts, and really tunic dresses and shorter knee length for summer or deep snow. Enjoying sharing your journey!
Hello Leigh! I love your channel! Anyone reading this comment please check her out! th-cam.com/video/UHDaccJ75II/w-d-xo.html As for the skirts and dresses, I love wearing them. I used to get teased about it at work (in Colorado) but I didn't care! 😁I am hoping to make some skirts as soon as my stuff is brought up from Colorado! I will definitely need to catch up on your channel this weekend! Thank you so much for stopping by! 😁
Hello from arizona. God provides for us always
Yep. Have to wait for something to eat.. 😂
Love the pantry.👍
Having to wait to eat sure cuts down on snacking! Unless its a fruit or veggie! 😉 I like big open shelf pantries! You can see what's running low 😁
You're me in a different country 🥰 You inspire me to embrace more of myself but living in Sydney, Australia aka city time flies in the day and by the time I do me... months go by. Much appreciated to have your channel. Stay warm n cosy n beautiful Alaska 🤗🌼
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! :-) Staying as warm as I can! LOL! :-)
"I'm drinking it for the flavor, not for the alcoholic effects." Yeah, me too. Bourbon's got a lot of flavor.
Lolol!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Ahhhh look at you all poking fun! LMAO! :-) Let’s just say I limit it to cooking and spicing up coffee. But only one cup every few weeks! But you’re not kidding, Bourbon does have a lot of flavor! LOL!! :-)
Are you related to my husband. 🤣🤣
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Bourbon Chicken is a popular Asian dish.
Poor Rezneck upbringing here. Your favorite meal is close. Fried taters, with some leftover beans and hamhocks over the top next to the steak over fries, and I do love my fries! Dad would say venison steak over beef, used to agree, but I'm a beef eater. Picked berries, gathered roots, gathered greens, hunted whatever was wandering the ranch, gardened, canned, the whole old school method was our normal. Still stock up like we're way in the boonies, but it's a bit closer to town now. Gotta be 25 cases of canned veggies within 20 feet of my office space, upgrading beer making gear to keg instead of bottles. Hate cleaning all those things! More people should be taking cues from you, especially with the upcoming fun we seem to be aimed at.
Oh yeah! Hamhocks and beans! I do like venison but ribeye is where its at for me. You should live like you are living no matter how close to town you are! That’s awesome! Keep stocking up and don’t forget to rotate! LOL! Thank you so much! :-)
Great idea by stocking up on food and supplies cause of your location there. That was an interesting way of hydrating using the wood stove. Pickling is another great way storing food for several months. When I lived on the farm back in the 70's my mon and dad did that too and even still once we moved too the big city.
With winter around here and no way to plow the driveway yet, I have to prepare for worst case scenario. It takes a huge effort to get ready for winter and eventually when I have my garden built I wont have to purchase so much. Pickling and dehydrating are effective and the food still tastes awesome! And like your mom and dad, it can easily be done anywhere! Thank you so much Lenny! 🧡🤗💚
That's a pretty picture, that shelf of grub, that's lady trapper style. You should be dam proud of yourself. You are stylin
Trapper Scotty! I haven't seen you in the comments for a spell! 🤔You know I have walked over to that shelf of grub and just smiled. It always feels good to be re-stocked. Once I can get my root cellar all shelved up, I can store even more! Now I just need to get an ammo rack and I will be set! 😁 Good to see you Trapper Scotty!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I commented on your "munchie" post and you didnt comment back ?
@@TrapperScottyAlaskan I sure did! I replied to both 😁
Learned something, & beef , taters great. Live in Ala. That's how spring is. .watch you next Thursday.. have a great day.
I am definitely a meat and potatoes kind of gal! 🤣 Thank you John and I will be here next week for sure! 😉 Take care!
Howdy friend
1st time watcher
Great video, I liked and subscribed
Thank you
God bless 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much Pauletta! I really do appreciate that! :-) I hope to see you in the comments often! :-)
Very excited to try your method with the celery .. stay save
Dehydrating celery is great! One of my favorite "go to" seasonings I end up using! So I have to dehydrate celery a lot! 🤣Thank you Gabe!
Thank you for the GREAT alternative to fermenting pucks!!!
I’m making my list now for your radish and carrots 🥕. This is the first year I will be fermenting . I’ve canned for years. I should say I’m 70 years. I’m going to visit Alaska in August.
Hello Gayla! The mix is more of a pickle than a ferment. I may have made a mistake saying that in the video once or twice! You will love Alaska! Be careful though! You may not want to leave! LOL :-) Thank you so much! :-)
I like kaulau n hot chocolate on a cold nite sittin in bed reading!!!!! I like a berry or peach cobbler in winter too!!!!
Ahhh did you have to mention cobbler! Great! Now I'm hungry! But I do agree with you on the Kahlua :-)
Hello Alone, next time you visit one of the awesome rivers in your area, look for river rocks, smooth and round that would make perfect weights for your jars, keep with the whole natural vibe. “Daikon taste like Jicama”, now that really helps, haha I’ve had Jicama at Mexican restaurant before, just don’t see it around much, and I cook. Ribeye, homemade fries and Beer? Where have you been all my life? Take care, Funny lady
Well that could work! I like to collect river rocks anyway (shhhhhh!! 🤫) I know daikon is available everywhere, even Walmart. Probably just called white radish or asian radish. Don't all gals like Ribeye, fries and a beer?? 🤣 No salads for this gal! Well that's not true. Fruit salad! Taco salad! Potato salad! ok ok I will stop! 🤣
Yep, Ribeyes, Delmonico's here as well. As an old guy of 58, I still have not yet had a better steak or loaded taters at a restaurant better than I make myself. I usually get taken advantage of at camps, I get to be camp cook, but I guess I asked for it with my welded steel cookbox (bearproof). I never understood why more men don't cook more, I don't know one that doesn't like to eat. Subbed.
A man that not only loves to cook but can cook a great meal is pretty rare! For most, once you get past chili it goes downhill LOL! And I am not talking about chefs that cook a tiny filet with fancy garnish! Spare me!! When I was raising my kids and we would eat at restaurants they would always say the way I cooked it tastes better. And that wasn’t even giving them the evil eye to make sure they said it! At 58 years young, you may be camp cook for a long time! Alaska is always looking for camp cooks for the hunting lodges! Just FYI :-) Thank you so much for the sub! It is greatly appreciated!
Hello. I just came across your channel. Very inspirational. God bless!
Thank you so much! :-)
Hello I just came across ur channel... ur carrot n dicon recipes sou do good. I do beets an a pepper an onion an jalapeños in a bread an butter brine.... an than cool store them .. refrigerator storage... they turn sweet an not hot...
Ok that sounds absolutely delicious! I love beets! I sure don't mind if it gets spicy though! Thank you Debbie! I hope you like my channel and will stick around for my journey! 😁
HILLS BROS. COFFEE?????!!!!! OMG!!!! I haven't seen that since I was a kid in Chicago! It was my Mom's favorite brand!!! 💓
Wonderful episode, at this point I bet you couldn’t wait to use the pantry as soon as it was finished for storage etc
I do a fermented salsa (tomatoes, onions, green bell pepper, and cilantro) like this. I love the idea of this! Totally making it!
OMG! fermented salsa!! That sounds YUMMY!! Thank you so much for that suggestion! Definitely trying that too! Awesome! 😁
Everyone cans differently. But in the end it all boils down to what you’re comfortable with.
I’ve reached the end of the videos- I’ll be watching for you next week - stay safe!
That’s so cool! Thank you Ann! No bigger compliment than someone willing to binge your channel! Hopefully you noticed some improvements? 🤣 I have never filmed or edited a video in story form so you are seeing my first times! I post every Thursday (internet permitting) and commenter Charles Quick lets me know if I am late! 🤣 I love it! Thank you!
You can can butter and make your own caramels, and buy flour and sugar to make your own pastries
Haven't tried making my own caramels yet
Love a well stocked pantry. Glad that wasn't your cart at the store. Meat and potatoes all the way. Recipe looks good. You are full of surprises, resourceful you are. Looking forward to seeing your projects come together.
I wont say there was never a time in my life that I pushed a cart like that around though. I did go through pregnancy three times!! 🤣 BUT I never allowed my kids to eat like that. My eldest son would actually crave vegetables! Like get mad because I didn't put enough veggies in a dish! 🤔My daughter became a vegetarian. Lets just say I got to eat a lot of steak 😁 Roof project starts next week! Very excited! I think 🤔 Thank you Ashley!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I have a love hate relationship with food. I'm allergic to milk/ dairy. Favorite thing in the world is a chocolate milk shake. But it is one of the most painful things to consume for me. I have just recently had to change the way I eat. Not what I wanted, but I guess it's better than the alternative 😁. I could never be a vegetarian. I guess I am getting closer to it than I would have wanted, but I'm not going to give up on my steak and burgers altogether, just cut way down.
@@ashleyanderson2859 I cant eat onions or eggs. Sometimes I just eat eggs and pay for it later. I do try to avoid onions though. But onion or garlic powder (which is in everything prepackaged) will knock me out for a spell. No way could I be vegetarian or vegan either! Life with no steak or hamburger or duck? NOPE! 🤣
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Duck is one of the few things I have not tried or had the opportunity to anyways. How do you find the time to respond to everyone. You must not get much sleep.
@@ashleyanderson2859 LOL 🤣I respond every chance I have. Break time for lunch or just rest breaks. While laying in bed in the morning or at night! While I eat dinner! I also make time every day just for comments. I do miss a few though so older videos I don’t get to unless they are new comments. TH-cam doesn’t always notify me on replies. I look for them! I make up all my missing sleep on the weekends! If I am not running to town. 😁
Stumbled upon your channel a few hours ago by the blessing of the TH-cam algorithm. No idea how exactly that happened, but nevertheless, I’m glad it did.
I’m quite possibly the furthest away from you that is possible. I’m an eighteen year old living in Melbourne, Australia. Started Uni (basically College) in a degree I’ve always wanted to study. It’s fun - don’t get me wrong. But… sometimes, whenever I’m least expecting it…
I feel “disenchantment” to be too strong a word, but whatever it’s milder cousin is - that’s probably what I feel.
Who knows. Maybe it’s a side-effect of mild anxiety. At this point I feel it matters little in the context of this comment.
Currently going through and binging your videos. They’re beautiful. Not necessarily referring to the editing - but I mean it in the sense that your content is so genuine and calm, tranquil yet moving, subtle yet clear.
Its definitely something that’s caught my eye and tugged at my heart.
Keep doing what you’re doing - and I’ll watch your journey with great interest. May your path be well-lit on your journey onwards under a sky full of stars.
However you found my channel I am very glad you did! You really are far away huh 🤣 But at 18 years old, you have SO MUCH time left to decide what matters most to you. Finish college THEN decide what to do. It's always smart to have a back up plan! I have been planning this lifestyle for decades and I finally get to live it! I didn't necessarily plan on doing TH-cam though 🤣 But so glad I did. But my channel is the real deal. Just a gal finally living her dream life. And all the struggles and excitement of doing it. I have never had anyone call my videos all those awesome words you did so THANK YOU! That made my day! Many more videos coming soon! Mostly construction on the roof finally!! Thank you so much for the views and comment! 😁
Oh wow! I can’t wait to try this! Glad to have found you. I live in Phoenix, Arizona. So hot here already! I am looking forward to watching more of your videos, and learning a lot from you!
Hello again Janet! I seem to be answering these comment out of order! LOL! I really do try to make my videos informative or entertaining. If I am lucky I can do both! Thank you so much! :-)
Just found your Channel and watched them all in one day. Your a brave lady. I could handle the isolation but the cold no way. Im in Ct and 20 very rarely 10 degrees is too cold for me. I also love my big veggie garden and chickens ducks and rabbits. It seems it would be much harder to keep them all alive there. Good luck with your cabin and you have a new viewer.
Thank you so much Lori!! :-) Yeah you do get used to the negative degrees though. Now 30-40 degrees is toasty to me! Chickens, ducks and rabbits do well up here! Strong little critters they are! So happy to have you along for my journey here! Thank you! :-)
I’m glad you have stocked up. I’ve had trouble buying white northern beans, black beans, smoked porkchops and many other things I usually eat.
I have had great luck finding what I need in various cities/towns. I do try to hit as many stores as I can to get everything I need in one trip. I just ended up buying half a hog and half a cow so I don't have to do any meat shopping in town. Thank you Denise! 😁
Awesome.
I am like you, no sweet, no snacks. No processed food, I am an Asian living in US.
I do occasionally enjoy some caramel candy but I can usually satisfy a sweet tooth with fruits or veggies. But processed foods, NO! I prefer real food! :-)
‘Beer is my soda’ HA! Same girl, same!
🤣🤣 Right?! You know 🤣🤣
My daddy used to say when we asked for Coke Cola, no you will just drink them. So funny to hear your mother say that
HA! I used to just tell my kids “No I don’t want you eating/drinking that”. And now they love veggies! :-)
Please journal all the little things that don't make it to a video you may just do a book one day! Buy sturdy rectangle washing up bowls with side handlesfor the freezer.( not dollarstore type) I use them stacked. Each one holding one type of product fish, veges, pork etc. So vertically bottom to top, in a stack of bins, all beef for example. Works for me. I have even made a list of what is in there and how many, because it's easy to forget. I then change that number when using. I can also see that I need to start using up certain items as I haven't adjusted that item on the list much. The pickle is going to be tried this week.
Hey I like that idea for the freezers! Heck anything is better than the way I have it now! :-) Lists however I am not so good at. I could make one but I just know me. I will always forget to subtract. ALWAYS!! I will be dating items I put in the freezer though with a marker. I hope you like the pickle recipe! I tend to like it just a little too much! :-) LOL Thank you Maggie! Awesome suggestions! :-)
One beer guy too..😂 IPA I want to taste it if I’m having one.
Makes you slow down to enjoy it when you only limit yourself to one! 🤣
So cool!
So glad you liked the video! I hope you stick around for my journey up here! :-)
Thank you for teaching me how to Fermt vegetables
It’s a pickle. If I said ferment in the video I was mistaken but a ferment video will be coming soon! Thank you Nora! :-)
Great video!!!
Ahhhh thank you so much Linda! 🤗🧡
That pantry wall looks great! I too do not buy anything ready, although I have to admit, I love chocolate! 😊 Right now I have a lemoncake in the oven. Will have my family over tomorrow for dinner, and I need something with the coffee. 🎂 Will bake an applepie too, and serve with icecream. 💕 I love baking.
You said all the magic words in that comment! Chocolate! Cake! Dinner! Coffee! Apple Pie! ICE CREAM!!!!! 🤣 I think I need a moment! LOL You know, when I first saw this cabin on the inside, I looked at that wall of shelving and dreamed of how I would stock it full! And on top of that, once I get my root cellar equipped with racking! My cabin will look like a Walmart! 😜 I like cooking but can only tolerate baking! 😁
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska 😂 The dinner meal is like an undernote, I have to feed them.. Make a big lasagna, salad and garlic bread. Done! Then, desserts, cakes... Hahah.. You see where I put my energy! 😂 Have a wonderful day. Its my Birthday, I am working from home - writing my resignation letter! Yeah...🍾🍾🍾🍾 I was offered a new job yesterday!🍾🍾🍾🍾 Happy camper here, my new life begins from August, cutting my hours and working part time! Hello life! 💕
@@ibislife HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Don't you just get a thrill out of writing a resignation letter? Not as big of a thrill as getting a new job though! About the only way you can get a raise now a days! But cutting back the hours too! You lucky gal!! Yes exactly! Hello life! CONGRATS!!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Thank you! 🎂 Reduced hours has been in the making since I moved in here 🍾. I live on a budget, and maybe I will do some crafting as a side income? 😉 Hahah.. How wonderful to have time for gardening, dogs, old mom, baking and just for me! And reduce hours lost behind the wheel commuting!
@@ibislife I can be fairly crafty myself. IF I had the time. I hope someday I can do TH-cam full time and that will be fun. My 9-5 really wears me out some days. But at least I don’t have to commute!😜 You enjoy the reduced hours and garden more! Maybe someday soon, you wont need to work! Except doing your crafting! Sounds nice! 😁
Lovely video. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
You bet! I post a new video every Thursday! I hope to see you in the comments again! Thank you Diane! :-)
I'm not a baker ...anymore. My kids are all grown up and neither my husband nor I 'need' cookies and other goodies. BUT, I do bake at the cabin while we are there over the winter. I make bread, cinnamon buns and occasionally cookies.
I dehydrate celery too, as well as carrots, zucchini, apples, peaches, apricots (we summer in the Okanagan area of BC). It makes it so easy to whip up a big pot of soup at the cabin. I open a jar of canned moose, add handfuls of dried carrots, dried celery, freeze dried onions, dried potatoes (my husband grew a ton of potatoes the first covid summer, and dried them on window screens on our deck.) and dried zucchini. Throw in a can of diced tomatoes and season to taste. Nothing like hot homemade soup after being outside in a northern winter! I'm going to have to try you pickle recipe! Looks yummy! Take care!-Sue
OK Sue! My video was supposed to make people hungry. Your comment made me hungrier! 🤣You two are definitely living the dream life! Your winter cabin is just so perfect! You just had to mention cinnamon buns didn't you!🙄 Hope you like the recipe! I eat it almost every night or just tend to snack on it! You two take care out there!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Lol! My bad! But...we're even!! I've been craving pickles ever since watching your video! And I'm too old to be preggers, so...!!
Pickles are ok but if you start craving pickles and ice cream!! Oh boy!! LOL! Thank you Sue! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska 😂
Spring has sprung here in NW California. I planted 3 dozen strawberry plants about two months ago and they're starting to flower. I have to cover them with chicken wire, or the deer will wipe them out overnight. We get earthquakes here fairly regular, and I think Alaska does too? I added a front lip to my pantry shelves to keep stuff from falling to the floor. Just an idea for you. I'm very excited to see the new roof get put on! Thank you for bringing us along.
OOOO strawberries!!!! I will definitely be planting them! When I start my garden, strawberries will most likely be in the geodesic dome (for protection). Maybe put some auto tracking machine guns in the garden for them pesky animals trying to eat my winter harvest! Ok maybe just chicken wire but you know. Same concept. 😜Alaska does get earth quakes. Its either more than any other place in the US or the world.😳 But yes, I will be adding a lip to the shelves for sure. Thank you for the reminder! Roofing starts next week! You will get to see every step! Thank you Steve! 😁
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Thank you for the reply! A machine gun with motion sensor activation sounds perfect! 😅
@@stevet8121 I’m looking on Amazon as we speak! 🤣
This channel is going to explode very soon. Great content. Glad the algorithm brought me here 😃
OK Oliver! I have been purposely preventing my channel from exploding because I am just not ready for that level of fame ....... Oh who am I kidding! 🤣 TH-cam does a great job of feeding me little tiny bits of algorithm here and there to keep my channel on life support! 🤣 I do hope it grows (or explodes) someday though. I truly enjoy filming and editing videos for everyone. Would be nice to not have to work my 9-5 (actually its more like 8-8) and just pour everything into TH-cam. But you saw all that food right?! They demanded money in exchange! But I will say the algorithm does bring my channel great viewers like you and I appreciate all of it! I post a new video every Thursday (internet permitting) and some others when I can get to them. I thank you for the views and the comment! Now go tell everyone you know about my channel!! 🤣Thank you Oliver!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska so impressed with all the food and preserved things and so many great ideas and hints! You’re very well prepped! Will certainly recommend your channel to everyone I know who watches similar content ☺️
@@oliverfisher4773 Well thank you so much Oliver! I really to appreciate that! 😁
Tuned in for the dou chu recipe. Thanks for the suggestion of using the 4oz jar as a "pickling puck", I never would have thought of that. I love your pantry.
HA! Awesome! Yeah living out here, sometimes you just have to figure it out somehow! 🤣 And I love to share that knowledge if I can! I hope like the Do Chua recipe! I just can't stop eating it!! I have been known to just walk over to my pantry and just look at it 😳 Thank you Suzanne!
Hi, just found ur channel. You are so refreshing and down to earth. Looking forward to watching more cheers 🌷🇨🇦
I am so glad you found my channel! Thank you for all your other comments too! I've never had anyone call me refreshing but this gal accepts all compliments! 🤣 Down to earth oh yeah. I cant even tell you how many times I have been editing my videos and stopped to say "I can't say that!!" or "I cant word it that way!" Reshoot! Thank you for watching my videos and I hope to see you in the comments all the time! I post a new video every Thursday! Thank you Lyn! 😁
Awesome video.
Thank you Dave! I always enjoy your videos too! 😁
That was cool 😎
Thank you so much! :-)
I to seek this for now thanks for sharing
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much William! :-)
Great job on stocking up the pantry. Always better to be prepared! You made me hungry 😋
Not much to worry about in the summer time but I just don't like going to the city. So I stock up! Probably piss off the restock crews though! Like who buys so many jars of peaches!! 🤣
I love it. Yep we always piss some one off. You’re doing great. Raining here today. We need it. California sucks. Take care and can’t wait to see what’s next. 👋🏻
@@done7352 Hey I moved away from Little California (AKA COLORADO) But California always needs the water! I’m surprised they haven’t started taxing you for sweating! 🤣 ………. Yet
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska it’s probably coming. Crazy days ahead. I should have done what your doing years ago. 🤣
OHHHH come on Ken! It's not too late! Even if its just get out of the city! That's something! Cali has some great areas to homestead or just live! :-)
Hello from Dublin Ireland. I just found and subscribed to your channel today. I also live alone and i have 3 cats. I love to watch other peoples alternative or differant lifestyles its very inspiring and you can learn a bit. Also i don't feel so lonely bit i like living alone so it is not really a big problem. I have so far watched a few of your previous videos. Do you mind me asking how do you support yourself there do you seasonal or from Home? I am early retired.
Hello Linda from Ireland! Its amazing that my videos are being watched there! Thank you! I to love living alone. I may be alone but I'm not lonely. I have my dog Kenai who is my shadow! We talk. I usually win all the arguments. But not all. Currently I work for the same company I did in Colorado. I sit in front of my computer at the cabin and I do purchasing and reporting. Lots of emails and lots of excel spreadsheets. My goal is to be able to do TH-cam full time someday though. Thank you so much for watching my videos and commenting Linda! :-)
you can bake bread rising it in the oven, turn oven on 5 min and turn off then place the bread to rise. It’s that simple. Your wood stove can also be used to rise bread!
Thank you so much :-)
I'm only at :41 and I see Kirkland Signature. Big bulk stores make supply hauling so much easier.
I have been to a Costco a few times in Colorado. Back when I was married. I haven't shopped Costco out here in Alaska. Not yet anyway. But I think a lot of the smaller stores that I hit up from time to time get their stock from Costco. Sure makes it easier for them. I have purchased Kirkland brand stuff at Krogers/King Soopers. :-) Thank you so much!
Your channel this video was in my suggested and wow I am ever so grateful! I just subscribed and I hit the notification Bell even though I am not off grid LOL I am completely on-grid and I don't want to be but it is what it is and I believe God is telling me to grow where I am planted. I can't wait to watch your videos and see what your life is like
Welcome Tinfoil Brat! I love that name! 🤣 I am also very grateful that TH-cam pointed you here! I appreciate the view, comment and sub! I hope you will enjoy my other videos as well! But if you have a dream to be off grid or at least more secluded, don't let that dream slip by! Trust me! Its worth it! The absolute quietness out here is incredible! Except when Kenai starts to snore! 🤨
I had some pretty good Kimchis in Korea that had a large Daikon content...Daikon is very useful.
I should make some Kimchi next!
You had me at chili beans and peaches in a glass jar . I would give the pickle stuff a try for sure . P.S. I bet that wounded finger felt great in the salt .
HA! Yeah sorry about that! I noticed it when I was editing and was like "no more diakon for a reshoot" 🙄HOWEVER is was just a broken fingernail , no blood! I even took the bandaid off and filed the nail down and didn't even realize I just filmed myself with it on! And that bandaid was only on for like 5-10 minutes! Looked like a troll doll! 🤣
Love your dehydrator! You could also Build some racks that'll sit on top of the wood burner too.
There is a rack hanging above the stove (previous owners) but its too darn high! 🤣 I do plan on building an outdoor kitchen with a dehydrator too. But yes I will be rigging the rack above the stove so I can reach it and possibly dehydrate more at one time. Lots of fruits and veggies to dehydrate! 😁
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska love it.. I do a lot of salted beef jerkey in the electric oven on broil. Only takes about 20 minutes, 15 and flip for about 5. I've also used the smoker to make jerkey in.. that's always some tasty stuff! 😋
@@Oldmanwithagoldpan Homemade jerky always taste the best! But smoked jerky sounds really yummy!! 😁
@Alaska Pirates Huge outdoor kitchen planned! May make it so I can use it in winter too but not when it gets to 50 below and 80 mile winds! An outdoor kitchen is a "must have" for me! One of my life long dreams! Well, besides this cabin of course! 🤣
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska that sounds awesome! And would be great for canning when it's not cold out so you don't overheat the cabin.
Great video
Thank you so much Frankie! I hope you will stick around for my journey up here! So many more videos planned! 😁
You inspired me to make homemade Bahn Mi... Brava!
Isn’t Banh Mi the best sandwich ever!!?? I love it! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Yes!!! I live I. Toronto, and we just decided to go to Chinatown and get one...two. I will pick up diakon and carrots and make the pickle Condiment..
Thanks to you. Looking forward to the roof vid. Lol. Cheers
Had no idea what this Vietnamese food was until my wife explained it to me! And apparently it's good so I'll have to try it sometime lol. Great video as always Ms Alone😊 Looks good!
She is a good woman Josh! You keep her around for as long as you are alive!! 🤣 Vietnamese food is some of the best food! I remember trying fish sauce the first time! I sipped it and was like NO WAY!! But when you mix it with food, oh dear! It's incredible! If you are ever in Anchorage or Fairbanks and see Banh Mi sandwich, buy one! Buy me five also and drop them off 🤣 Thank you Josh! 😁
@Alone in Remote Alaska hahaha I'll do my best to bring ya some! We'll be passing through that way in July to Valdez for Pinks. I'll see what I can do lol 😅
Great videos
Ahhh thank you kindly Marcial! :-)
Miss Alone,
I gussied up the desktop version of the Gazette.
All my stories from a year and a half back,
All my drawings and comics and recipes.
There's lots of content now.
Happy reading
BigT,Alaska
Hey Big T! Yeah you're not kidding huh! Its jammed pack full of good stuff! I like it. Happy reading indeed! 😁
Thanks for sharing your video. I have tried Vietnamese Daikon & Carrot in the Vietnamese Sandwich. It's delicious.
It is delicious! Maybe too delicious! I keep eating it! But better to snack on pickled daikon/carrots than caramels!! :-) Thank you Kimberly!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska You are welcome! there are lots of Vietnamese foods very healthy. You may want to check it out.
I have made a few Vietnamese dishes and various other Asian dishes. They just always have the best flavors! I may be a ribeye and fries kind of gal but I do love Asian food!
I'll try this. Fermented foods are supposed to be good for the gut microbiome, and that helps depression. Amazing that the gut and the brain are so connected.
This is more of a pickle than a ferment but you are 100% correct! Fermented foods are just all around super foods! I try to eat as much ferment as I can! Thank you so much! :-)
I grow a lot of veg including celery, I must get a dehydrated machine, winter is approaching so great idea thanks
Dehydrated celery is awesome! I use it a lot! More so than I use full celery or even frozen. Thank you Owen! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska making celery soup tomorrow which is the 12 may and I’ll be freezing it , so much is ready at one time always the way
I found u tonight watching everyone u are a amazing woman u can do anything and the duck looked so good
Thank you so much Connie! I can do almost anything 😁Had to hire a roofer! But cooking! Oh yeah! This gal knows how to cook! The duck was incredible and Kenai loved it too 🤣 Thank you Connie!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska you are so welcome you have a fan in West Virginia
So awesome! Thank you! :-)
Another tip for your Newfoundland person little tip about cap on your roof take of the top when you start burning wood cap that is
Omg I love you..just found your channel.Everything in this video I needed to know.I have a whole head of celery I haven't used and it's gonna go bad.So this is a wonderful idea.Also I tried dehydrating a few things in my brand new air cooker that has a dehydration setting.It sucked!!!So I needed a new way to do it.I have a woodstove and that is a great idea!!!Also I needed a canning recipes for carrots.I always have so many from the garden.So thank you for all your helpful advice.I will be a frequent flyer of your you tube channel.You rock!!
Well Lissa75 you sound like my kind of people! 🤣 Gardening is so much fun (and work) it's awesome when you get a nice bumper crop! Figuring out ways to store all the fruits and veggies can be difficult! I love pickling what I can. I store carrots in very damp sand and they keep for many months! Crispy too! But dehydrating is great. Still lots of work but better than throwing it away! 😉 I try and stay away from electronics when I can especially when cooking! I didn't even have a microwave for years in Colorado. Thank you so much for joining my journey here in Alaska! I hope all my videos will be informative and entertaining! 😁
Love your show! Im happy I get to be a part of it! This is Shane
Hello there Shane! It is an honor to have you along for my journey up here in Alaska! I post a new VLOG video every Thursday! Stay tuned! :-)
Looks delish
Give it a try! I think you will enjoy it! I enjoy it a little too much! LOL :-) Thank you Ana! :-)
Omg I love your channel!! Thank you for sharing your adventures I subbed!!!
Ahhhh thank you so much! It’s so awesome to have you along for my journey here! :-)
Just found you and subscribed. Looking forward to watching your vlogs. I have two deep freezers, one for veggies, breads, misc... and one for meats. When I bake I make several sweet items to cut up and freeze in single serving in case I want something with a cup of java or tea. Again, looking forward to watching your vlogs.
Hello Barbara! Thank you so much for the sub! I really do appreciate that! I have the same set up with my freezers but may need to get one more. One for the creams, milks and butter. I do love the heavy cream in my coffee! 😜 I really think your method of baking and freezing up single serve portions is genius! But I never have sweets around long enough to freeze up! 🤣 I would have to make a pie to eat and another pie to freeze up in portions!🤣 I post a new VLOG video every Thursday! Thank you so much Barbara! 😁
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Thank you! I am thinking of getting a 3rd freezer also and what a great idea to use for dairy products. I cut up and package my single servings as soon as sweet baked breads, etc... are done cooling or I also would eat entire item. Being in the freezer I forget about them till I am going over the edge for something sweet. giggling :) Wishing you many more subscribers, peace, love and good health.
I am going to try your method still. I like it. I cant find anything in the freezers anyway so it just may help! Thank you so much Barbara! It's great to have you here on my journey! :-)
Rib-eye, baked potato and a ice cold IPA.
Grrrrrrrlfriend, I'm a caramel person too. I like chocolate but I LOVE caramel.
Caramel is my kryptonite! LOL :-)
Now that I have Kidney disease I have to watch meat intake. Fish is my favorite and my airfryer
I have noticed that I do not eat as much meat as I used to. I really enjoy the veggies a lot! Certainly not ever going to be vegetarian though! I do like duck and other game fowl. A nice steak is awesome! As for fish I really do like trout and catfish. Salmon I prefer raw or smoked! I have never used an air fryer! LOL :-)
I noticed that you used some plastic bags for freezing, you might find that a Food Saver will greatly extend the time you can fend off the freezer burn. I’m on my 2nd one, my first lasted about 8 years and through a house of 4 adults! If I had to choose only 2 appliances in a remote setting they would be my Food Saver and Kitchen Aid with grinder and barrels . Definitely time and $$ savers. Love your channel!!!
I do have a Food Saver but its in storage in Colorado! No idea why I left it there but my son will be bringing up all my stuff in August. I should have purchased another one (as back up) but I just couldn't do it! I have never owned a Kitchen Aid mixer though. But I do want to get a manual grinder! Have to have a grinder! Thank you so much! :-)
I am glad that you made your way out of Denver. I am in Cheyenne WY and I dread every time I have to go that way for any Doctor's appointments or to the airport, etc. The political system of Colorado is a nightmare, but so are a lot of people (pretty much across the board). I thoroughly wish I could do what you are doing.
Colorado (AKA little California) was getting way overcrowded for me! And the politics! GRRR 🤨I would have gladly moved to WY to get out. And almost did! But figured I wanted to get even further away! The great thing about Alaska is it has the most land of any state and few people! Sounds like a perfect escape place for you! Take baby steps towards living this kind of life and it will happen. All I needed was for my kids to want to go live their own lives and I was running to Alaska! (yes I told my kids where I am!) 🤣But I did a lot of prepping prior to making the move. Decades of prepping. You can make it happen! 😁
Wow where have you bin all my life lol looks like I found a very good Channel seen your comment on Michael's in Alaska I just started canning again bin a long time and always more to learn hope see watch all your Videos take care and keep up the good work you are living every 1s Dream 😁😁
HA! I knew I had seen your picture before! Mitchells in Alaska! Welcome to the channel! I think you found a very good channel too! 🤣So many ways to preserve food and always good to know them all! 🤔 I saw that you have a channel as well and I plan to check it out! Nacho is adorable! And your girlfriend is a turkey huh?! 😜 I love it here in Alaska and I am glad you will be joining me on this crazy journey! Thank you so much! 😁
Thanks!
That's some good eating there.
I hope to raise chickens for pickled eggs.
I have never been one to like pickled eggs. I have to limit how many eggs I eat anyway. I get somewhat ill when I eat eggs. Doesn't stop me though. But If I am going to risk getting ill, I will eat the eggs over easy! They don't bother me in baking though. But pickled eggs can store for years! Or decades as I cant eat them 🤣 BUT they are very tasty if pickled correctly. Obviously 🙄Thank you Robert!
Guinness is the best beer ever I love a ribeye instead of french fries let me just get a baked potato
LOL! As long as potatoes are included that's a good meal! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska YES ma'am..
I’m enjoying your videos, I’m watching from the beginning but skipped ahead here. As far as baking goes, I can’t believe you don’t bake your own bread.. there are so many easy ways of bread baking. The no knead method is all by far the easiest and best bread there is. You could even make bread in a cast iron skillet on top of the stove. Where do you bake your zucchini bread? You have a wood stove, just place any yeast dough somewhat near the stove or even put the bowl with the dough underneath a few blankets to rise. You don’t need a warm cabin to make a yeasted bread loaf that ferments overnight. Look up No Knead Bread, you’ll be shocked at how easy it is. I bake mine in a 9 inch cast iron skillet makes a good size round loaf.
I have made bread and zucchini bread on the wood stove. I just have to get the stove hotter than I like. I feel more comfortable at 60 degrees in the cabin. Basically the stove sometimes isn't even lit. I have not tried "no knead" bread yet but I have a couple TH-cam videos I saved. 🤔Someone mentioned skillet bread too that I want to try. When I have my outdoor kitchen built I will have a brick bread oven in it so I plan to make a lot of bread. But I will definitely try the "no knead" bread and skillet bread! Thank you for the reminder! This is why I need viewers to comment! Love it! 😁
I have the fermenting kit but I haven't used it yet. I haven't used daikon either so I'm going to try this! Your pantry looks great 👍 Take care
Careful Brenda! Once I learned how to make this, I crave it almost as much as caramels when its all gone! 🤣 But it is nice to have a fully stocked pantry again! Sometimes I just stand there and look at it grinning! 😁 Ahhh the little things!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska haha if caramels are right up there with fermented carrots and daikon, I am definitely going to make it! Thank you for sharing this. Enjoy your week-end🌱🥀🌱
@@brendakilberg5727 And you have an awesome weekend too Brenda! 😁
Daikon is also great sliced thin and added to beefy soup. Very mild tasting. Koreans use it a lot
