It's nice to see the processes of the type of stuff you've been posting on Facebook over the years. It helps me remember that just because it looks fancy, the processes usually aren't as daunting compared to jist seeing the final product. You really seem to enjoy making the videos, just make sure you dont feel like you have to make them. I'd hate for you to burn out on something you enjoy because it starts to feel like a chore. My only recommendation for your videos would be to normalize your audio levels. The intro music is probably the loudest part (easily twice the volume of the rest) and the recipe intro is still kind of loud compared your voice during cooking. I don't know what software youre using, but there should be an audio meter somewhere in it you can use to adjust your levels. Your vocal audio during cooking is kind of airy, so I dont know how well bringing up that audio level would turn out. Maybe a cheap mic to connect to your camera, or maybe something bluetooth if you're using your phone would work.
Thanks! I'm still learning some of this and have just figured out how to modify the audio on the individual segments in the editor I use. Hopefully it will be better in future videos and would love to hear your feedback on the next/future ones. As far as burning out, I wanted to just really jump into this and figure out the stuff like what you mentioned so I've done a bunch of videos. I will likely reduce the frequency to a few posts a week in the future haha but so far I actually just find making and editing these videos fun as well
were the beans fresh or frozen? I'm not sure that I can get butter or lima beans up north here. I've grown fava beans myself but they are different, I think, not sure.
The beans were frozen. Sadly I couldn't find any fresh butter/baby lima beans either but it honestly didn't hurt the dish quality. The main thing is getting fresh corn IMO
I wish you success. I love "simple" dishes. I will be trying this.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy it
My mother made this for my family when I was a kid. She uses clarified bacon grease instead of butter. Such a tasty dish!
Yep! Any tasty fat/oil that doesn't burn should work well for this dish! Pork lard or beef fat would probably taste great too

@@cookbookmonkey If it is not too much trouble, adding a list and the amount of ingredients would be helpful.
@@angfast5647 indeed. I think I will start adding a text ingredient list to the intros. Thanks!

@@cookbookmonkey Thats good news for me. I might be able to find frozen and fresh corn season is almost upon us up here.
