You need a trivet, or cooling rack type thing over your heat so you can take your pan to the outside edge to get a bit of indirect heat. Good luck with your outdoor cooking.

    As someone who is also growing tired of city life, I yearn to leave it all behind and reinvigorate myself with the countryside. 🌿 The feeling you get when your seeds sprout from the soil, the anticipation and happiness that rises in your heart when you finally get to harvest the fruits (and veggies) of your labor cannot compare to anything else (in my opinion😄)!
    Living in the countryside is not easy by any means, but it is incredibly rewarding. One day I'll leave the city and live the way I was always supposed to.
    Until then, I wish you endless joy and good fortune Gaz. Thank you for sharing another marvelous video! Cheers to countryside living and to a new chapter in your life! 🥂

      U r so right. I had to live in the city again briefly 5 years after losing home and family in a fire. Suffered PTSD symptoms. That never happens here in the healing northwoods.
      Even tho I am in a shed under the radar sans plumbing I couldn't be happier with my home. Rehabbing a mobile home here. Then the shed will be my art studio!
      The most healing thing was adopting 2 feline daughters. Littermates.
      I'm gardening organically and will expand when I get a well. I do some rain capture and haul a lot of jugs. As a 67 yr old gimp with a bum heart it ain't as but i wouldn't trade it. I am often moved to tears of gratitude.

    "Never cook kale to long."
    Here in northern germany, kale is a very traditionel meal. You cool them for one hour or mabye two. Once i've cooked my Version for more than 3 hours. In this Version you cook them with ham and a sausage called "Bregenwurst" or "Pinkel". Served with cooked potatos and mustard. It is so famouse, that it is a tradition to go on a walking tour and after this you go to a Rerstaunt and eat kale in disproportionately large quantities. The name of this happening called "Braunkohlwanderung".
    Since i turned vegan i made my own Version with vegan sausages and potatos.

      As a fellow person from northern Germany, I second that. Cooking kale for hours is normal for us and very traditional. Fun fact, I recently found out why in some parts of northern Germany its calles Braunkohl (brown kale) and in othe Grünkohl (green kale). It was actually different kale that was used historically, that looked different after being cooked (brown or green). For years I thought its both the same and maybe it was just cooked a bit different, depending on the region.

    • @diannej2406
      @diannej2406 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      American here but my mother was from northern Germany. She'd make this dish too. The potatoes would be seasoned with sugar and salt and fried in butter. That and the fatty "Pinkel" would undo any health benefits from the kale. But it sure was tasty. Haven't eaten that in probably 30+ years.
