It's wonderful to hear from so many of you that Mrs Crocombe is providing a source of strength and solidarity in these difficult times. Stay safe everyone - thank you for watching and for your generous support. Below you'll find some answers to questions you might have about this particular recipe. If you try making Saffron Buns for yourself, don’t forget to share the pictures with us! WHERE IS MRS CROCOMBE FROM? Mrs Crocombe was born in Martinhoe in Devon and worked there as a teenager, eventually moving to London. Saffron was grown in Cornwall and Devon from the fourteenth century and was being grown around Walden - renamed Saffron Walden - in the seventeenth century. The Audley End estate borders Saffron Walden and it is the nearest town to the house. CAN I USE FRESH YEAST? Yes, you can. 4g (or 1 good tsp) of dried yeast is roughly equivalent to 10g (or just over 1/3 oz) of what we now call fresh yeast. Mrs Crocombe would have known it as German or compressed yeast. Whatever yeast you choose, it is worth mixing it with the warm milk to get it started. Be careful not to overheat the milk though. DO I HAVE TO USE LARD? If you have lard, it is the best fat to use, for it gives a real softness to the dough. However, you can substitute butter or vegetable shortening. WHAT IS MACE? It is the outer skin of nutmeg and was very popular as a spice in the Victorian era. It is quite a savoury spice, and if you are not used to it, we'd advise going easy on it. CAN I USE OTHER FRUIT? Of course - currants are traditional, but you can use whatever you have. WHAT IS THAT METAL SHAKER? A flour dredger. All Victorian houses would have had one (or more), for flour, sugar and anything else they needed to sift onto things . WHY WASN’T LENT OBSERVED? The Lenten fast was very much a personal thing but had been in decline in the UK since the Reformation. Some people still observed the Catholic tradition of four weeks of fish and no animal products, but most did not. There were, however, some foods associated with Easter itself: saffron buns were golden and, like cross buns (often called hot cross buns, even when eaten cold), they contained things like eggs and lard which were frowned upon during Lent. Lamb was also popular on Easter Sunday, for it was a rich person's dish (mutton was more usual), and linked to the idea of Jesus as the Lamb of God. Eggs were also associated with Easter for they symbolised new life.
What are the 6 spices in the box? Clockwise, I think I identify cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper(?), cloves, but the net-ty thingies and the pale powder I can't quite place!
Why did she work inside a bottomless box? Were all spices kept in those round divided containers? How was fish shipped to inland England during lent? Did that make it expensive?
You haven’t lived until you’ve gotten the butter video in your recommended and then fell down a rabbit hole at 2 am watching every “The Victorian Way” video and now you speak in a British Accent and you stan Mrs.Crocombe
Kneeding dough I take the Fanny Cradock method - Think of someone you don't like, but you are too well bread to tell them what you think of them, and take it out on the dough.
@@owlislike oh! It'd create a different texture but imagine how golden the center would be with cornmeal. And I do believe the Victorians were masters of "making do."
Yes Mrs Crocombe provides a bright spot in all this unpleasantness. Trying to find something new to make for Easter. That isn't chocolate related is a pain in the butt!
Same. I didn`t think we`d get any more until the end of the year. I`m hoping they filmed a few at one go a couple of months ago and will release them in due course; that would be something to look forward to.
Mrs Crocombe might be the only person who can call me poor, cheap or regularly throw shade at me and can never make me mad. In fact, it makes me love her even more. I just hang my peasant head down in shame as she calls me out and my only response is, ''yes, ma'am, you said it. I know, I know... you're right. You can see right through me.''
The character of Avis Crocombe as inhabited and interpreted by Kathy Hipperson is orders of magnitude beyond delightful! I'm in constant anticipation of these extremely entertaining episodes, and hope they continue indefinitely.
Mrs. Crocombe has the best “Teacher Face” when she says, “use your judgement.” Suddenly I have found late homework from second grade that I will do right away!
Dear Mrs. Crocrombe, As a historical fiction writer, I find your videos very helpful indeed. A character in my novel was JUST making buns like these. I was quite excited to see EXACTLY how she might have done it. While she's not my main character, I now feel like I could add a better explanation of how she did it should the others ask her! Thank you!
Sweet Baby Jesus! My quarantine prayers have been answered!!! Bless you Mrs. Crocombe for reminding me I have bad judgment and am too poor to afford saffron.
It’s like coming home and watching your mom cook your favorite meal in the kitchen while you are wrapped in a blanket of sunshine and puff pastry. Mrs. Crocombe is a national treasure and I will die on that hill
I just wanted to say I absolutely love watching these cooking videos. I found them back in December the morning of my surgery to have my entire large intestine removed due to ulcers. I was terrified being only 19 and going through a major surgery. These videos calmed me down right up until it was time for me to hand my phone to a nurse. I don’t know why TH-cam recommended the channel but I’m so glad they did! So thank you for all you do and I hope you continue to make more videos
I swear my hubby thought I was having a fit the way I let out a squeal of delight when this notification popped up. Thank you again English Heritage and Mrs. Crocombe for putting a smile on my face and a new recipe in my kitchen. Take care all of you.
I am so glad you squealed with delight. People don't squeal with delight anymore as it is a tradition that has long been lost but deserves to come back!!!
This channel and this segment deserve all the likes for all the work, the interpretation of Kathy Hipperson @HistoricalHippo , the neatness of the video and above all the fidelity and creativity
Straight Razor Daddy a 25lb bag is a waste if some barely uses flour, and not everyone has space for a 25lb sack of flour. Get off your high horse. Besides, in terms of emergency preparedness, dried grains and legumes are much better to have as they’re more calorie dense and have a good balance of protein and carbs. Better fill your larder with dried legumes and grains, as well as tinned fresh produce.
I didn't even know saffron was grown in the UK. I thought it was a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern plant. I'm sure it tastes as delicious as it looks. Thank you Mrs. Crocombe.
The servants' dresses are so nice and elaborate! This is such a cozy video :) I love the egg case/suitcase/carrying thing on the title screen! Please stay safe everyone :D

Below you'll find some answers to questions you might have about this particular recipe. If you try making Saffron Buns for yourself, don’t forget to share the pictures with us!
WHERE IS MRS CROCOMBE FROM?
Mrs Crocombe was born in Martinhoe in Devon and worked there as a teenager, eventually moving to London. Saffron was grown in Cornwall and Devon from the fourteenth century and was being grown around Walden - renamed Saffron Walden - in the seventeenth century. The Audley End estate borders Saffron Walden and it is the nearest town to the house.

Whatever yeast you choose, it is worth mixing it with the warm milk to get it started. Be careful not to overheat the milk though.
DO I HAVE TO USE LARD?
If you have lard, it is the best fat to use, for it gives a real softness to the dough. However, you can substitute butter or vegetable shortening.
WHAT IS MACE?
It is the outer skin of nutmeg and was very popular as a spice in the Victorian era. It is quite a savoury spice, and if you are not used to it, we'd advise going easy on it.
CAN I USE OTHER FRUIT?
Of course - currants are traditional, but you can use whatever you have.
WHAT IS THAT METAL SHAKER?
A flour dredger. All Victorian houses would have had one (or more), for flour, sugar and anything else they needed to sift onto things
.
WHY WASN’T LENT OBSERVED?
The Lenten fast was very much a personal thing but had been in decline in the UK since the Reformation.

English Heritage what is the name of the theme that plays at the beginning
Thank you for the additional information and advice! I really love your historical cooking lessons. So interesting! 🍞🥧😋👍
What are the 6 spices in the box? Clockwise, I think I identify cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper(?), cloves, but the net-ty thingies and the pale powder I can't quite place!
@@AdA-eb2bt cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper, cloves, mace (see description above), powdered ginger.
Why did she work inside a bottomless box? Were all spices kept in those round divided containers? How was fish shipped to inland England during lent? Did that make it expensive?
Her lips say: "You will need to use your judgement"
Her eyes say: "I already know you have none."
Mrs. Crocombe is hardass dude.
Hahaha
in other words - proof it for 2 to 3 hours. No judgements.
It is like there is no bullshitting her cuz she will see right through your bullshit. Nothing withstands the glare of Ms Crocombe!!!
😂😂😂😂😉😉😉😉
Her pinch of salt had the “shot of vodka” vibe
I loved your comment!! It made laugh so much. Thanks I needed that. I wish you and yours well.
Yeeees!!!!
Wait till you see the salt on the Turbot fish 🤣🤣🤣
I was coming down to the comments to make that exact comment.
Elizabeth Zumwalt I literally was think that 😂
Mrs. Crocombe: "You will need to use your judgment"
Me: *sighs* that's another ingredient I don't have.

This is so true lololol
lmao
Bro how did you know
The story of my life lol
Same
The 1 dislike is from one of the kitchen maids she tasked with kneading the dough for 20 minutes.
Which clearly didn´t happen. That was NOT a smooth dough.
ahahahha yes
Kneeding dough I take the Fanny Cradock method - Think of someone you don't like, but you are too well bread to tell them what you think of them, and take it out on the dough.

@@isabellesmith3314 best comment ever😂😂💐
Mrs. Crocombe: You will need to use your judgement.
Me: *sweats profusely*
I literally muttered "shit" under my breath when she said that
I'm not exactly sure why, but being judged by this woman, makes me deliriously happy.
If my last 3 girlfriends are to judge by...my judgement is no good.
When the flour and yeast are harder to get than saffron....
Thats true..
Lol
Don't forget the eggs..
The only "flour" on the shelves where I am is corn meal.
@@owlislike oh! It'd create a different texture but imagine how golden the center would be with cornmeal. And I do believe the Victorians were masters of "making do."
Does anyone else enjoy the way she says "For This Recipe, You Will Need..."?
I like very much, such cool accent!!! sounds classy and she knows how to do things!! ahahaha
Yes and also how she says butter lol.
I want that as a ringtone
David Walter yes yes😊
It's her trademark hahahaha.
I can't tell if Mrs. Crocombe was sad, angry or scandalized that Lent wasn't all that observed anymore.
A guy here No papists allowed.
Happy it is still proper to serve them, even though Lent isn't as strictly observed.
Who said it wasn't? No discrimination against papists.
She seemed none of those things. She seemed well happy about it
Pfft, more like sharing a sneaky secret.
I guess Mrs. Crocombe is an essential employee
Emma Leslie, do you doubt it?
It’s true. She’s my Emotional Support Shade
Lord's and lady's probably can't feed themselves so I'd say yes
Without a doubt. We all need some Crocombe in our lives.
The most essential
"Best served hot, slathered in butter." is now my answer to all of life's problems!
Honestly, I’m thinking “What isn’t?!”
Unless you've a baking kitchen, I'm not interested
Lard AND butter? Mrs. Crocombe ain’t messing around!
And a pinch...
[ waits for salt to pour ]
[ still waiting ]
of salt.
When we celebrate, we celebrate! ;-)
I think I heard a scream of horror coming from my bottle of Lipitor.
Serving size is one small bun, not the whole batch. I think we can manage that. ;-)
@@thekingsdaughter4233 I might, but what about people who decide to have a serving with each meal?
Mrs. Crocombe's Mouth: You will need to use your judgment.
Mrs. Crocombe's Eyes: I have serious doubts about your judgment.
YESSS SHES BACKKKK !!! this is literally what I needed for quarantine
Yessss...same here
Yes Mrs Crocombe provides a bright spot in all this unpleasantness. Trying to find something new to make for Easter. That isn't chocolate related is a pain in the butt!

Love this.
Yes I look forward to these videos 😍
Me too 😊
I adore it!❤ Was so happy to see the notification pop up! Woo hoo!💐💕🎉
@Jennie In Michigan Townsend is more mid to late 1700s. This channel focuses on the Victorian era, 1830s to late 1890s.
The character of Avis Crocombe as inhabited and interpreted by Kathy Hipperson is orders of magnitude beyond delightful! I'm in constant anticipation of these extremely entertaining episodes, and hope they continue indefinitely.
When Mrs. Crocombe tells me I need to use my judgement, and looks over her glasses at me, I feel that she's judging me and finding me wanting.
The look says to me: “Good luck finding some.”
We are so unworthy of that task . Her look says she is well aware of that and she instantly regrets her words....
@Straight Razor Daddy no comment; )
You're not alone. That look and that judgment are for us all.
@Straight Razor Daddy Of course she is. If she weren't I wouldn't feel so put on blast.
“And now I’m going to shake the buns”....wiser words have never been spoken
😂😂😂 Shape the buns. I died. 😂

Saffron is the only Christmas gift that has ever made my mom jump up and down with joy.
My mom could be murderously protective of her little packet of saffron.
It kills me to pay $7 for what amounts to a tiny pinch of saffron but you can’t make Garbanzo bean soup without it.
@@SandraNelson063 it's so expensive, so no wonder
Mrs. Crocombe is what we need during these times 😭😭😭
Keep calm and crocombe on!
Where's her Black Plague mask???
I've been watching for her videos.
I honestly feel at home watching her videos, and I'm asian.
That's really cool!😊👍 Same and I'm Swedish!
I'm a Mexican American Sourtherner and I still feel at home watching this channel.

We should watch uncle Roger instead 😂
The way she says “You need your judgement” with such a judgemental and sarcastic is SUCH A BIG MOOD! GIVE THIS LADY HER CROWN!

Mrs. Crocombe: "You will need to use your judgment"
There was a lot of judgment in those eyes when she said that.
Good you now have plenty to use on your dough
Oh she was definitely using her judgement.
Mrs. Crocombe has the best “Teacher Face” when she says, “use your judgement.” Suddenly I have found late homework from second grade that I will do right away!
I never knew a pinch of salt was the same as a handful of salt.
...Please watch the turbot video😂
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
Kathy admitted that she's not really a cook. Sometimes its pretty apparent.
“Two” shots of vodka.

"a pinch of salt"
*Flash back of salt in turbot fish eye*
That was hilarious!!
I've missed mrs Crocombe judging stare
Because you must use your judgement
somewhere deep down i know this is just historical recreation
but for the most part i'm just *fannie's dad was baker? well damn that's lucky*
Saffron buns (usually in fancy shapes and decorated with raisins) are associated with St Lucy’s day in Norway and Sweden.
Or Lucia.. But whatever. We like Lucy too 😁
Anna Collier
I used the English name of the saint to make it easier for English-speakers to look her up.
Nice!
I had no clue who St. Lucy was until I read the comments. We always called it St. Lucia.
It’s like coming home and watching your mom cook your favorite meal in the kitchen while you are wrapped in a blanket of sunshine and puff pastry. Mrs. Crocombe is a national treasure and I will die on that hill
I like "you'll need to use your judgement" as she is totally judging us lol
I just wanted to say I absolutely love watching these cooking videos. I found them back in December the morning of my surgery to have my entire large intestine removed due to ulcers.

Then she gives me that look that says "Except you, you have none."
She's right.
That wasn't directed at you... none of us have any judgement.
Im pretty sure that was more than a pinch of salt. 😂😂😂
That’s an italian pinch of salt
😆😆😆😆
It had the same energy as “two shots of vodka” Lady
Some recipes actually specify the number of fingers to be used for the "pinch" of something. I kid you not. So the amount may very well vary.
IKR. TWO SHOTS OF VODKA...
“A pinch of salt” *throws an entire handful* lol gotta love Mrs. Crocombe
I want Fannie's bread.
No sense having a stroke, or dying of thirst, from all that extra salt.

My mom and I jumped to the chance of watching this new episode!
Ms. Crocombe is just what the world needs right now!
Keep up the lovely work.
just made this recipe. i had to sub some bit due to shortages. I used margarine instead of butter and orange rind instead of lemon. also had no saffron (surprise, surprise) so just used all spice instead.
They are absolutely gorgeous!! Thank Mrs Crocombe...you are a legend!
The Queen is back! Finally something more interesting that school work xD
Honestly this channel could make a description of a garbage can sound wonderful. I just love these videos ❤️
I looped 2,000 times where Mrs Crocombe introduced butteR and laRd.
These ingredients are just so satisfying when eaten or heard
My favourite episode? I would have to say the pancake episode! that was my gateway episode in knowing Mrs. Crocombe and Audley End.
But the episodes from the laundry, apple orchard and the dairy were all my favourites as they show us a glimpse of how the whole house operates as well as their lives during the Victorian Times.
Thank you very much for all of these wonderful videos, and I hope you all stay safe!
