    Lonnie? You just blew my mind with parched corn info. & I just got done watching Mr. Townsend & son’s videos on the subject & didn’t think there was anything left to learn. 👍🏼

    I love your vids ! Keep em coming .. Because of your hammock video I was inspired to build my own ,then used your canvas tent idea with the marbles for my tarp/tent shelter.now I gotta go find some corn and give it a try. I appreciate you passing on your knowledge. Thanks from Penticton British Columbia Canada.

    One of the benefits of parching corn on a bed of coals is that the kernels will get a coating of ash. This should be shaken loose, but some will always remain, and that's actually a great thing. That tiny bit of ash will mix with the water when you're rehydrating the parched corn to cook & eat it, and that in turn will make more of the proteins in the corn biologically available for digestion & nutrition. You only want a small amount of ash though, or it'll be too alkaline for comfort, so winnowing (air-sifting) the ember-parched corn is usually a good idea.

      campfire ash can also be used in place of baking soda in recipes roughly in a 4 to one substitution. In other words if one teaspoon of soda is required then that soda can be substituted with 4 teaspoons of ash.

    I was stunned when I saw your hot-air popper. That model has been sitting, unused, in my kitchen for years! Bought two pounds of dried pinole corn (a white dented whole kernel) at our local Winco's bulk products dept. for $0.77 per pound! Ran 'em all through the popper with each batch taking about 1-2 minutes for a golden brownish color. (I pulled off the "tower" and just covered the stack with a strainer in case they tried to jump out. Can't see squat with the tower on) Used a flashlight to keep tabs on the color. That popper works great! After cooling to room temperature, I ground the resultant parched corn up using your style of coffee grinder and, wow, took about 45 seconds per batch. So, I had a third of a cup with cold water and abt two tsp of brown sugar at lunchtime for my total meal (ever chew on sand?). Tasted like, sweet, but "nutty". Not unpleasant. That evening for dinner I had 1/3 cup cold with water and a dose of real maple syrup. Still gritty, but not as tassty as with the brown sugar. This morning I had it cooked (5 min) with seventy grams of thawed blueberrries and a little sugar. Pretty good! I'm still going, alive, feeling no pain and (apparently) with no ill effects. I'm storing it in a muslin belt bag. So I've got at least a weeks worth of food if necessary for only $ 1.54 !!!! 51 batches to go! (Just kidding!!!) Cheers all!

    Great video.. I haven't had homemade Pinole in over 30 years when my grandmother made it for us my paternal grandmother in Rural Mexico and our adopted abuelita who was like a big sister to father's mom also made it for us in Baja.I will add it to my hunting bag rations, I like this idea since its a food I grew up with and I also love cornmeal mush.

  • @hmanseau476
    @hmanseau476 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The Dried corn on Amazon was probably John Copes corn, a PA Dutch favorite you soak it in milk add eggs and bake. Usually served at Thanksgiving. I have made my own on top of our wood stove you need to keep it up off the surface and stir often. It gets a nutty flavor. Loved the video as this Indian Staple is written about in The 1800s book " Early New England Colonial Life" which is an excellent source of old ways knowledge!

      You can also add some Brown sugar to it and some cinnamon and eat it like Cream of Wheat. I grew up on this as well and I eat it 3 times a week or more. Though I have learned you need to use a bit more water when making it as it keeps it from lumping up.

    • @theoldspamcan7347
      @theoldspamcan7347 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I eat grits w/cheese or butter 'n salt(tastes like corn on the cob!) I'd heard about 'em reading novels as a teenager. Then, while hitchhiking one day in the '60s, I was in need of breakfast in Maine one morning and saw them on the menu! Well, I couldn't resist trying 'em and been eatin' 'em ever since. And I'm a "displaced" Connecticut Yankee living in Utah!

  • @jasonmashburn1280
    @jasonmashburn1280 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    My Grandmother used to dry corn on screens in the yard and when it was time to cook it for dinner she put it in a pan with milk on the back of the wood stove and I remember it was delicious.. What is the difference between parched and dried? Wondering if you could get the same results using a food dehydrator? Interesting video!!

Any sources in the Valley or Anchorage or did you Amazon it? Thanks! Rush (I said hello to you and your wife during your Chinese meal in Wasilla a while back).

      Thanks for introducing yourself. I enjoy meeting those who watch my videos. Many viewers of my videos feel like they kind of know me, in a way, since they see me so often in the videos but I don't generally have that connection. I am able to experience that connection only when someone like you comes up to me when we are in town and introduces themselves. *Then* I get to meet you folks.
      You can get the corn from Margaret Loew @ "*Wholy Living*". Look on the web for "Wholy Living" you will see the directions there for getting to her place of business back of Palmer, Alaska While you are there, you and / or your wife (if you are married) just might be interested in looking over many of her other products she carries.

    Wow, that air popper is a great labor saver, all right.....It occurred to me that you could get feed corn from the feed store too. It should be perfect..... Another thing, using nixtmalized corn would be even better. It would take longer to prepare, but be more nutritious.

  • @grandmasherry3914
    @grandmasherry3914 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you parch all of your corn when you get it, or wait until you have a need? Before you got your hot air popper, when you parched corn in a pan, did it pop like the hot air popper or just turn brown? Does corn last longer parched? Do you have a video of you parching corn in a pan? Do you think any old hot air popper will do, or should I look for the unit you have? I have a Presto Stirring popper that has a stirring arm but I think it may be too hot for parching corn. What about microwave popping, have you tried that for parching? Have you tried Blue corn?

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Corn should parch just fine in your stove top presto stirring popcorn pot if used on a low heat and cooked slowly. Corn will parch fine in a stove top pan as long as it is on a low heat and is moved/stirred constantly. I parch my corn as I need it a few batches at a time. I have only used my side air inlets type hot air popcorn popper for parching the corn but I am guessing that any hot air popper should work fairly well. I would guess that the corn would last long in it's raw but dry state rather than parched though parched corn will last a long time. I think I heard that king Tut had viable corn kernels in his tomb that actually grew corn after it was found. I personally do not like cooking in a microwave any more than I have to.

    Ah, yes. Pinol or pinole depending on where you live in Latin America. It's real common down there as a drink and an ingredient in certain special occasion foods. Where I'm from, it's mixed with different peppers, spices and with cacao beans to make the national drink. We make a soup too with chicken in pinol.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      nancejo It would not be quite the same thing. When parching the whole kernel, the kernel "puffs" or "swells" somewhat giving the end product a different texture. Now in all reality I'm not sure if the difference would be noticeable. It may or may not.

    @kingsvillet 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    our "people of the light feet" i believe this the translation, that is the natives of northern mexico use to eat pinole mixed with grounded cinnamon and sugar, you should taste it, is the most exquisite dessert, but they use white corn. Its fiber high and if you use sugar substitute is diabetic friendly, and you can make atole just adding hot milk and chocolate.

    Hi ya Lonnie! Thank u for providing the links on where I can get the corn, I checked them out, Azure delivers to Oklahoma City. Questions; u said u have bought 20 lbs, how did u store it/and how long do u think it will store?? I might have a problem with storing because I don’t run heat/air, it gets hot here, got a suggestion? Was ur cereal crunchy or soft??? Guess what, went to visit my son Sunday, showed him picture of the mora robust from the link u’d sent me before and had him order it!!! Can’t wait to have it n my hand!!! I truly appreciate all the help u’ve given me Lonnie, u have nooo idea what it means to me. Thank u much

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We have had the corn we have now for years and it is still fine as Connie just used some a couple weeks ago to make some tortillas for tacos. We keep it in a cool location which is an unheated room on or near the floor. If it is warm there and / or humid, then it would probably be best to place the corn in a food grade sealed container if you are going to store it for a long time. I have found free food grade plastic buckets from bakeries before as that is how they get their apple, cherry etc fillings for their pastries. Also it would not hurt to place an oxygen absorber in the bucket of grain before you seal it if you are going to not be using it for a long time. I have seen where some folks use the disposable hand warmers as food safe oxygen absorbers but you may want to research that since i have never personally tried that.
      The cereal is soft with firmer textured pieces of corn that do not get ground up completely. So I guess I would say that it is a combination of soft as well as firm.
      I'm glad that you find the information on my videos helpful for you. I appreciate you watching the videos.

  • @dexterquincy1

    Ok, a couple of questions. Is this not basically corn meal and if you are trying to remove the moisture from the corn couldnt you use a dehydrater.

    • @theoldspamcan7347
      @theoldspamcan7347 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No. Not cornmeal. And well, yes with the drier, I suppose, but will not be as time effiecient. The hot-air popper takes me about 1-2 minutes per 1/3 cup of kernels and I have precise control over the process.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Corn meal available in many places has a portion of the corn removed and is not simply just ground whole kernal corn. By using a hot air popcorn maker, a person is roasting or "parching" the corn. A dehydrator would only be able to attempt to dry the already dry corn. Not the same process at all.

  • @DefMunkyYT
    @DefMunkyYT 10 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @karenchakey

    Oh I was just asking if you could store it right after you "toasted" it in the air popper and eat it in that state too if you wanted to with out "powdering" it up.

    • @winfieldjohnson125
      @winfieldjohnson125 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Short answer; Yes. The early settlers(longhunters.etc.) learned from the Indians that parched corn was almost a perfect trail food. You would prepare it like Lonnie does in your own home. On the trail, you carried the parched kernals if you couldn't get it ground.... If circumstances were such that you didn't have the luxury of a chance to cook, you could just eat the kernals out of hand.

      Don't over cook the barley and wheat though. Makes a "Depression era" coffee substitute. My grandmother said she preferred hers to Store bought Folgers - but she'd never make it for me to try.

    Can you do this with canned, or frozen corn that you have dehydrated yourself in a food dehydrator?

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Peter Hunt I don't think dehydrated canned or frozen corn would work quite the same since both have been mechanically cut off the cob. The dried corn that I show was taken off the cob still whole and complete with out the corn/cob connection cut off. In other words. Frozen or canned corn kernels have their ends cut off whereas the bulk dried corn like I show in this video still is the complete whole kernel. When heating the kind of kernel that I show in the video, the kernels pop similar to "popcorn" but not as aggressively. The corn kernels you are talking about I believe would be unable to pop since the ends have been cut off and the heat buildup would escape out the cut end instead of building up internally until it explodes (pops).

      Thanks for getting back to me. Where do you buy your corn? Any suggestions for companies where I can buy online? I live in Washington, DC, (District of Criminals) No mills here

      Peter Hunt We get our bulk corn from a local business called "Wholy Living". This probably would not be practical for you but there is a food coop that is nation wide I think that may or may not work for you. It is called "Azure Standard". www.azurestandard.com/ Some of our neighbors are members of Azure and order regularly.

    Hey, I enjoyed your video doing this the modern way which was good.
    Why don't you store it in a mason jar. You could oven can it after you grind it and it would last a lot longer. I would think that you could store it for years after oven caning it.

    Could this be done in a microwave?

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I personally would not do it in a microwave though I do not know if it would work. The reason I would not use a MW is that they kill enzymes or something in the food if I understand correctly. I would personally rather do it an old fashioned way and know that I have all of the available nutrition.

    Hi hope all is well. Is whole sweet corn, same as field corn? Looks like field corn you called it whole sweet corn. Why the cloth bag, better than plastic? When I make mine will boil it in chaga tea. You should try adding some of your birch sap! Thanks to your wife , well done.

  • @joybickerstaff194

    Hi ya Lonnie! This looks interesting, I’ll have to try it, it’s something to have around in hard times or emergencies. I once read or watched something, I think it pertained to fresh corn, a study was done with two groups of people, one ate only corn, the other ate corn with other foods, the one that ate only corn developed an illness or disease, have u heard of it? I hear people use feed corn, thought of buying that n past to make other food, I knew it would need cleaning before consuming. This past winter we sold deer corn, triple clean bag said, really wanted to buy it but...still Leary, what’s ur opinion on feed corn? Chaga tea must be good, u got a whole pot going there, wished it grew here, I’d love to try it. High to Connie. Thank u

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I really do not know about feed corn so I can not comment on that. We get our corn from a small wholesome bulk foods retailer called "Wholy Living". I do not know how national Wholy Living would be since it is based in Alaska . Another similar type business that is, I believe, nation wide is "Azure Standard". We have not personally dealt with Azure Standard but have neighbors who have and as far as we know, they are happy.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +michael yahuwah I don't really know but I would guess that if it was vacuum sealed in mylar that it probably would keep longer. I believe though that it would be much better and healthier (more nutrients) to store it in the complete kernel and only parch and grind small batches as you use them.

      +Brayden Heath It really boils down to how it was raised and handled in my opinion. If it is safe for human consumption then I would say it should be fine to use then.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Apparently the popped corn was just too light and fluffy for the model of air popper that you used. It should not pop like popcorn

    • @57WillysCJ
      @57WillysCJ 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. I have used the skillet method and just corn meal flour. At least blue corn meal flour. I just took and ground the rest of it.

  • @Joe_Goofball
    @Joe_Goofball 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Feedstores carry it. The superheated air of the popper should sterilize it, if such should be needed. If a few kernels looks nasty, discard them (you can always give it to the chickens).

    grits are made of ground corn.like mine with butter an pepper and three un popped eggs, bacon an toast, set for the day! make (real thick) dry with with a fat tablespoon of flour,pat into a cake an fry in bacon fat (can add onions,berries, whatnot to suit taste) taste pretty good also, or a mush with brown sugar or honey, kids like this alot. an last isnt bannock just grounded corn?

  • @muddog1561

    Why not cut a couple of steps out and use yellow corn grits? I throw some yellow corn grits in a fry pan with a little oil.

    • @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival
      @Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      muddog1561 Well the reason why I don't do it your way is that I prefer to do my own processing from corn that we personally choose. I prefer to be more self sufficient. Putting grits in the skillet like you do, does sound good though.

    • @muddog1561
      @muddog1561 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1
