We pressed our own Rapeseed Oil!

- This is a video featuring how rapeseed oil is made, here in rural China. In my husband's hometown, a village in Qinghai province, most people grow their own rapeseed flowers and are self-sustainable when it comes to vegetable oil and wheat flour. This is something I previously imagined being very difficult, I always imagined being self-sustainable in vegetables was easy, but wheat and oil? I did not imagine how it could work. But it does! The community, and access to mills targeting household farms, is the key.
Exactly how the oil is made, you can see in the video. Take care, and thanks for watching!

Did you know how rapeseed oil was made before? I had never seen it!
luv you.
Miriam .... you must have been a Chinese in your previous life ! You’ve adapted better than some overseas Chinese.

我記得我看過 就找出來給妳了！
我妈每年都会买菜籽拿去榨油，然后买肥猪肉熬油。两样都准备，几十年都是这样过来的。另外，榨菜籽油剩下的残渣我们这里叫油枯。
So nice to watch!! 😊
It doesn't get any more authentic and wholesome than that !!!
You're building a personal library of exquisite moments in China that have never been seen by the west before. I'm just happy that I get to be here to see them.
People who look down their noses at the Chinese People are *exceedingly* foolish.
Absolutely. The chinese ppl are unique and very intelligent. Most things comes from china. E. G. Cloths, writing, noodle, gun powder etc.
Miriam, you have got a very beautiful life. And I am very glad that I am seeing you happy everyday 😊😊😊
OMG，it is a video? It looks like a amazing short movie.
The Chinese as a society, have so much collective info,
We are so far behind ,it aches ,I'm. Green with envy.
LOVE FROM MEXICO
Your husband is naturally cute and funny. I like watching his antics.
Quite a Humble husband that you’ve got there, Miriam.
Miriam is also very self confident person. Good on them both🙋
This is not just a oil story but a wonderful love story 😀
Work together and growth together. Long live sister.
really high quality video! Your husband is so cute
big fan of yours, keep posting ：）
Thank you so much!
The older man that built the press was so cool and interesting. I bet he has a lot of great stories.
Wow,this was so nice. It's actually just the same procedure as with olive oil. I live in Greece and many families on the island I live on have their own olive trees and harvest in December to make oil. Exactly as for you, families take the collected olives (people here collect by hand) to the local oil mill and the oil is used during the year to come. You should make documentaries,your videos are great!
very interesting!! are the olives also steamed before being pressed?
以前经常听到菜籽油，到处都能看到油菜花，却第一次看到从菜籽到油的过程，太棒了，谢谢你! 真的像看电影一样。
Miriam, your husband is an innocent man. You both are lucky to have each others 👍👍👍
Love your videos. Just amazing editing on your part.
Thank you so much!
Thank for this video. Very interesting. I live in California and would never see this if it wasn’t for videos like this.
農村老作坊，令人感覺好溫暖。
Hi Miriam! I know how does it smell. You are literally awakening my childhood. I born and grew up in Qinghai. I went to mill to buy the rapeseeds oil with my family but never get to know how it is processed. I appreciate your video! It’s been four years I didn’t go back home for studying abroad and work, miss everything there! I love your philosophy of life and your video is as peaceful as you! I hope one day I can pay a visit to you and your family in Qinghai where is also my home!
Wow, that's quite an interesting process! Something I have never seen before.
Someone said you are creating a library of unique moments and I completely agree. Pratices like this will slowly disappear and it's so valuable you are documenting this!
我们小时候也是吃莱籽油長大的，是最好吃的油了。長辈们去油坊里柞油，但是自巳从来没有亲眼见证过，谢谢你们的上传，还有听到我们的青海话感觉到很亲切。从今天的健康角度来说莱籽油是 很有利于健康，因为含有很高的omga3。
Watching Miriam's video, I miss my hometown, my childhood.
wow nice to see the traditional way to make rapeseed oil
Your husband is a cute, lovely and handsome guy. His voice is slow and soft,. Very nice and authentic person!
Love your videos Miriam...Your husband always seems so cheerful and a hardworker, as well as proactive dad. You are both lucky to have found one another. It seems no matter how hard you have worked all your life, that old man has lovely smiley face....you cant fake those wrinkles ;-) Really love your content about rural life in china, especially those around your in laws and food. LOL
I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you for your support! I'm planning to make more cooking videos with my mother-in-law next year!
Everyone should grow and make their own oil. That way there will not be wastage as every drop is made with so much hardwork.
Thank you Miriam, for your movies of real life and personal experience. Godd luck to you and your family.
Thank you so much!
You guys are so sweet together... the way your husband is so concerned about how clearly he speaks for your video is so nice... having a spouse care about the little things is such a blessing. I do love seeing your outings together on your channel... God bless you and your family
听你太爷的话好亲切，让人想家。老油坊，老工艺，老传统。看了让人安逸。
米粒，我是来自江苏农村的，但是你们那边更美，看你榨菜籽油，我就想起了我妈，她每年都种油菜，油菜花开的时候很美
I get so excited everytime I see a notification of your new videos💜 I learn so much and your mischievous husband makes me laugh..such a comedian.
Haha, thank you so much for watching! 💕
That was fascinating. It reminds me of the villages in Italy where they have one press and everyone brings their olives to have them pressed. it's a community event.
That would be wonderful to see!!
这部片拍得好有质感，剪辑也很棒， 有点纪录片的感觉！
It's fascinating to see how much efforts and time a simple thing like oil making takes .
I really enjoy watching video like this. Well done, Miriam!
watching your vedio is like seeing my childhood, everything is just the same old fashion
Did you grow up in rural China, or elsewhere? I hope that I can document as much as possible, I'm afraid that when Sansan is older, some might be lost. But if I document it, he can see it and also understand more about his own family history and his heritage!
@@MiriamFollin yes, I grew up in southwest China, somethings are different from your videos but most are the same. It is a great time now that new things are coming up everyday, but it is also a sad time that many traditional things are fading away. I felt lucky to know many of those from my childhood. I think what you are doing is just great, not only show other people what is the old fashion like, but also pass the knowledge to the next generation like Sansan, from a foreigner's view. Thumbs up!
Thanks for showing us the process of making rapeseed oil. I’ve really enjoyed it and learned so much/
your hubby is so naughty🤣 great video as always 👍
Wow, it’s eye opening to see how the oil is produced, so organic, so pure. Nice!
What a lovely couple like both of U...
🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕
It was so interesting to watch how rapeseed oil is made! Thank you for your hard work filming and editing your videos, they are always such a pleasure to watch :)
Nothing wasted. Thank u for filming this.
Very cool to see! Thank you for sharing. Love your filming style.
Thank you!
We call it Qingyou. I think my hometown is not far from your husband's hometown, because I can understand his dialect.
不是，清油是茶油
@@bakecook8121 青海人把菜籽油叫清油或者青油（青海的油？），哈哈，反正就是叫qingyou。
@@wangxyz 好
这个外国媳妇代啊就，实话啦加地代！
Rapeseed oil is health. Look at your video, I really admire your way of life, natural food, simple and happy life.
Great video! Also Miriam, great video editing skills!😘
I suddenly found Qinghaier's dialect is a little bit like Gansuer's. One of my dormmate is from Gansu.He speaks like the pressing mill holder. 🤔
It is similar! They are very close. I'm actually thinking about making a small video series about the Qinghai dialect!
@@MiriamFollin Please do that! I was so fascinated hearing him speak, I really struggled to understand anything. I realize the Yunnan dialect which I understand is a lot closer to Mandarin.
我开始第一感觉甚至以为是越南语。。。我中部感觉只能听懂个别单词。。
@@rango1693 越南语的发音跟中国古代汉语有些发音很像的
传统的工艺榨出的油，幽香！阿爷的乡音太亲切了！
Dear Miriam, thanks to you and your husband for sharing this experience with us. This process is absolutely fascinating! I'm watching this video at 4am in Canada LOL My husband is also Chinese, and he is VERY impressed with your husband's calligraphy. We watched that video last night. Your mum-in-law is truly a precious gift.:) Adorable son and husband....your family exudes peace and love. thank you once again for sharing with us:) Happy New Year!
Hello!!! I was looking up how this oil was made. Very interesting video!!!
You are so much an inspiring person to move out of the modern Swedish comforzone that most people wish for, just to live your dream life in a peaceful rural village with the man you love. I could feel the dedicated Nordic culture in you, people always love little simple things that bring them true happiness despite of the materialistic world. I'm so grateful to know you through this chanel. Much love to you and your family.
菜籽油榨完的油饼可以用来喂鱼，鱼特别喜欢。
你是说鱼塘养殖的鱼还是家里的观赏鱼呀？
还可以做肥料
Loved this video. So, interesting to see how things are made.
After a long time... wow!
Self-sustaining and sustainable. This is as environmentally friendly as it can be. What a wonderful way of life, to be part of nature.
Very very interesting! Thank you Miriam! Greetings from Uruguay
Wow, I love how people watch from all over the world!
😁😁we speak Spanish here, but as I learnt English I can understand your videos! I love to know more about China and your life there! 😘😘
These are wonderful local, artisan products!
It was a very interesting video. And as always the whole family was participating.
Great video! Remains my childhood time
In America rapeseed oil is called “canola oil”
I never really understood the difference between the two! In Sweden I don't think there's a separation.
I didn’t understand it either, it was explained to me that due to the negative connotation that the word rape had it was felt that the public wouldn’t receive the product well. In turned to was re-named to be more suitable to the public.
Canola oil is a Canadian creation that was developed using rape seeds. Hoping to gain higher and cleaner yields from its creation. Hence why some call it rapeseed oil and some canola oil. Since you are using actual rape seeds and not canola, it's rapeseed oil
Maybe the rapeseeds also are good for facial and body scrub same as what ur husband is demonstrating from the video. Ur very good in your filming arrangement even in simple technicalities. Qualified to be a Documenter.
Thanks for recording all those wonderful things!
I have to say that your video inspired me to plan my trip to Qinghai one day:).
Oh, I'm so happy! That's great to hear!
It is very nice to follow you both so cute! Thank you for your sharing your daily life with your family!Take care !
It's more popularly known as canola in Canada. These are really pretty plants when in bloom!!!
I never really understood the difference between canola and rapeseed... In Swedish it seems to be the same thing! Yes, they are so pretty! There is actually a whole tourism event when they bloom here, people travel to this province just to look at the flowers, and to take pictures in the fields haha.
In this part of Canada where I live (greater Vancouver area), there are no canola growers but in the prairie provinces, canola is their major product. It was only while on a train ride in Munich I saw vast tracts of canola fields and I was blown away! Thanks for showing us how the oil is extracted 💖💖💖 Loving all your videos!!!
@@VeryMerryLou Until Canada decided to kidnap Huawei founder's daughter in transit to attend G20 Summit in Buenos Aires at the same venue Trump and Xi met.
This is why China doesn't need to buy Canola from Canada ...Chinese people can grow it and can make it themselves !
@@etow8034 and Gman Singh, hmmmm... and you two decided to politicize this video. You must be watching too much CNN 🤦♀️
So this is how rapeseed oil is made. I'm into palm oil business.
Very nice videography. Always enjoy watching your channel. Now we can better understand the livelihood in rural China.
By the way, cute baby. My heart melted.
I love that there is no waste!
Also, cute new glasses :)
I found your video very touching. For once we get to see the down-to-earth farmers, how they toiled on the land generations after generations, so the country can be fed. It is indeed a heartwarming sight to see their livelihood has been steadily improving, with tap water, with electricity, and even with mobile communications.
Thank you for the video! Nice!
I love these videos that show how things are made. My only wish is that you would have shown the growing and harvesting process as well. For anyone in the west who is not a farmer this is totally new and interesting. Please keep making more of these videos.
I'm so happy that you say that! I am planning to do this next year, 2020. To film the whole process of rapeseed, wheat and perhaps some more crops or veggies. From preparing the soil, the sowing, the growing season, the harvesting, and then how it's stored and used. But it's a long process, so those videos will probably not be ready until 2021! In Sweden we have a saying that goes like this "The one who awaits something good, can never wait for too long". Haha. I just hope that they will turn out well!
Beautiful video thank you Miriam 😁
Just came across this video of your Miriam. Very interesting to see rapeseed oil made the traditional way.
I have seen a few of your other videos with your cute infant San San and your supportive parents-in-law. You see to have adapted and integrated well into the rural Chinese way of life. You are very resourceful and hardworking. The quality of your videos are excellent, as good technically and with great music backing as that of professional movie makers. Very well done. Thanks for sharing more videos of your life in China. Wish you good luck and prosperity in the future. Chia yoe !!!
Well done! Keep up the good work:)
God bless you and family... watching your videos from Malaysia.❤
Miriam you have attracted a lovely family and experience into your life.. !
Great insights on rural China watching this channel thank you
There is also a similar Chinese saying, "不干不净，吃了没病", which roughly translates to "Not clean but dirty, after eaten makes you healthy."
这是我见过的最好的歇后语翻译👍
@@luxi2701 哈哈哈哈
U never run out of topics of ur blog n China countryside it’s a huge country.
Man, I miss the good (or not so good) old days in China.
Quite a complex procedure but great rewards
菜籽油真的是超级好的油。对身体很好，生油没熟油好吃。不吃肉就得多补充优质植物蛋白。我妈年轻时不吃肉，老了得了类风湿，医生说就是和生活习惯有关，造成了后天的免疫缺陷，治都没法治，只能保养，年轻时优质蛋白补充不充足，再加上长期的疲劳性劳动，尤其对于女性，所以希望吃素的你能多补充优质植物蛋白。让你老公多给你弄点豆腐，牛奶，麦片之类的。女性吃饭千万不要迁就，强壮的父母才能有强壮的后代。
西方尤其是北欧西欧很多人尤其是女性喜欢成为vegan
这是一种社会思想毒瘤，和美国现在的左派思潮盛行有关
中国社会千万不要如此
Wow awesome I miss living in China I can't wait to move back
This is seriously world class documentary!
Something new for me. Thanks
Miriam, I saw a Scandinavian cooking show that used rapeseed oil for mayonnaise. Rapeseed oil is more desirable than other oils for mayonnaise because its flavour is neutral and would not affect the taste of the finished product.
Great video! I'm a Chinese. I hope more people can see your video and learn about Chinese traditional culture.😄👍
非常棒的视频! 我是中国人，希望能有更多人看到你的视频，了解中国的传统文化。😄👍
So neat! Thanks for making and sharing this video.
很喜欢你的视频，特别是和村民的采访
Very fascinating ! I changed from using rapeseed oil back to olive oil because I watched an American you tube video stating that all seed oil need chemical to extract the oil. That put me off. Now watching your video, cold press rape seed oil is organic. I will go back to it. Thank you very much.
Yes, they surely need no chemicals to extract this oil! I hope you can find some good one! I personally like the flavour of rapeseed oil better than that of olive oil!
I’m from Qinghai and live in LA now. Thank you for your sharing. I was wondering if I can visit your place during the Christmas?
Me too. I am from Xining, now in LA. Hope to meet my 老乡们!

都是边娃们哇，我在东边的佛州俩，欢迎来浪来。
A lesson in life. Thank you
367斤菜籽能出140斤油，出油率好高
Lovely video👌
The oil processing system is so similar to the rustic manual mustard oil mills out here in India
lovely!
The rapeseed mill press owner is very handsome!
This was fascinating
I really wish that you can be teacher in rural. Not only you can teach children/teenagers English, but also you can share your view of point, your worldwide expirience, your attitude to life You will plant the hope to each child to explore the world ,also to love their life and family. That will really change their life.
This video is so well made. The way you presented it is just beautiful. Btw I am still waiting for the wedding video, haha
Aw, thank you so so much! And I will make it, I just have a long list of videos waiting to be edited, so it will probably not be time for the wedding video until February some time haha.
Ustedes hacen los mejores vídeos!!! Gracias por compartir.
interesting things I learned from this video. thanks
農民的生活點滴👍.
