    Soap saver: before the invention of fairy dish washing soap or Dawn as they use in the states. Women used to buy SUNLIGHT SOAP which came in a huge block about a foot long and you cut off the size of piece you required. You would put a bit in your soap saver and swish it in a basin of hot hot water which melted the soap to the required soap to water ratio then you washed your dishes but always rinced them in fresh clean water to remove all soap residue. Sunlight soap was also used with a washboard and scrubbing brush for clothing. You could also scrub your floors with it. It is a multi purpose soap... you can still buy it today. XxX

      You can still buy sunlight soap in Australia, but the swisher is long gone. My mother used to melt all the small soap pieces together in a saucepan, and new ones were unwrapped and left alone so they could harden in a drawer before use.

      That reminds me of Blue Power from my home Jamaica. We use it for everything, dishes, clothes, washing up, home cleaning... etc.

    Hi Emily! I collect vintage kitchen appliances and your juice o mat is a NJ-848 model juicer. The NJ-848 patent design was produced between 1939-1946 so your juicer is from the late thirties to mid 1940s! I love old kitchen appliances cause they were made to last. I have a 1931 vintage oster blender that I still use and works perfectly and has a beautiful beehive base design. In my videos you see little peeks of the antique kitchen appliances I have, they are great and you got a beautiful piece of 1940s kitchenware!

    I inherited the hand press juicer from my mom. The best juicer and doesn't leave a single drop of juice behind. I am 58 years old. I had fresh squeezed juice every day from our naval orange tree outside when I was little. Excellent. We would peel the dry meat off the orange halves and have that as a snack. The chopper you used on the zucchini was used for nut meats, onion slices and such and would have been used in a bowl for convenience.

    The soap saver was being sold until the 1960s. I had one but it got lost when I moved. You may have to cut the soap with scissors or a knife and soak it for 2-3 minutes in HOT water. Then swish it back and forth. Yes it really worked. Those were the days when NOTHING was wasted, even a tiny piece of soap.

    Your Mouli grater would have been made of steel (or maybe tin for very cheap ones). Remember, aluminum is still a fairly recent addition to our kitchens. It was rare to see up into the '50s. This is one reason why "tin" foil is still used in common speech; the prevalence of aluminum in day to day life differed not so long ago, and in living memory.

    I remember actually using a Mouli Grater with my Grandma when I was a little girl. We used it for grating nuts mostly for recipes. I'm sure she grated some cheese with it too. I actually have two new ones now. They aren't Mouli Graters though. One is a Cooking Chef I believe and the other is Pampered Chef. They both have removable barrels, but they also have about 5 different replacement barrels. One slices and the others have different grating sizes from large down to micro graters. As with the Mouli Grater, they all can change around so you can use them with the right or left hand. They are very handy gadgets. I do think the Pampered Chef grater is a much better quality than the other though. I wish I still had my Grandma's Mouli Grater though just to keep around for the memories.

      The chopper would be used on herbs or cut down veggies. Grease removers, in my opinion, are not very efficient. Pop your soup in the fridge and do something else for a while. Maybe stick some ice cubes in it (on cooled soup, of course). Grease comes off in a slab.

    Emmy, please consider captioning your videos for those that are deaf or hard of hearing. You can even choose the option to let your viewers caption them for you, sometimes in different languages. The channel Eat your Kimchi does this (as do many others) and I think they have fewer subs than you. Within a day their videos will be captioned in several languages. We would definitely help you out if you asked!

      If you’re making something like beef stock then leaving the fat in while the beef is simmering can make the whole thing taste of lard. My old cookbook suggests separating the fat, using it to fry veggies for the soup, that way you don’t waste it.

The biggest point to me is none of these require electricity so when the power goes out as long as you can see you’re golden!!! BLESSINGS OF LOVE

    My mom and grandma had some of these except the grease "getter" and juicer. The chopper was used (in our case) for chopping cabbage and other things like that after it was cut. Not sure if that was the target for it or not. Remember using the grater when I lived at home. It was terrific and no knuckles were sacrificed. Easy cleanup too. We often had nut cracking around the kitchen table to have for baking. Not exactly like this one though. This was so much fun to watch.

    We have a similar chopping device still in my family for chopping onions.
    But ours has a cylindrical "lid" around it and with every chop turns for a couple of degrees so there is no mess and it actually chops very evenly.
    I don't use it in day to day cooking but it's great for very large portions. 😄

    We had the skimming ladle when I was growing up. Very handy to have, especially when using the cheaper ground beef (higher fat content) in your soups/sauces. And honestly, you just didn't worry if you got a few drops of broth along with the grease because this ladle was so much easier than using a spoon to skim with.

    I'm in my 50s and my grandmother used the cheese grater to grate eggs for egg salad. It makes more of an egg paste, which is really nice. The old graters were a pain because if you didn't get them absolutely dry they would rust. After she washed and towel dried hers, shed put the gas stove on very low and put the grater over the flame to finish drying it. These style graters are also great for grating nuts and chunks of chocolate.
