How many people like Becky's videos before even watching it?🤚 because you know its going to be great!
That means the world to me! Thanks!
All of us!
I do 🙋♀️, Becky never disappoints
Oh yes, she is very relatable .
Her content is brilliant it’s my go to for relaxing I dont know why but she just chills me out
17:38, anyone else think Becky was walking over to the camera to let us have a sniff of the garlic balsamic glaze? I laughed at myself when she didn't offer! LOL!!!
yep - I thought the same thing.
Ha I actually thought the same thing
Yes I thought the same thing.
She sure was.
I was leaning in to sniff! 😊
Becky you deserve every single Blessing you have received. I’ve watched you grow as a content creator from that very first video in your previous kitchen where you said let’s see how this goes! You have worked so very very hard as a professional, as a loving wife for your husband and as a mother. Well done sweetie! Here’s to 2024 and more adventures 😊
Beautifully said! I agree Becky is such a beautiful person inside and out and I think this was my favorite video so far!
Many blessings to you and your family in 2024❤
My 4 year old son and I love watching your videos! I guess I didn't realize how much he paid attention until this video when he started reacting. First, he shouted, "Tibro is thirsty! Or maybe it's Orbit? I'm not sure which one." Then, when you talked about if things didn't work out, you can always order a pizza, he nodded yes and said, "That's a great plan Becky. Everybody loves pizza." And the best part, when you cut into the focaccia and talked about the crumb, he was literally yelling at the screen, "but what about the taste test, Becky? Taste test!" 😂 We're excited to rewatch tomorrow so we can follow along to make our own focaccia!
Hahahah this really cracks me up what a sweetheart 😃🥹
I was laughing so hard through this whole post. I think Becky just attracts great people...even great 4 year old people who can totally relate to her authenticity. So yeah: What about the taste test Becky????
I love that you don’t edit your mistakes! We all do them. You cook with the experience of someone who learned cooking from love.
When my boys were toddler and preschool age,I started a tradition of putting up a kids tent in the livingroom and roasting marshmallow in the wood stove for S'mores. We still make S'mores in the wood stove.
Becky, you keep me company in the kitchen and have inspired me to cook from scratch. I’ve totally changed my ways for this new year and have been making bread, English muffins, etc all from scratch! Am excited to try pasta soon! 💕 Thanks for always teaching us!
😊😊😊
Same here, I save her videos, so I can watch them while I cook.
Same here. I put one of her playlists on and have it going while I cook and clean. Something about her energy just makes me want to keep going.
I have to be very careful when watching Becky’s videos. Her energy is catching! I find myself going like a steam engine, only to run out of steam earlier than I planned!! lololol I have to remember that I am in my 70’s now and my energy doesn’t last like it did when I was in my 30’s!! 😂OH, Me! Well, I did get a lot done, cooking wise!! Hubby was so happy and surprised to get a new recipe for dinner that night! Plus dessert! Becky’s energy is catching, but now I have to make sure I reasonably assess my energy, so I don’t give out in the middle of a new recipe! I love watching her, when it comes to cooking, she is wholly entertaining and I always learn more than I knew when I started watching! I love watching Becky’s videos! ALL of them! 🥰😋
I know this is random. But seeing the gingerbread house you made on the shelf always makes me smile. 😊
Thank you! It's making me happy and it's why I haven't taken it down yet
Oh, please leave it up. It is a happy piece of art.
What a wonderful video I just watched. Thank you so much ❤️
I see that house too and think it's so cute. It makes me smile. I enjoy watching your videos.
It all looks so delicious Becky. You’re just a little whirlwind - where you get your energy is beyond a good number of us.
@@viennehaake9149
Why so nasty?
@@cynthiafisher9907 trolls are hilarious. rude people are a different category lol it's no biggie... it's be weird to NOT get nasty comments. it's youtube after all..a dumpster fire for sure.
@@cherylkoenig5509 so rude!! Be nice!
I just found Becky about a week ago. I’ve been binging all her videos. I wish she could bottle up some of her energy for me. Lol. I love her and her mom together. Her mom needs a you tube channel too!
Wow, thank you!
There are a LOT of videos. They are so instructional and inspiring. Enjoy!
Welcome to my happy place!! Becky is sure to brighten your day and keep you entertained while you learn. If there was a magic elixer I'd certainly need some myself!!
Oh, the joy of finding/watching Becky for the first time! Before you know it, you'll have watched every episode and will be checking your phone every other day for her new video!
I just found her a little over 2 months ago and I've been binging old videos too. I'm such a fan!
I bet Josh's co-workers say "Way to go Josh!" We love you Becky +❤❤❤
This channel relaxes me. I like to hear her talk and narrate everything, and she is so organized.
Girl been watching you for a couple of years and some network is missing out on you. You need your own show. Great as always keep it up ❤
I had the same thought.
@@cynthiafisher9907 my thoughts exactly. Becky is in complete control and we reap the benefits. A network would just try to make her be someone she’s not.
The pasta recipe I use goes by ratios, 100g flour per large egg. Weighing it out might help when you're doubling. I know you're in love with the scale now.
@@brenkay354 The recipe (for a manual pasta rolling machine) is 100g flour, 1 egg, 1 tsp evoo, and 1/4 tsp kosher salt. That's about 2 servings. Multiply as needed.
@brenkay354 salt is not the enemy, if using good salt. High in minerals. Taste your food and go by taste when possible. Chefs say to season every layer.
You forgot knifes Friend! Some people use knifes especially when you serve salad.🎉
Just want to say thank you… you have given me the confidence to cook from scratch, preserve food, grow a garden, and try again when I fail. My entire family is grateful. ❤
Aw thanks so much for sharing that with me!
Becky, I truly enjoy watching and learning with you on your beautiful homestead.
I wanted to share something important with you- to remember the importance of slowing down and taking advantage of the smaller tasks like: watching the butter melt or the noodles boil.
I enjoy times like these to work on mindfulness and to help quiet the mind.
Thank you for another inspiring video! 💜🌈✌️☯️🌎🌟🌹👩🚀
I’ve made my own pasta sheets for lasagna and I just leave the sauce on the runny side and use fresh pasta sheets without boiling! My fav thing to do because it takes longer to make them! The extra moisture in the sauce keeps keeps them softer!
That’s what I would do. Same as oven ready. Leave sauce a bit runny and use freshly made pasta sheet without the hassales of boiling.
If you want perfect pasta, WEIGH THE INGREDIENTS!! Perfect every single time.
The formula is:
15 oz dry ingredients
8 oz wet ingredients
I would kill to be sitting on a bar stool on the edge of the kitchen island and watch you cook !!!
Hi Becky my late Italian Mother would be so proud of you. From making homemade lasagna noodles right down to the panacotta.
You did a phenomenal job preparing this beautiful and delicious Italian dinner. Happy New Year to you and your family. 🥰🥰🥰
Becky, your view out your kitchen window is beautiful! Glad you are showing young or new cooks how to overcome little mistakes and not being wasteful and throwing it away.
FYI.....The bowl always has to be bigger than your sieve. Also, you could have made a regular lasagne with the remaining bolognese sauce.
Almost an hour and half?! Wow, what a treat!!!!
Exactly what I was thinking!!!
Love her long videos
I think that this is the first video that went so long your dog asked for a drink and bathroom break ! Thank you Becky .
They say to put your candles in the freezer to make them burn longer. A thicker candle may need 6 to 8 hours while a thin, tapered candle may only need about an hour. 😊❤
So glad to cook a big pot of creamy chicken noodle soup while watching my favorite TH-camr! Thanks for being you Becky!
Oh my God Becky sweetheart, you've made my night! Had just poured a big glass of red wine and now your video, perfect night. Eight o clock at night here in Scotland.. xx
Hi Becky, do you mind sharing the focaccia recipe?
I'm so excited! An evening with Becky and all of you is in my near future!!
12:12 - Loved when she was leaving the room but looked back to keep explaining… these are the little things that make us feel like we’re right there with her in her kitchen :)
I made lasagna when my son and French son (the kiddo we hosted 13 years ago) we’re visiting. My French son was thrilled I was using ricotta instead of béchamel. The French use béchamel but his Italian grandmother always used ricotta and he was thrilled! Your menu looked amazing and I’m sure everyone had a very happy new year!
I truly admire your passion,your determination,and your dedication to all that you do. You are in your element when in the kitchen or garden. Waiting to see lots more for this year. You are truly a blessing to your family and youtube family also. ❤❤❤
Becky, you have been such a blessing to me.
I love you and videos with your parents, mother-in-law and sisters. You are Amazing! Thank you for getting me throught 2023. It was a rough one for me. ❤❤❤
Hi Becky, seeing you use up the wine from the fridge reminded me that in the 80’s we used to freeze opened wine in ice cube bags and then use it straight from the freezer. This seems to have gone out of fashion but it must be better than pouring it down the sink ? Happy New Year 🥳
Becky, Orbit and Tibby are such a cute addition to your videos. I love to see them 😊
A great tip for serving lasagna is resting it at least a half an hour before serving. So set your sit down dinner arrival time for guests around that half hour rest time. Their taste buds will surely be ready smelling the wonderful lasagna while arriving and by the time everyone arrives and greetings are done.....time to serve the star of the show.....the lasagna! 😊❤
When you took a sniff of the garlic balsamic, then walked toward the camera, I literally felt like I was in your kitchen & you were going to offer me a sniff. Too funny. 😂
I did too and I laughed out loud because I was thinking shes gonna say smell this 😅
I thought the same thing!😁
🤦 my nose literally reached in for the sniff. 😂
Ditto 😂
🙋
This was such a beautiful segment. I would think that your friends and family truly love and adore you just as you love and care for them, with your love language of hosting, cooking, and just bringing everyone together to enjoy your wonderful meals. Although we aren't family, I consider you a friend in my heart. Happy New Year.🎉
I made your recipe for 1 hour buns and they were a hit!!! Would love to try and make the focaccia bread but don't have the recipe and you did not talk us through the one you made. Send it pleeeeaaaaaassssse? Love watching your videos.
I grabbed precut sheets by happy accident!! I think of you each time I cook with them! I love how easy it is to use them!
What a wonderful dinner, home and family you have. You are all blessed to have each other. Happy, healthy 2024 🎉
Just wanted to say Thank You Becky. You make me feel like "I CAN DO THIS". I have cooked several things you have shown us and they were wonderful. Happy New Year!
You are so welcome!
Becky it is such a great scenery from your kitchen to the outside view. Looking forward to all of the goodies you are making today.
you're a genius. you should run for president. the way you handle a prep day is an artform. I'd trust you with running my country.
I ♥♥♥ the dogs running in!!! thank you so much for your wonderful content, It's always a joy to watch you cook and garden.
I don’t see the focaccia bread recipe, it looked so good , I would love to try it.
This is a little sad, but one of my best Christmas memories is Starbucks gingerbread biscotti with a little bit of white icing. So so good. Maybe an idea for when next year comes around…
I freeze whole garlic cloves. It is easy to slice, mince or press right out of the freezer.
Beautiful meal! You always cook up pretty foods! I hope 2024 brings you many happy and healthy days!
Happy 2024 to you and your family, Becky, and to the whole Acre Homestead community! Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement and guidance!
Becky would you please add the bread recipe to the list of recipes - thank you it looks so delicious!
When I occasionally make pasta from scratch I too skip boiling the noodles when using a saucy sauce.
I don’t know about anyone else but I’m exhausted just watching you tackle the prep, all the cooking and the cleanup!!! I learned a lot and now I may need a nap!!😂
Can you please add the focaccia bread recipe in the description? Thank You!
Becky, I love watching you. You are so ambitious and productive!
A great tip is to keep a few cans of evaporated milk on hand or even powdered milk or both! 😊❤
I love how excited you get when you are cooking, your love language is definitely making food for your family & friends.
You are such a wonderful cook you show all your emotions so you are so natural born to cook and one day I hope with a cook book you show yours ups and downs it's amazing. I had cancer all last year 2023 and are now in remission and I have always look forward to your videos thankyou very much for being you ❤
I did this with garlic after I saw you do it the first time. I will never use garlic any other way! I also made your 1 hour dinner rolls on Christmas. My entire family told me I have to make them from now on. Thanks for all the inspiration.
Becky you have the best channel ever and I mean this with love but... HOW ON EARTH DID YOU RUN OUT OF GARLIC?????? Oh and that corn relish/salsa? Sometimes when I watch you canning I think, how will that be enough??? Shutting up and going back to the peanut gallery now. 🤣 You are truly amazing. ❤❤❤❤❤
Haha I use a lot of it lol
Today I made two 9”X9” pans of your Lasagna Bolognese With Bechamel Sauce, using my homemade pasta and homegrown tomatoes from last year’s garden.m. I’ve never made a traditional bolognese where you cook down the sauce with sautéed carrots, onions, celery and garlic. You are my favorite TH-camr. I am 62 years old and a pretty advanced cook but I learn new things from you nearly every time I watch. Thank you!
The sauce cooked all morning and smelled heavenly. Now we have one for dinners and one for the freezer to ease my cooking load when I don’t feel like doing all the prep.
With the beautiful window in your kitchen you might want to grow herbs for the winter for when you run out from the garden.
I enjoy watching your videos. You make cooking and baking for loved ones so approachable. You’re right, there’s always pizza!
Becky, girl you look fabulous in this video. I wish I looked that effortlessly amazing in the Kitchen! As always you're so inspiring!
I agree. Becky looks exceptionally stunning today😊
Try the rolled lasagna. It is perfect for large dinners. It's already in serving size. Made it for the first time 48 years ago. I
I just got a pasta attachment for my Kitchenaid since I can’t find my pasta maker from when we moved six months ago. Now I’m inspired to use it!!! I love your videos!! And whoever created flat parchment sheets was a genius! I’m a huge fan and user of parchment paper! I’m a retired elementary school teacher and am loving cooking and crafting on my own time. When my three adult kids were growing up, I stayed home with them and didn’t start teaching until I was 47 because they were my priority. I canned and froze most of my produce from my garden. I’m hoping to grow some veggies this spring and summer and preserve it. Keep up the good content!
Becky I love all your recipes. You make everything look easy. I just got done making your mozzarella, I've made the pasties you made with your mother in-law. I had no idea she had her own TH-cam channel, he said she shed, of course I subscribed 😁
I grew up in Minnesota in Rosemount, Northfield, Bloomington and my mom made pasties but this was my first time making them. Thank you and your mother in-law for inspiring me. They turned out not half bad
I love you keeping me (and my kids) company in the kitchen 💕 You inspire me to meal prep and cook more from scratch every day. 💕💕
Dear Beaky, thank you for your videos! They are truly therapeutic… motherhood and family life didn’t work out for me unfortunately.
I work as a traveling personal chef and restaurant consultant instead. Which I love yet it’s stressful and lonely sometimes. You are doing such an AMAZING job with your cooking, hosting and videos!! You are a wonderful person and the world is a better place because of you in it. Josh, your friends and family are lucky souls to have you in their life.
The key to your perfect focaccia is weighing the ingredients.
Hello Becky, this entire before and after experience of your New Years Eve party is marvelous. The food looks delicious!! Also your tablescape and the candles in the window is truly magical and inviting. Well done!!
Thank you Becky for your videos!! You’ve inspired us to buy a deep freeze and we just stocked it up with some freezer meals. God bless ❤️
I reuse my vanilla beans, to make vanilla. To avoid having to start from scratch each time I make vanilla, I made 2 quarts of it and waited almost 1 year before i used it from the first quart. I only use about 1/3 of the quart, before I refill it with alcohol, and placing it behind my second quart, which I then use vanilla from, and I repeat the process. I never take out the original vanilla beans, but after a few years, I do add some new vanilla beans to what is already in the jars. If I have a recipe that calls for vanilla bean, I take it out of the quart jar. I lovingly call them drunk vanilla beans! I started making vanilla in 2017, and have used it, and given it as gifts to family, and it's still delicious! In fact, it gets better as time goes by.
I always tell people "it's not a mistake. It's a new recipe"!
It’s very tempting to eat everything that I make and of course I have to taste it to make sure that it’s seasoned properly, but I try just to take a small taste so that I don’t start packing the pounds on. I love to cook and it’s such a problem trying not to overheat the food. I never understand some of these chefs that stay skinny. But as I get older, I know it’s a huge problem to get the weight back off. In fact, it stops me from cooking sometimes because I know I’m just going to eat what I cook.
Kudos to you Becky for producing such fantastic content in 2023!!!! I hope your vlog audience grows and grows! God bless you and Josh and your little son!
Becky I just watched this! Omgosh… I would never cancel on you! That looks delicious! God bless!❤
Just about to prep dinner myself! Love to cook with such a nice presence in the background!
Becky, I just want to thank you for your videos. At the start of 2023 i was recovering from back surgery and complications from that surgery. I could not stand without a walker. Your videos inspired ne to want to get well and get in the kitchen again. I have canned strawberry jam, the meals in a jar, beans, and vegetable beef soup. I have also been working in stocking my freezer. Thank you for being such an inspiring person. Happy New Year!🪅🍾💖
I really enjoy watching you prepare for a friends and family dinner. I know it’s a lot a preparation to pull it off and make it look simple to achieve. You are such an inspiration to so many of us. I really enjoy your videos Becky. Thank you! ❤
Absolutely love your videos, thank you for sharing with us and bring such light and joy into ours lives ❤
That was so enjoyable and relaxing to watch after a really tough day at the office. I want to go to dinner at Becky's house! 🤣😂 Seriously though, you have such a gentle and calming voice. That's part of what makes your videos such a pleasure to watch. I only found your channel a couple of months ago, and I've already learned so much. Okay, I've been binge-watching! I now have a set of silicone freezer bags, chopped onions and garlic in the freezer (pie dough is next), and asked and received for Christmas a Danish dough whisk and silicone baking pads. The happiest of new year blessings and wishes, Becky, to you, Josh, and Baby Acre. Hmmm, I guess we'll have to start calling him Toddler Acre pretty soon!
❤ You bring me JOY and comfort... especially on bad days!!! Love to see you enjoying life, especially the way you love LITTLE things🥰
I am from Sweden and I always make lasange with bechamelsauce. I have never tasted it with ricotta :) I love lasange with a lot of bechamel :D mums,,, The setting and the food was beautiful! I wish you and your family a happy 2024! ♥
Becky! You need the kitchenaid fresh prep slicer/shredder. It makes shredding cheese so easy and it’s easier to clean than the food processor.
Also, you should have T-shirts made! The front could say “hello, friend!” And the back could say “Thank you for being you” ❤
Hello Becky, thank you for your positive, happy attitude. You make cooking seem so easy for anyone watching and encouraging for all watchers to try any recipe they might want to try 🤩
You are literally the best! I watched for 5 hours driving back from DC, well listened!
I love your kitchen....so much room to work.....I was always told that biscotti was so hard to make and it isn't !! I will be making that....some like yours and some with pistachio nuts....and the focaccia....I love it....Looking forward to 2024 and lots of new videos ! Thank you for devoting time to all of us....I know that everyone appreciates it. Happy New Year !
I love watching you cook because you are so easy going, adapting as you go, and have your mini Aussies checking in.
Beck, I just wanted to say I enjoy your videos so much! I am older now, but I used to spend most of my days in the kitchen cooking,baking,canning and freezing all of our homegrown vegetables and fruits. It was my favorite room! When we built our house, I told my husband I wanted a big kitchen ❤
Wow! Jinx! Today (!) I emptied 4 pints of raspberry jam I made in Sept, and strained out all the seeds. It looked like each pint was half seeds! I cooked it back down again and reprocessed. I was right…I got 4 half pints when it was all done. It is so much nicer now!
OOooh, Becky, this was a real fancy episode! Totally noticed the turning off of the kitchen light there at the end. Very artsy and cozy! Happy New Year!!
I'm loving this video!! Thank you! Is there a recipe for the focaccia bread? I don't see it on the Scratch pantry webpage.
What a beautiful meal, I love the idea of using fresh pasta for the layers, I have been wanting to make lasagna for a while now, I'm going to try the bechamel too
I don't know about y'all but I wished that I could sit at Becky's table. ❤
Becky...I have an awesome recipe for those cookies from an Italian friend. Almond Biscotti
3 cups of Flour 1 ½ cup of Sugar 1 tsp of Baking Powder 1 1/2 tsp of Vanilla 1/2 tsp of Salt 1 1/2 cup of Whole Almonds 4 Eggs 2/3 of a cup of Unsalted Butter, softened at room temperature 1/4 tsp of Almond Extract
Thanks for sharing!!
I've been making lasagne sheets from scratch for 30 years, and never put them in boiling water. Just roll the sheets, then straight into the Lasagne pan alternately with the sauces. Much less hassle and turns out great.
Becky what a beautiful job you did with your New Year’s Eve party. The food looked delicious as I’m sure it was!❤
Thank you for being you, I have enjoyed watching you throughout 2023 and look forward to seeing what you achieve in 2024. Wishing you and your family a wonderful 2024 and hope all your dreams come true 🎉 🇬🇧🙂
What a great party!!! The food looked fabulous!!!
Oh man, would love that foccacia bread recipe!! Everything looked absolutely delicious!
