The Titanic sank when my Irish grandmother was 14 years old. She made the third class trip to America herself at 16. There was growing unrest in Ireland preceeding the war for independence. My grandmother's older sisters took her to The Plaza hotel for tea...the fanciest restaurant she had ever been in. Recounting the experience to me, she told me about a red wine jelly being served with Crème anglaise. She told me she almost wept because it was too pretty to eat.

My Mothers father was nearly put to work on Titanic as a very young boy to clean shoes etc. Instead his parents and him moved to France to work on a large estate. The owner of the estate had an early plane which my Grandad learned to fly. At the start of WW1 he wanted to be a pilot but having some German ancestry ( middle name Hanover) changed it to Albert and joined RFC at the age of around 18 I believe. I know he was shot down three times but survived the war. When ww2 started he wanted to join the RAF as a fighter pilot but was to old so became an inventor in Portsmouth Dockyard.

I love how meticulous he is, going through every detail of what, by all rights, should be an incredibly simple thing to make. He takes the authenticity seriously and i respect him for it.

The last one was upside down and they had to stand on it. The Titanic sank really fast and the lifeboats were very difficult to launch. James Cameron did a documentary where they tested launching a period-accurate lifeboat. It is very hard with their technology. This is a time period where in many cases entering lifeboats could be more dangerous than staying on the ship. There are cases where the ship sank so slowly that no one on board died because another ship rescued them, but people in lifeboats got swept away by the ocean. The only real conceivable way to have saved more people would've been for the crew to have been better trained and a way to get every lifeboat full. There was no PA system, so many lifeboats weren't filled because everyone around them had already gotten on.

They had to provide their own kit and had to pay for their uniforms that were lost. The Duff-Gordons were unaware of this and thats not a flaw anymore than people today being unaware of the intricacies of any service industry today. He felt so bad for them he offered them 5 towards a replacement of their kit. Honestly, thats still true today in alot of industry and I don't see too many people fundraising to replace peoples tools after a disaster so they can earn a living. Not only are they out a job but out the means to earn any money Its also a hell of alot more than they got as surviors from white star. Vicitims families often received bills instead of compensation. The damages were limited to whatever the salvage value of titanic was. Since only 13or so life boats were recovered all claims were paid out of that. The freight and insured luggage claims brought total payments to 662,000 out of claims exceeding 16 million....some pursers kit didn't even factor if the astors couldn't even get fully compensated.

At my favorite bar, you could get both for 500 yen (about $5) a glass with all the accoutrement for the absinthe (glass and slotted spoon with water and a sugar cube). Chartreuse, as much as I loved it, (and this happened outside of the bar, so not their fault; it was with a bottle my friend had that he didn't like that he poured heavily for me) landed me in the ER with a second degree burn (from drinking too much and being drunk-cold and passing out in front of a space heater). Still, good memories all around and I would still drink Chartreuse and absinthe if I could get it as cheaply as I could in Japan where I am now.

The Gilded Age is one of the most interesting times in recent history to me. The stark contrasts between the extremely rich and the extremely poor. Then you have these many very rigid old traditions and at the same time it was a period of great innovation. People were so hungry for new inventions and the social elite used all these brilliant new advancements and mixed it with their need for splendour. The Titanic is a prime example for this. I am so excited to find any documentaries about this time.

I think I’m more upset that I didn’t come up with this brilliant idea of a KZread account first. You’re presentation, cooking, research, everything is so great. Love the account and never stop

Another wonderful video. Thank you so much. My husband, 83yo, ends every meal with a little cup of jello, sugar free. He also gets it for a sweet after meals at a buffet. He loves it, any flavor. To each his own I guess. I can take it or leave it. You are the best and my favorite videos online come from you. Hope you are enjoying marriage and that you and your husband love each other forever. Thanks again. Be safe, well and happy.

This was very entertaining and educational.. I watched perhaps 2 titanic movies, 1 documentary on making the movie, 1 documentary on scavenging the remnants.. but never came across this kind of experience of reliving life on the titanic

This series is a must for any aspiring chef! It is well researched and immensely informative and entertaining. Thank you Max!!!

This is amazing. I’ve always been obsessed with the titanic, I’m a millennial (thanks, James Cameron) but rarely see anything new.

Loved this series! Thank you for going through all that trouble and research! About jelly: funny how in most Western cultures it’s more of a blast from the past kind of thing and considered ‘basic’ whereas in other cultures jellied desserts do enjoy a festive status. Not always see-through and not always gelatin-based though. In Southeast Asia the ingredient used to help a dessert set is agar-agar which is extracted from seaweed and actually needs to be boiled.

@ragnkja

2 жыл бұрын

It's only jelly on its own that has really lost status; desserts made _with_ jelly are't considered any more "basic" than comparable desserts made without it, and sometimes, such as on certain types of cheesecake, the jelly is considered a necessary element to a fine dessert.

I have gone through the Titanic that is in Gatlinburg, Tennessee and it was so moving and interesting. When you get to the ship a steward gives you a boarding pass with a name of an actual passenger who would have been on the ship. You find out if you lived or died at the end of the tour of the ship. I died both times that I have toured the exhibit. I highly recommend it!

Like Max, I too hate jello. It was my very first act of rebellion: I had just gotten my tonsils out and the nurse was trying to literally force me to eat it (ahh, the seventies). Clearly, she and I were raised in very different environments where no one forced me to do anything. At least not physically. While her back was turned I tossed it on the floor and said, "Oops. I dropped it." She was pissed but another nurse came in with ice cream instead. To this day, I refuse to eat jello of any kind and I always feel this childish, mischievous defiance welling up inside me. It's one of the few times saying NO is actually fun. I guess I never really grew up. 😅

Noel Leslie , Countess of Rothes escaped the ship in lifeboat 8. The sheer trauma of an event of such magnitude caused Her to never leave her home for months. Finally, she pushed herself to go dine at a restaurant for the first in nearly a year . She was delighted to get back into some normality and was enjoyed herself while dining , and then suddenly, she was enveloped in a cloud of dread and terror. She felt as if it were that night , and she was still on board Titanic . She starting to tremble and was stricken with grief and fear. She didn’t understand what had brought this on, and then after a moment, she realized. The musicians at the restaurant were playing The Barcarolle from the tales of Hoffmann. The last time she had heard It was that Sunday evening, at dinner . It was the last song played before dinner ended . The last little bit of peace and happiness to many whom would be dead just a few hours later .

I like the month-long deep dives, as they allow you to get into far more detail and look at a particular event or period with far more nuance.
