Hey guys! If you make any of the recipes in this video, we'd absolutely love it if you could let us know! We loved reading your comments on our last video asking for a more detailed episode sharing more about why we forage elderflower and the uses we have for it. We hope you enjoy this week's film! See you soon, Jack and Gabby xx

Watching you guys from Southern California. Love your videos. Sending hugs 😃

I never imagined an old plastic plant pot could bring so much pleasure to a dog....simple pleasures. Summer is here...nice.

Love following your adventures. The cordial looked great. Thanks for posting.

Elderflower symbolises Samhain, Halloween. Branches were hung on the door to keep evil spirits away. Flowers were used to heal in ancient times for swellings. As you know all wild plants have a purpose.Back in Roman times the root was used. I have made elderberry wine & it is ok in small amounts.. 😂 Good luck with your allotment😊

Such a beautiful episode. I love your outlook on life, of the simple pleasures and love of the land. Really want to try the elderflower cordial. Such a easy way to make a beautiful summer drink. Enjoy the sunshine xx

My beautiful boat family. Hugs from Texas……. I have never seen elder flowers.

We absolutely love your channel and watched back from the very start. You are both amazing people. X

Beautiful episode. All of the goodies looked delicious.

The tiny flowers in your red hair looked so pretty 🥰

I didn’t know that about elder and fire! Brilliant!

Great summer appreciation video. The cordial looks delicious.

What a beautiful vlog. I definitely need to try that cordial ❤ Otters are my favourite . What a treat to get to see them wild ❤️

So inspiring and beautiful thank you so much x

Loved the beginning to the vlog, those halcyon days of summer, really lovely. All the recipes are great, just need to get my act together to actually try them 🙂

I have never seen an elderberry flower to my knowledge In Florida. The recipes look delicious. I agree that a cookbook would be amazing. Can add it to the collection from Holly the cafe boat.

At the very beginning with Jack’s monologue it reminded me of Benedict Cumberbatch’s reading of Ode to a Nightingale. Your accent is so lovely, you should do audio books! Always love your videos spending a little time watching the 3 of you is always so relaxing. The recipes are always interesting! I feel like I have to make this Turkish Delight, I love lavender. Cheers! Edit: I feel guilty I forgot about Milly when I said the 3 of you, she is always a bright spot in the videos. I shared with my sister because she loves a good dressing recipe. Excited to try some of these out!

My my auntie used to make elderflower wine.I must say have you ever thought about doing a a recipe book maybe just a little one.I must say i always enjoy your videos.Have a lovely week.😊😊🧸🦴

Oh that's so nice to hear, thanks for the binging and welcome to the channel 🙂🙂

hi,you three. We have an Elderflowerbush in our garden and every year we make a few liter of the delicious syrup from it. another thing i have to say, This episodes Intro was the most beautiful you ever had. thanks for sharing and enjoy summer.

Really nice summer vlog 🤩

Love seeing you forage and cook. Hopefully there will be lots of elderberries too, so you can forage those and make them into a syrup with your raw honey to take in the winter. Especially useful once you’re dealing with all of the bugs children bring home from nursery in a few years time!

Such a fun video❤

I always enjoy your adventures. This one brought memories from long ago. Grandma Frieda's Elderblossom Wine I was told when I was a child (I'm 78) that this recipe came to America from Germany with my Grandma Frieda's family in 1891 when she was ten years old. Somebody in the family has made a "run" of it almost every year since. I made my last batch, however, in 1987. It makes a pale golden dry wine that mellows to an almost liqueur-like quality in time. Ingredients: 1 qt elderberry blossoms 1 gal boiling water 2 gal cool water 1 lemon, sliced 1 orange, sliced 1 lb raisins 9 lbs sugar (10 lb bag minus 2 1/4 cups) 1 yeast cake Directions: Separate as many of the individual, tiny blossoms from their connecting stems as practical (any remaining stems will give the wine a bitter taste.) This is most time-consuming and will leave a durable nasty yellow-brown stain on your thumb and forefinger if you do not use surgical gloves. Put blossoms, lemon, and orange (in a fermentation sack or nylon panty hose leg) into a container with sugar and pour boiling water over them. Stir to dissolve sugar. Add cool water, stir, and add yeast (Never add the yeast until after the cool water has been added). Let stand, covered, in a warm place for 7 days, remove fermentation sack, and add raisins (in a fermentation sack). Let stand 6 days, remove raisins, and jug in a five gallon carboy fitted with a fermentation lock. When fermentation activity has ceased, I normally stopper the jug and store the wine in a cool dark place.

Hi there I made cordial this year my own version added some rose petals to part of the batch looks so pretty but tastes of elderflower my mother used to make it almost every year ❤ delicious it is summer in a bottle and I have dried lots to infuse in honey in the winter which will be a new thing this year for me recommended by a fellow forager! Loving your vlogs and Tilley chewing flower pots my border terrier used to do the same thing!

Many thanks for all the recipes and liked the blind fold test. Thank you.

Another great video, I enjoy seeing the things you make, I did the cous beetroot salad you made a week or so ago, it was lovely I didn't put the tarragon in it I used rocket, it was so fresh. The Turkish delight looked lovely it's my favourite anyway, wish I could of tasted it! More food vlogs please 😊x

Great video, how lovely to Sean otter and to film it. Take care. xxxx

The cordial looked amazing lovely vlog thanks fir sharing from your oldies 🤗🤗🤗🤗

Delish elderflower recipes, keep them coming. 😊💚

I will definitely be checking out these recipes! Gorgeous chillaxing video. Thankyou 🙏

Wonderful, love the recipes ❤

Beautiful!

Another great video. I have been hoping for a better summer, but it has proven to be fairly soggy so far.

❤❤❤❤❤

Always such a joy to watch your videos 👌😁. Your elderflower produce looked lovely. I haven't made the cordial yet but would love to give it a go. I have the black elder in my garden with pink flowers... can you still use them 🤔. You have the cutest little lad and the cutest pooch 💕. Really look forward to your videos... so relaxing to watch and you are such a lovely couple 💖🙏☺️😘

Grate video guys

You have such fun. The recipes look delicious 😊

Omg elderflower is my favourite drink but I'm too lazy to make it so I just by the cordial and elderflower fizzy spritz from Lidl 😂😂

Wonderful recipes. Elderflower really is such a wonderful flower. I use a slightly different recipe, that was given to me by a friend. However, i am going to try your recipe for a comparison. How long does your cordial last for, when stored? Happy days xx

We don’t have elderflowers here in upstate NY. Would dried elderflowers work? Thx

I think you need to make a cookbook with all the lovely drinks and food you put together , I would definitely buy a copy 😊👍

Yes please, a forage and cook book. Would be great 🍄🍄

Is corn flour the same as corn starch?

Thanks!

How do you identify Elderflower? I picked something that looked like Elderflower but it wasn't 😂

Thanks

You also plant elder flower for protection in the pagan.
