Because there is no meat it is a mushroom spread not pate=PAT TAY. Vermouth=VER MOOTH. Your recipes are so unique...I have tried a few having to adapt to what grows here. They were yummy! I love how you are learning all of the plants and mushrooms of your area. Mushrooms are hard to learn and identify. Kudos. Thanks for sharing!

I get so into your videos, that I find myself swiping off mosquitos - even though there are none here in Iceland...yet. The number of your subscribers are well deserved in my opinion and I hope they keep growing. My favourite is pumpkin pie 😃

Your opening sequence has never failed to impress me with all of the beauty of Alaska. Excellent editing on your part to include so much beauty in just a few seconds of video. I’m also always amazed at your knowledge of the edible vegetation in your specific area you are in. Your videos are AWESOME

It's funny how regional some things are that you don't expect. I grew up on the east coast and I remember vermouth commercials on TV way back when, and everyone ate pate. Then they talk about things like kefir cheese and cowboy candy and I'm off to the internet to find out what it is.

Greetings from Pakistan.Good to see chickens and bees are doing well with beautiful morning shorts .Very informative video about wild mushrooms,berries and preserving the same for upcoming winter season.I really appreciate the hard work you guys are putting in your day to day life and sharing the same with viewers amazing.Filming and editing is amazing and par of excellence.Keep traveling, working, cooking, eating, camping, fishing, hunting,guarding,canning and smiling 😊

💚 The foraging of berries and all those lovely mushrooms looks so enjoyable (not the mosquito part). Those myshroom dishes look amazing! And what a Magnificent Berry Pie. I just love and appreciate your nature video footage, Ariel. It's so Soothing to my Soul. 💚

Glad to see you’re having a break after all that construction. This videos needs to come with the warning ‘Do not watch when hungry’ everything you make looks so delicious.

Love you both for sharing your wonderful life!

Something I was told years ago when foraging mushrooms was that it's best to use a mesh bag/pouch or basket that allows the mushrooms to breathe to prevent them from getting slimy, and it also allows for spores to release while you forage.

I can't believe how long I have watched you guys, seems like the years fly by when it comes to jelly canning time.. THE KZread GOATS

Love when you add the temperature, sunrise, and sunset to your videos! The variety of foods you are able to forage is astounding. The pie looked delicious. The mosquitoes looked vicious.

It's pronounced vermooth and it could be considered a type of wine. Usually used with gin or vodka to make martinis. Excellent for cooking. The white vermouth is dry. Sweet vermouth is red.

It is a fortified wine.

The coral mushroom is one of my favorites. We would soak them in salt water overnight, rinse, dip in eggs, flour and fry. Loved them.

I worked most of my adult life in Northern Canada but chose to reside near 49°N. It really warms my heart to see two compatible people making forage and harvesting.

My favorite pie is the one in front of me. That one you made looks delicious. Love you guys.

After 'The Hut' episodes, it's nice to see more relaxed activities. That blueberry mead looks like it will be delicious! It sounds like a great combination. My pie vote goes to chocolate silk as well. 👍🏜

When you put the road in by the bees, you can keep the fireweed by plucking the rhizomes out of the tractor-lifted soil. Replant in the new area immediately if the weather is appropriate, or pot up until you have a place for them 😊

So good to see you guys in the forest again picking all sorts of Alaskan treasures , preserving them and cooking all sorts of dishes. I used to do a delicious cranberry pie for Christmas. Family loved it and so did I. Now I leave much of special cooking and baking to my children… Such a pleasure to view your creativity in action… and in opening spaces of Alaska… Keep safe as always ❤

Hi there guys, your pate as you call it is the French word for paste, it's spelt pâté and said pat-ay.....I thinks it's amazing how much you're able to harvest fresh from your land, fish and hunt....love your lifestyle and love seeing Alaska through your eyes! ❤❤

Next time you make wine be sure to boil your mixture for a few minutes, allow to cool, and then pitch your yeast. Way more likely your batch won’t spoil, plus you won’t have the native yeast competing with the specialty wine yeast you added. Looks delicious

Since they pitched a whole package of yeast into the one gallon carboy there will be no problem with the D47 overtaking any wild yeast that is present.

Boiling will absolutely effect flavor. For good or ill, hard to say til it's done. Another option is campden tablets. Not my favorite, but for wild fruits and such it is a very good option. Edit: They used frozen berries. No need for boiling or campden. Freezing will kill off wild yeasts and kill or retard any bad bacteria to the point the wine yeast will beat them into submission.

Such beauty! Arielle & Eric I loved your time lapsed footage! Can’t wait for the rest! Especially the berry pies! 😉 WOW! The mushrooms looked so delicious! Loved your berry preserves. Like you, Arielle, I love homemade pumpkin pie but I also love warm berry pies… I often top Raspberry pie with coffee ice cream… we would pick berries in the wild when I was young, but not as many varieties as you have… just blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and black raspberries! Loved this video!

The foraging or exploring is so cool, and simply beautiful. The big bumblebee just hovering there by the flower was perfect! That berry pie looked amazing, and my mouth was watering over the mushrooms. Who knew there would be so many types right on your property?

Loved it. I am so happy for you both and enjoying watching you implement your skills improving your new property. Thank you for sharing your talent and courage with us it’s very inspirational. ❤

Vermouth ( pronounced ver-moo-th) is a type of wine. I have to say I love your channel and never miss a video! I admire your adventurous spirts and your great relationship. I’m looking forward to watching all the wonderful things you have planned for your new property come together.

Great to see you doing something a bit different from the last videos, which I have to say I really enjoyed seeing you start the build of your workshop Take care both of you and all your livestock livestock

We’re in your neck of the woods headed back to lower 48 sadly after 8 amazing years. I freakin LOVE AK and will miss it dearly!!!! I’ll be watching to live vicariously through you 2

Hi just wanted you to know, Vermouth (pronounced Ver moo th) is a wine that is flavored with herbs, spices and roots. You can get either sweet or dry. Each is good depending on what you want to cook with it. It isn’t a drinking wine but can be mixed with different drinks. The most common is a Martini. My favorite use is with chicken that has been pressed with Parmesan cheese and sautéed in olive oil. Deglaze the pan with Vermouth and finish in the oven. Have fun with it. There are lots of recipes you can use it with.

Great find of the lingonberries! Very traditional Scandinavian delicacy that IKEA shoppers may be familiar with. It’s used just like ( and tasted similar to) cranberries. Perfect accompaniment to Swedish meatballs. I’ve been able to grow some here in the Ozarks. Enjoy!

My parents were from Newfoundland and we ate the same berries you harvested but Newfoundland has different names for them. Lingon berries are called partridge berries and make a great tart jam and cloud berries are called bake apples and we used to eat them with canned cream. Thanks for the memories❤️

Once again another amazing video. Deb and I make it a date night to watch your videos. Absolutely love them. I can't tell you how many times we've talked about moving to Alaska because of you two. Just not sure how we would survive the winters. North east Washington's winters seem long too. I've been watching you since you were in Oregon. Your videos have gotten so much better. Have a great week. See you next week.

Thank you both for videoes. Sending love and kindness from Gol in Norway.🙂

Chocolate silk is definitely one of my favorites too, but my absolute favorite it Carmel pecan pie! 🤤 🥧

Awesome episode and that berry pie was gorgeous! I was wanting a piece of it with vanilla icecream. Berry and peach pies are my favorite. All of the meals you two make are so scrumptious looking. Well done on the Quonset, it is incredible…man, what a job.

The mushrooms you found on your property were awesome. So neat. The berry pie looked yummy.

One thing I love about the way you interact with nature is you consider nature not just your wants, I'm not going to pick this right now because of the pollinators love to see it!

I see unripe Lingonberries as you move into the treeline. When my parents homesteaded in Birchwood sixty years ago, on what eventually became Jayhawk Drive, we had a beautiful wild Raspberry patch which was shouldered by wild red currants. The back area of near our log house where the well was dug (150 ft deep by hand), eventually grew over with a carpet of Lingonberries which makes the best sauce to eat with moose, reindeer, and other wild game. the edges of our driveway filled in with blueberry bushes. Enjoy nature's bounty, and thanks for taking me back in time to one of my happiest memories.

What a beautiful foraging day! And the food you prepared looked amazing. Well done you two! Your property is amazing. 💕💕

It was great to see the scenery at the beginning of the video. Its amazing to see what you are finding to forage on the property. The chickens are looking great. Your mushroom supper looks tasty. Until your next video, take care and be safe.(Judy NB)🌲🇨🇦

Your videos make me happy…thank you that I can be a part of your journey…I learn so much from you two😊❤

The filming and video editing this past year has been really well done. Sometimes I go back and watch the early videos and the difference! It’s crazy.

That’s so wonderful you can harvest some wild berries in mushrooms on your own property. I’m glad to see you guys are taking some break from hard-working building project. Your berry pie looked so delicious. Great video💕

Oh that berry pie is more than I can bear. Absolutely stunning. 1st place at the County Fair for sure. A dollop of vanilla ice cream on the side and voila!! A taste of paradise. Magnificent!

I love cloudberry, and wild rasperry, ,they taste the best of all wild berries. A nice video with things from nature, nature is GREAT if it can stay healthy.

Great show! Educational while dining with the honey bees.

Your videos make my week! Thank you 😊

The pie looks amazing. Living on the land, while hard work, looks so rewarding. I wish you both the best!

I love lingonberries. We used to go out in the forest in Norway when I was little and forage for them and they were then made into a jam we usually had with meatballs or other meat. So delicious- I like them better than cranberries. Love, love, love your videos. ❤️

(It's your first year there, so hard to know) But, maybe the raspberries did so well because the bees were right there to pollinate the patch? Great video, as always. :)

My wife and I were just discussing tonight how glad we are that you both moved up closer to us here in Fairbanks. Certain kinds of people "belong" up here and you're both those kinds of people. We've been following you since your move to Alaska and we love how you represent our bountiful harvest, wild and self-determined. It's an awesome way to live, but we're also glad it takes serious "grit" to thrive here.

I love how you figure out how to make use of everything!

Thank you so much! You answered my questions about some of the mushrooms I have. I have books and even used an app to help identify what we have up here. I do have a lot of the hawk one. My property is also covered with low bush cranberries with some of the pumpkin berries and blue berries. You guys are awesome! Look forward to you videos!

Interesting that my wife and I were visiting Alaska on the date you filmed this, I was born in Anchorage in 1947 when my dad was stationed at Ft. Richardso, but I left when I was a year old and never went back until in August. Loved it. We've been watching you guys ever since. By the way, I learned a few years ago that dry vermouth is a great thing to deglaze a pan and make sauce when you're cooking with chicken, pork, or fish. I love it's lemony flavor. Keep it up. My wife and I love your channel. We were so impressed with your 6K mile journey to pick up the tractor.

Oh my gracious those masquitos are freaking insane. ✌️

That mushroom is called the bleeding tooth mushroom. It is edible but only if cooked.

The pie you made looks delicious. My favorite is blackberry! My husband and I took a cruise to Alaska for our 30th wedding anniversary and loved, loved, loved it. We went to Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, and Sitka. We flew out of Anchorage. When we see you in Anchorage, we say we have been there. We love Alaska so much and love the scenery you include in your shows. Keep doing great work with the channel!

That pie looked so good! The mushrooms looked Devine. I'm so jealous.

Wonderful as usual! My choice of pie is coconut cream with real meringue. That raw pie crust was so puffy like a cloud and baked up beautifully. Thanks for sharing your lives with us. I must admit your pets worry me. They seem to have aged rapidly, I just want to reach out and pet them.

A great video, great berries and mushrooms as well as cooking and preserving (the jam looks really nice). 😻4:18 8:55 23:26 28:56🖤 Also, some of the chickens seem to be almost ready for a very important moment in their lives---culling.
