Foraging for a Hearty Winter Soup in January

Foraging for a Hearty Winter Soup in January

This time around we revisit an old episode “Foraging for a wild edible winter soup” and attempt to forage a much more substantial winter meal that sticks to the bones!

    Please return to us, we all miss your wonderful content…

    It is nice to rewatch these videos but it gets boring after a while



  2. Alana Mullen on May 30, 2022 at 8:24 pm

    Nice tips! I might try some of these foods sometime after some research of course. Maybe try bulrush in something? I haven’t tried it.



  3. Isabel Ballesteros on May 30, 2022 at 8:25 pm

    what a pleasure to find your own food. I congratulate you on the excellent video and good continuity.

    For a soup thickener you could use the huge taproot under a cattail. Tastes like potatoe, when crushed with water it makes almost a glue like substance its almost pure starch.. Screen out the matter and dry the starch and grind it to powder. Lasts forever. If you do a small pack then you can just dry it and stash it



  5. Elizabeth on May 30, 2022 at 8:28 pm

    I love this! I’d love to see one specific to February. Nice to see you’re making videos again



  6. Channa Brennon on May 30, 2022 at 8:30 pm

    How did you identify the first year growth queen qnnes lace?



  7. Mario Calabrese on May 30, 2022 at 8:30 pm

    Ohoho black walnuts, I’m already sold. Where I am in western NY, one could easily forage literally hundreds of pounds. They are absolutely everywhere and most people here in yuppie vill can’t be bothered. I still have a few from last fall. I got way more hickory nuts still but that’s because I eat them less lol



  8. Spacecadet on May 30, 2022 at 8:32 pm

    Hey man I really enjoyed the vid!! You should try making some queen annes lace preserves and some elderberry syrup! Oregon is one of the best places on earth for wild foraging. If you ever are in the LaGrande/Elgin area there’s lots of camas fields which would be really cool to see a vid on also!



  9. Ding Wang on May 30, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    Beautiful!



  10. Pepe God on May 30, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    Im surprised you haven’t hit 1 million views yet, this is very aesthetic! I enjoyed it.



  11. Kori on May 30, 2022 at 8:38 pm

    Not sure why, but I always assumed that everything died in the winter and there was nothing out there left worth eating.



  12. Daddly Lou Gerera on May 30, 2022 at 8:40 pm

    Oh this is a mighty dandy video you got here mate! Very nice and relaxing to watch. I also learned quite the amount! Thanks much for this man.



  13. HillbillyArtChick on May 30, 2022 at 8:42 pm

    I loved every minute of this, thank you! Those Bull Thistle crowns remind me of artichoke heartsโฃ๏ธ.



  14. Analou Sundo on May 30, 2022 at 8:43 pm

    That looks delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿคค



  15. Swetha Aero on May 30, 2022 at 8:44 pm

    OMG you stole my heart when you fed those carrot tops to those tiny pets you have, so adorable. This is a beautiful, healthy and informative video, I wonder why you don’t have more than a million views. I wish the traffic that goes to nonsensical videos all the time diverts here for good.



  16. Amber Cardot on May 30, 2022 at 8:45 pm

    Southern Oregon here, enjoyed this video.



  17. Joseph Donais on May 30, 2022 at 8:45 pm

    The white speckled floaty stuff detracts greatly from how I would rate my cooking. In a survival situation, I would have eaten that entire pot in one sitting given that anyone else was finished with it.



  18. Almerezzz on May 30, 2022 at 8:46 pm

    Very relaxing video love it



  19. Scooter T Outdoors on May 30, 2022 at 8:49 pm

    Nice work, definitely inspiring!



  20. Vishal Anthony on May 30, 2022 at 8:50 pm

    Foraged food is the food for the soul โค๏ธ



  21. love yourself please on May 30, 2022 at 8:50 pm

    In my head I imagined the bull thistle would be similar to artichoke because it looked very similar to an artichoke heart



  22. oranye Oranye on May 30, 2022 at 8:52 pm

    Ohhh so relaxingโคโค๐ŸŒน



  23. Iyxan23 on May 30, 2022 at 8:52 pm

    I really love these kinds of videos, keep it up! ๐Ÿ™‚



  24. Breaking views uk on May 30, 2022 at 8:53 pm

    Amazing ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿ˜ฎ



  25. Md. Mohibullah Khan on May 30, 2022 at 8:53 pm

    You need to work on the sound quality of the videos. Other things are okay.



  26. Ilias Killmister on May 30, 2022 at 8:53 pm

    Is your book applicable to europe?



  27. Nona Shibusa on May 30, 2022 at 8:54 pm

    These little birds need a better enclosure, my friend. Maybe let them walk on something that hasn’t got holes in it, for example? I kind of feel bad. I mean, they give you their eggs already, least you can do is make sure they’re happy.



  28. Titus Sturgeon on May 30, 2022 at 8:56 pm

    Why he using scissors on his eggs!?!?!



  29. Joseph Donais on May 30, 2022 at 8:58 pm

    I haven’t yet seen your cat tail episode though here I would mention it as a thickener for soups and stews and as a binder for simple breads. Were it not for celery like stands of fiber I would be tempted to say it’s root is all starch.



  30. Jasmine Sayavong on May 30, 2022 at 8:58 pm

    This type of video is my top favorite kind. I love it when people picked the wild edible plants then show us how they cook it then eating it and telling us how it taste. It’s so fun! I love foraging too.



  31. Soig Nora on May 30, 2022 at 8:58 pm

    This is the first video i have seen on your channel and god… you deserve more recognition, the camerawork is amazing and i love the structure of this video! i’m not sure why but watching this makes me feel very calm and relaxed, amazing feel!

    i love this! thank you.



  32. Sparrow C on May 30, 2022 at 8:59 pm

    Why do I feel like I’m watching someone max out foraging on sdv



  33. Curtis Bolen on May 30, 2022 at 9:01 pm

    Love the guinea pigs



  34. Stacy Rosa on May 30, 2022 at 9:01 pm

    That’s a freaking enormous nut press!



  35. Lizanye on May 30, 2022 at 9:03 pm

    Iโ€™d like to see you make oil with those walnuts and then sautรฉ some veg ๐Ÿคค



  36. Jay Hawthorne on May 30, 2022 at 9:03 pm

    This is TV level work man.. loving it so much



  37. Allen Dean Huscusson on May 30, 2022 at 9:05 pm

    Try adding common malow it want be so thin .



  38. rob inn on May 30, 2022 at 9:05 pm

    Someone give this man a bigger pot!



  39. Trackmark on May 30, 2022 at 9:08 pm

    This is the content I was looking for, so glad I found you. ๐Ÿ’•



  40. Naturally NorthWest on May 30, 2022 at 9:08 pm

    So glad I found this channel! I loved this video. I had never seen the technique you used on the quail egg where you cut it open. I’m going to use that. Thanks for the content and happy foraging.



  41. Kat Hartrum on May 30, 2022 at 9:10 pm

    I would love a guide book but its sold out



  42. Nessa C on May 30, 2022 at 9:11 pm

    I havent checked all your videos but I hope you can show all kinds of edible weeds here in pacific northwest, identification and preparation. Most importantly comparison of their posinous counterparts.



  43. PoopFartLord on May 30, 2022 at 9:13 pm

    This is really good mate. I’m from Australia and as much as I love our environment, one thing I think we are missing (at least where I live) is bloody water. Rivers, creeks and lakes add so much interest to scenery and are so much more conducive to wildlife. Maybe it’s because I’m tired of seeing the same old stuff but I really appreciate the natural beauty of where you are situated; that creek looks simply awesome.



  44. PogCameroon on May 30, 2022 at 9:14 pm

    Very pog!



  45. milanetc on May 30, 2022 at 9:15 pm

    Love your channel. Wow. Go you! So inspiring.



  46. barbara reid on May 30, 2022 at 9:15 pm

    So sad, the book does not deliver to Canada??



  47. Joseph Donais on May 30, 2022 at 9:18 pm

    As a kid I would roast, (roasting brings more flavor), SMALL fish, frogs, rodents, birds, snakes, lizards and near anything that is otherwise not worth my time. I would then dry over the fire and grind them, bones intact, (being selective, omitting some bone), into a powder and use that as you do here.



  48. Rhetta Jack on May 30, 2022 at 9:19 pm

    Winter is good or even late winter the evil garlic mustard is tatier when it is still cold, once the heat sets in, it get so bitter.



  49. Declan Kim on May 30, 2022 at 9:19 pm

    foraging isn’t a noun



  50. Miss O.P. on May 30, 2022 at 9:19 pm

    I think if you made the nut meat into balls it would have a better color. Maybe mixing the nutmeat, and dried mushrooms. That way you have better color
