Ancestral Kitchen

What plant was allegedly first discovered in Ethiopia by a goat, boasts an almost 270billion USD market worldwide, has almost 10,000 shops dedicated to it in the UK and over 35,000 in the US, and you very likely may have partaken of some time already today? That’s right, the elixir of which Benjamin Franklin, the American statesman, author and inventor wrote, “Among the numerous luxuries of the table…coffee may be considered as one of the most valuable. It excites cheerfulness without intoxication; and the pleasing flow of spirits which it occasions…is never followed by sadness, languor or debility.” In this episode, return guest Rob, Alison’s husband, shares with us some of the history and processing of coffee. Types of coffee plants even before the roasting process, sourcing and of course, favorite brewing methods. Top up your cup of bean juice and maybe add a little raw cream, and let’s get rolling.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

Hands down the question we receive the most is:How do you have enough time to cook this way?Children, work, families, friends, community commitments, earning money, doing life's admin. It all adds up, and before we realise the time we need and want in the kitchen has just disappeared.If you have ever thought, I just don't have enough time to do this, the next 90 minutes will help you.Even though we'd love to, we cannot promise to double your kitchen time. What we will do is share practical, real-life strategies that we both use to prioritise the time we spend on food and pass on the many ways we, over our shared 30 years of cooking ancestrally, have learnt in order to efficiently and effectively get what we need to and want to get done in our beloved kitchens.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

Traveling and vacation is so much fun until you get the bill for all the meals you ate out, and you get a tummy ache for all those weird ingredients your body just didn’t like. If you have allergies and food sensitivities it’s even more difficult, finding somewhere safe to eat is just about impossible. We have both found that when we travel we just do better if we bring a lot of our own food with us. In this episode we are going to talk about our best tips for preparing, what kinds of food we bring, how to pack tools and what tools to bring, how to keep food cold on the trip, and just some of the things we have learned traveling over the years - traveling with kids, and with food and with special diet considerations. This episode is a really fun one for getting ready for big trips, but also great for just thinking about going out and about for the day, if you're looking for things and ideas for taking picnics on the go just for an afternoon.We also included seven tips from Bob Jordan, Andrea’s dad, who does catastrophic damage restoration in homes for water, fire and mold. He has some great tips for travelers to set you on your way and ensure you come home to a safe and happy home. Those tips are available for download for all listeners at ancestralkitchenpodcast.com/downloads. For supporters of the podcast there is an additional download as well; you will get Andrea’s menu from her most recent week-long trip, with 6 family members.

What pan should I use to bake my bread? Metal, ceramic, glass, dutch oven…there are so many out there. What are the differences? What about non-stick? What temperatures can I use for each one? How can I stop my dough from sticking? How can I work out how much dough my pan will take? And what about pizza? How can I make the best one at home?These questions, and many more, are answered in today’s episode with expert wholegrain sourdough baker and dear friend of the podcast, Elly from Elly’s Everyday. Prepare for over an hour of beautiful sourdough bread geekery that will enhance your baking, however you do it.And if you want more, Elly kindly stayed on to record an aftershow where we answered supporter questions including how to create the best crust, talked even more about loaves that stick and shared tips on getting pizza to rise.

George Orwell writes, “If you look up ‘tea’ in the first cookery book that comes to hand you will probably find that it is unmentioned; or at most you will find a few lines of sketchy instructions which give no ruling on several of the most important points. This is curious, not only because tea is one of the mainstays of civilization … but because the best manner of making it is the subject of violent disputes.” In this episode I got to sit down with Meagan Francis, a supporter and friend of Ancestral Kitchen and veteran podcaster herself. She is the host of The Kettle with Meagan Francis, which is a lovely podcast, and author of “The Last Parenting Book You’ll Ever Read” which just came out this spring. Meagan also owns a tea and variety shop and in this episode she shared with me some surprising and interesting tidbits on the history of tea and how it was introduced to Western civilization, some of the finer points of sourcing and brewing, where some of our familiar tea traditions came from and what High Tea really means.We had so much to talk about that we overflowed into an Aftershow which will be available on Kitchen Table Chats, our private podcast of bonus episodes for podcast supporters. As a thank you to our podcast supporters for keeping us on the air, Alison also created a new recipe for Spelt Buttermilk and Honey Scones, which is available where supporters can log in to the podcast downloads section of our website. Sorry Orwell, no violent disputes broke out today, but I learned a lot. Pour yourself a hot cup of brew - whether you’re doing the dishes or just gazing across the lonely windswept moors as you listen - and let’s get into it.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

Bone broth, sauerkraut, milk kefir – fundamentals of an ancestral diet and foods that we know do us good.So what do you do if actually they're making you ill?Histamine is a word that most of us have heard of and, thanks to the proliferation of health news, were also probably aware of histamine intolerance.In this episode we will deal head-on with histamine and how it interacts with an ancestral diet. We'll explain what histamine is and the problems it can cause. We'll explore which staple ancestral foods are high in histamine and discuss alternatives that we can turn to if histamine is an issue for us.Alison will share her own journey, eating low histamine for much of last year and, most importantly, we'll talk about how is possible to heal from histamine issues whilst continuing to eat traditionally.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

It’s almost May, the month which the early medieval Anglo-Saxons called thrymilce, because according to the Venerable St Bede, “in that month cattle were milked three times a day.” We don’t know if you’re milking your cow three times a day, but ‘tis the season for lots of fresh and available milk. What to do with all that milk? - and if you don’t have a cow, what to do if you have access to raw milk and want to make staple value-added dairy products in your home, like cottage cheese, sour cream and yoghurt?The dairy products in this episode are all delicious, high-value, low failure-risk, and don’t require expensive equipment, multiple gallons of milk or a cheese cave. Almost all the recipes can be made with a low-heat, vat-pasteurized milk, as well as with a raw milk. We’ve linked every recipe we talk about (and more!) in the show notes, and as an extra “thank you” for keeping us on the air we have created a PDF in the downloads section for podcast supporters at the $12 and above levels, with all these links and some additional recipes as well. Take a seat on the milking stool, get a glass of fresh warm milce, and let’s talk home dairy.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

Combining gluten-free eating with ancestral eating need not be daunting. Today I talk with Rebecca Zipp, a beloved podcast guest and supporter. She's been gluten-free for the last 16 years – bringing her husband and her children along with her. In addition, for most of last year I ate gluten-free. Between the two of us we've a lot to talk about!In this episode, we cover:Why Rebecca went gluten-free and the impact it's had on her.Examples of gluten-free breakfasts lunches and dinners.The mass of gluten-free carbohydrate options, and how we use themThe basics of gluten-free breadmaking...and Rebecca finishes the episode giving words of wisdom from her 16 years of gluten-free eating.And remember, gluten doesn't necessarily have to be an all or nothing: making one of your meals a day gluten-free or several days a week gluten-free or going gluten-free for a short space of time can make a big difference to digestion. So even if you don't have to avoid gluten all the time the things we talk about in this episode will help lighten, change up and inspire your kitchen.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

What are some traditional foods we can eat for breakfast, and do we have examples of ancestral breakfasts in history? In this episode Alison and I got together to talk about what we eat to start the day. We included a variety of “types” of breakfasts. First, we start out with fast breakfasts, things you can make very quickly. Whether you’re going to school, you have kids going to school, or you homeschool - there’s not a lot of time in the morning typically to linger over a long breakfast. We then included some longer prep but hands-off breakfasts. Things you could make if you were getting up early; you could start it simmering or baking and then head off to chores and come back to a finished breakfast. Next, we covered some portable breakfasts. These are things you could take in the train, in the car, I guess in your carriage, and get out doing chores or heading into town.We have a lot of delicious breakfasts here and went way over the number of breakfasts I intended! We got some really delicious ones for you! I am looking forward to hearing your feedback. For supporters of the podcast, I put all my notes including all the breakfasts Alison and I discussed here in the download section for podcast supporters. The resources for everybody listening to this episode are awesome, there are a ton of recipes linked in the show notes, so go down and grab those links so you can make all these delicious meals for your family!* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.

The cost of eating an ancestral, nourishing diet, vs the cost of eating a conventional, supermarket diet: people are already stretched to the limit on their grocery budgets, so how can we ask them to spend even more on buying more nutritious or local food? Even if it’s important to them, what if the dollars literally do not exist? How are we to eat? These were the questions burning in my mind when I sat down with the Nourishing Traditions cookbook to make a list of ten easy, favorite recipes. I wanted to see how much more expensive they were to make at home with organic ingredients vs buying the cheapest factory version available, to help people figure out how they could accommodate them into their budget, but what I found astonished me. I was not prepared for the fact that almost every single recipe I calculated was actually cheaper to make with local or small-farm, grass-fed, ancestral, organic ingredients. I couldn’t put this episode together fast enough, I was so excited to share it with you!I got rather overambitious and included a total of 20 recipes, five of which are great examples of the local version costing slightly more, and they did not all fit in this episode, so Alison and I recorded an aftershow which is available on our private podcast, Kitchen Table Chats, which is included in the Companionship level of support. Thank you for supporting the podcast and our work! I also dropped all my notes, including my tedious calculations of ingredients, into a document and uploaded it for supporters to download. This document has the titles and page numbers and price breakdown for almost every recipe.

What is ancestral eating?After three years of recording podcast episodes, we thought it was about time we tackled this topic head-on. Because, although the word ancestral has become much more mainstream since we started, there is still much confusion about eating and living this way.In this episode you will first hear us talk about what ancestral eating isn’t (including how it is different from eating carnivore or paleo) before we get onto defining what ancestral eating is. We will explain that it is not prescriptive, it's a philosophy and we will share what it means, practically, in the kitchen.We both eat ancestrally, but our individual diets and kitchens look different we will outline that for you before talking about Who's Who in the ancestral eating world and giving you accessible and fun ways to move forward in your own ancestral kitchens.Episode 100 is a huge milestone for us two ladies who love cooking and eating this way – please do share this episode and our podcast with anyone who you think would benefit from what we are up to.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *One Earth Health make the grass-fed organ supplements we use and trust.
