I hope you enjoy this unusual 200 year old recipe for apple tart and strawberry ice-cream.  Sourcing everything yourself back then meant that they least knew what it was made from.  I wonder if you've ever eaten bugs before without knowing it.

Thanks so much!!

Hi Brittney, Here it is online.. https://books.google.ch/books?id=8xNdAAAAcAAJ&printsec=frontcover&hl=de&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false

Awesome, I am glad it arrived safely.

Hi Gina, It was not like puff pastry that we would have now, it was nice as a pastry but didn't have much puff. I wouldn't use that method again.

Using the slabs definitely makes for better layers and puff than the method that they used back then.

I love watching your 200 years old recipe series! They are my favorite- I am just fascinated at how they worded all their recipes, and at the lack of detailed instructions! I would find it so intimidating to attempt even a basic recipe, as I am a visual learner, and need lots of descriptions! You are a fearless and dedicated cook, for sure! What is the book you are cooking from? I would love to see if I could find a reprint, or maybe even read it online! Thank you for your videos!

I just got my sticker and magnet! I was very confused briefly because I don't know anyone in Australia. I'm very excited! Thank you Ann!!

The "lice cream" made me laugh!!!!

I wondered about what you all thought of the crust of that pie in particular? It seemed as if it was worked an awful lot so I want to know if it was flaky or not? The pastry dough did look excellent. Thanks for another fantastic video!

For anyone living in Europe: Sometimes you find carmine declared as "E120", for example when you buy a bag of M&Ms Crispy. I love strawberries... and eventually somebody told me that strawberry yoghurt contains bugs...so that is not news to me. But the fact bothered me when I was a kid and I wouldn't eat strawberry yoghurt for a while.

Absolutely love this video, thank you so much for all of the hard work. At home my mother always referred to red food colour as cochineal so no surprise there, I think we discovered that they were insects at school. The puff pastry recipe using spread, softened butter, looks really practical for a home cook, will certainly try that hoping that it is faster than the method that I have used previously using slabs of confectioners butter. So happy that you have the book and the courage to use it!

Ohh. Bugs, the potential solution to a lot of problems in the world but likely the cause of a whole heap of new ones...
