It's a gunt table. She's so large now she needs a gunt table.
Eagerly awaiting the rolling gunt table phase followed by a wheel barrow. She will out grow her rolling bariatric walker in no time
Clara (her YouTube channel is called Great Depression Cooking) also made a dandelion salad but I doubt that's what Chantal is aiming for.
Clara was everything Chantal will never be : knowledgeable, well mannered, healthy (she lived alone in her home until she passed at 98yo) and overall adorable.
This. If you grew up in a certain part of the world of a certain ethnicity and had grandparents of a certain age, you would recognize your Nonna in Clara.
She is going to defile this poor woman's memory and recipes.
(Rate me MOTI if you must, sperge incoming).
Clara's channel and others like Emmymadeinjapan have a whole catalogue of depression era foods. Jane and Michael Stern have written entire cookbooks on nostalgic food from the depression through the 50's . No matter the author/creator all of the recipes are for the most part simple and healthy using common, and cheap, staple items.
As usual, Chinny cherry picks the one sodium filled processed meat recipe in a veritable sea of goodness.
If it's the recipe I'm thinking of, it is a type of hot dog stew or hash. Undoubtedly a compromise between old world recipes and a way to satisfy 1st generation children who wanted "American" food. Making ng the most of what was available and affordable. A few hot dogs or smoked sausage, sometimes cooked in left over tomato sauce, and a ton of hearty vegetables meant to feed a large immigrant family where the oldest likely did manual labor. Fast, cheap, and hearty. Using vegetables from the garden most likely on the day that the housewife had to do laundry and a list of chores. None of which Chinny does.
Chinny will naturally consume enough for a family of 6 Degos and it will be more hot dog than veg.
With so much time on her hands, one would think that she could do better research and come up with better ideas, but ripping off a (now deceased) 92 yr old's content is so on brand for her.
RIP Clara
