 Now mate Look at these Units I've been out in a different area where I know these parasols grow earlier on anyway Parasol mushroom, and that's what I'm looking for today We're not gonna need many they're massive So I'm gonna I'm gonna take two or three of these and then we're gonna go and do a little bit of a cook-up and Try something a bit different for this one. They do get quite big, but they soon turn So I don't want to be greedy. I only want to take enough for one meal So I'm gonna leave this here to spread it spores and Feed the bugs And now we're here, and I'm gonna cook them up. That's the ticket Can't even see me. Can you just take this off so I completely disappear just an head and some arms look There we are look Welcome to another video. We've been foraging Specifically for these mushrooms because I knew I know a patch where they grow The reason for this video is early reached out to me and said they were doing a campaign It's the will it swap challenge. They reached out to me and said would you like to come? Could we sponsor a video and would you be keen to to get involved? I said yes, mate because I've been using early for a long time now And I don't drink cow milk at home don't drink dairy at home. I haven't done for for a few years now the early barista Milk is a delight in coffee and absolute delight and if you've not tried it get on board I'm not just saying that because I'm I'm told to say I genuinely that's what I use and that's why I said Yeah, cause I'll do it because I rate their product think it's mint And I thought it was a cool little challenge to do to just come out into woods and use one of their products their dairy alternatives and see if I can cook some up so Challenge accepted early, I'll leave links for it early and the hashtags and everything below this video I can't quite remember everything now that I'm out in the woods But that's as real as it gets and it is we're keeping it real here, and I'm sure they won't mind me doing that So what we're gonna do or what I'm gonna try and do is just a really simple dish Using these parasol mushrooms, and then where I would normally use dairy products We're gonna use early and see if it works. If it don't work. I'm keeping it in Come on Come on We've all got nipples for God's sake, right? Sauce Right Let's get a fire going There's just a top layer and then we're into some Pretty solid ground there, so we're not gonna set fire to it the silky big boy He's a big boy So if you find a tree that's just got a couple of bits near to each other You can put in your bit of timber that you're wanting to cut and you can just trap it in there And then cut away or something even just pull it in and break it off, but if not You can just It'll just odd it for you There you go drop that but we're keeping it in because whatever. I'm only doing little bits So you don't want to be I don't want to be holding that and it in it because obviously if I if I come off there and Digits are off out there. So just use a stick where your finger would be My legs are to one side, but if I miss that it's going straight into the floor I'm not stood up swinging so it swings and it's me if it if it goes past that it's just in floor So I can give it give it some beans There you go Fire starting method of choice. I picked up some silver birch bark on the way in from some deadfall Obviously never clear it never was that red big bit dot there look that ghost Never take it from a live tree obviously Take that and we just scrape the top layer off and it'll reveal this sort of peach colored Layer, and that's where your oils are and the more time you spend doing this the more chance you've got They're getting a flame and getting a flame that'll stick around for a bit So worth putting a bit of time into this bit the birch bark I'll have these little fishers in it that run this way and I always like to scrape that way because you know if can get caught in a mix a bit of a Just a little bit of a speed bump also doubles up as a Priest if you want to be knock if you know You catch you sell a hippo or something that needs Sparking out all silky boy saws have a 90 degree and it's pretty sharp. So You can always use that Slide it down and there you go. It's pretty easy And then we'll use these strips that I cut before So you shouldn't lose it really when you get to this stage and you've got enough birch bark and bits of other clobber but What you don't want to do is put your stuff on too soon Because she'll just extinguish the flame and to get that She's roaring a little bit as you can see now look. Oh, that smell. It's so good to be back at woods me Hestras love these glows man Hestra and the bloomin file Well, me fire dies down a little bit. We'll prep these Okay, that you can take the skirt off We Don't let's see if we can there you go our romantic would that be as a wedding ring there if you just bring you Significant other into big into woods like there you go. Will you barbie be? Little a little mushroom skirt Little babs make love ads get some right meaty chunks out of it. There's not much In life that I find as satisfying as slicing a mushroom With a decent knife is very satisfying big bulbs big bulbs going in Give me a smash Take the little jackets off them. That's a lot of garlic, but I Like a lot of garlic. What could I say? Lodge cast iron pan. I'm just gonna sweat down the garlic Maybe add a little bit of butter a little bit of white wine a little bit of time And then where I would normally finish it with you'd normally finish it with like a single cream I'm using this the earthly Use a single cream they have double cream of all sorts of stuff and the good thing is it doesn't go off like normal dairy product So this is your good you can carry this around in your backpack until Next year So I don't use I don't what's that little? What's up little ghosts thinking about? Just like a ghost. Can you see it or is that just me side tracked? Getting sad jobs funnies I've probably sent this video off too early to be to for them to give it like the green light to see if it's all right and look The head brass of early just watching me like do that on a ghost that probably ain't even there. Anyway You if you use your cast iron pans with respect You won't need to oil them up this like they'll become non-stick naturally through time Garlic lots of it garlic does have a tendency to go bitter If it's cooked for too long, so I'm gonna get the mushrooms in as well miss bachelor that I made it's just a bit of spalted Is it birch or beach one of the bees? I? Made it a spoon festival Illegally because you only allowed us that you really should really carving spoons, but I went rogue Made me send a spatula get some more wood under on my word. It smells good man. Just a little mix of knocked up It's just pepper pepper salt sea salt and a little bit of powdered onion a Little bit of a coating from local farm store. Look at that your beauty Crust keep it keep crust feed that to penguins chunky slices Spot on some time from garden got to get in there look Not too fussed it stalks. You can always take them out white wine If you could smell that if you could smell that so let the alcohol cook off on the wine Add our cream and then we're about there. I'm just gonna leave the bread on the side there in with the ugly Yeah Little bit more salt and pepper If you could smell that you'd be wanting a bit and that's just how it is. We'll have to work this out work away You can see it. Oh well You'll get the idea. What you are you gonna focus just because it. Yes. Look at that Autumn autumn look at that toasted just to gather up all juice nailed it Absolutely nailed it. Let me stalks out time stalks. You've served your time Terrible so hey, this is good focusing Best day ever this in it focusing is working Eating some foraged mushrooms in the woods get that out of shot Get me tote bag. That's me. Yeah I'm a northern monk tote bag that I carry my cast ironing. That's a beauty about living in the UK Our seasons are so defined Just nearly our send at season so like near the end of some of you like a way Or maybe I could do with a little bit of a autumn and then when it comes you like yes Get fire on get thermal duds on We're off to carve a pumpkin or a turnip or a sweet and the ugly it's like you can't tell difference like I was your raw dog some It's like silky and it's got that oaty earthy flavor so it matches perfectly with this it imparts a better flavor than Then single cream would I'm not just saying that because the sponsor in the video. I genuinely mean it like I've I've been honest stuff for a couple of years now and I can't drink it. I'm sure it's not good for tits, but So you can't just be main lining Cream You can if you want do what you want Right, I'm gonna enjoy this without talking to you and then I'm gonna show you the And this is a game changer The the barista ugly barista stuff will recognize that's delicious the bread The bread is toasted, but it's taken on the smoke from the fire. You charge quite a lot of money in a restaurant for this I'm gonna eat this and then we'll get a coffee on and I'll show you the I'll show you how it deals with the coffee So it's for waffling on this one, but turns out Can't make a video without me waffling because people complain. I just prefer it when you just waffle shit. All right Let me be artistic for goodness sake I've ground some beans at home before I came out Beamed they even do little ones. They do the the big ones. Yeah big and these little mini ones One it wonders that you can take out into woods we again The last three ages then put it in your backpack and where you go top tip is what I do Check it check living daylights out of it. It gives you like a Like a creme on the top. Look at that. Get out of town. That was the perfect fire, too. It's just Giving me everything it could there Thank you very much. I already know it's good. It's good coffee. It's good.

I care, you know, I'm into it I use it myself. So I'm happy to tell you about it Well, I had a couple of coffees today. So jitter juice will be getting me writing Why writing worry bucket it gets you did it too much jitter juice Let's let's get this fire squared away So I know that he's on rock hard ground that is sodden and will be just Scattered by the same place So you can't see it. I just sort of fan it out. We don't even want to see a little burnt It's a timber if we can help it literally leave no Trace I've got me layer of soil you tell I'm a gardener and then all gobbins You none the wiser are you where was he fired at her gone even a trace Take knife off You don't want to be going Accidentally going into a garage or whatever with that. I'll better not rattle out that way out cause that'll drive me nuts Big up, but they I mean they I Guess I'd faith in me because they just said do just whatever you normally do and do whatever you want to do like Cook whatever you want just use our products And they said if it doesn't work just show it show it not working and that'll be the journey and that's the that's keeping it real And so I respect that and I appreciate it and luckily it just went perfectly So like hashtag will it swap?
