Recently we visited Amish country in Pennsylvania, where we were kindly invited into the home of a Mennonite family, who treated us to some home-cooked, traditional Amish, or Pennsylvania Dutch, comfort food! A very special thanks to Katelyn and her lovely family for such an amazing experience!

I grew up with all of these foods and I’m wondering if we like this stuff now bc we grew up with it 😂😂 I’m from the Poconos area. We made dumplings with bisquick mix so I like them more and it’s quicker obviously than homemade noodles. Not a fan of scrapple myself. I like the unsweetened version of Lebanon bologna. I know about shoofly pie and coffee crackers but never tried it. Idk if apple butter is native to our area but my gram made it every year.
I live about an hour and a half northeast of this area, but having a grandmother who was raised Pennsylvania Dutch, and has passed the recipes down, has allowed me to enjoy all of these classics.
Ollie casually dropping Plato’s theory of forms when talking about Spam is the content I subbed for.
Professor Pepper… Dr. Pepper elevated
My grandma loves those beet eggs!!!!!!! I’m a northerner but both sides of my family hailed from the Carolina’s … and those Dutch eggs are southern eggs too. (Dodo eggs) pronounced doh -doh
I love scrapple , Philly has vegeterian, beef, pork and turkey versions of scrapple
The fact that yall got so close to the point where Ollie is lying down in their house, says a lot! Food is love and you had that in spades!!!
You need to come to the FINGER Lakes of NY, particularly between Keuka and Seneca Lakes!!! Within an hour in any direction you will find gems like Watkins Glen state gorge!!! Mennonites have brought home cooking to the public, and there's the Windmill farm and craft market!!! At Corning Glass you can make your own glass creations! COME to NY in America! We even have a road named JOLLY!
How can you go to Shady Maple and this home and not have a whoopie pie!
Scrapple needs to be cooked until super crisp and served with KETCHUP!
My mom did the coffee soup as a child, but they called it soakies
My family is German and from the Appalachian area. I grew up with so many of those foods.
My family on my mom's side is Polish American and my grandfather was first generation born in the USA (Ohio). My mom cooked mostly Polish food at home and everything you guys ate today was the food I grew up on. Even in Kindergarten, I took cabbage rolls, sauerkraut with sausage with fried potatoes and onions to school. We even ate Lebanon bologna sandwiches with salami and mustard. There's even a cold cut called Dutch loaf and that made a good sandwich too. On Sundays my grandfather would make duck blood soup (we kids skipped this for sure). My aunts and uncles ate the hell out of it and loved it. They also ate head cheese. When you grow up poor on a farm, you don't waste ANYTHING!
Real Amish would not have allowed you into their home with cameras. They also would not have modern stoves, microwave etc. Maybe Pennsylvania Dutch Food needs to be the title.
Eating that beet pickled egg with mayo, Ollie looked like Stan Laurel of Laurel and Hardy fame, which is a bit ironic since Hardy's first name was Ollie.
The coffee soup reminds of an elderly British fellow I once knew who would pour tea, instead of milk, over his breakfast cereal.
Nothing like Amish comfort food! My family used to go to Sugar Creek in Ohio’s Amish Country every summer. Wonderful memories!! 💜
What an enjoyable video. Everyone got along so well and was so respectful. The food looked delicious.
For those who hve never made their own sassafras root ferment it tastes pretty strong to say the least. Not like a barges whatsoever.
If someone says "This is grandmas secrete recipe" I am absolutely trying it no matter what it sounds like from the ingredient list.
Plz read- dad was born in 1927, and I never knew why he ate crackers n milk all the time..until now- he had to then. I've always wondered but could never really figure it out..this has to be the link
Gentlemen of Jolly…
Have respect for the ladies & Gentlemen who invited you into their home to sample home made delicious delights… and TAKE OFF YOUR HAT at the dining table!
They really must have liked you to not have pointed out your rudeness from the start.
Sit down to eat & take the hat off! New York Yankees be damned! 😢
I'd love it if you take this Amish family to experience Korean food.
My mom spent most of her young life in Lancaster, and she introduced us to many of these things when we were growing up, both at home and in PA. Even since she passed, we still do pork and kraut every New Year. Btw, one thing I'd like to see more of is you guys eating with your hosts instead of just in front of them while they watch.
one of my favorite meals is pork and sauerkraut. I make it all the time.
For me that oven was normal size LOL and I'm not american
My GiGi had a Penn Dutch, depression apple pie that contained crackers not many apples . . . Just juice I think.
So my great grandfather used to break up bread or crackers and pour fresh cream on top.
This should be how you tour America!! Not gas stations and fast food. You should be visiting fans and trying their best home cooked meals
These poor guys burning their mouths ……..you can't taste after that ! 🙁 Pennsylvania Dutch use a lot of carbs & sugars in their meals which is not good, but I would assume because the families are more active, it would not affect them as much. You use the term Amish under your video, however the people cooking and serving you are Mennonites and they are not Amish. So, you are cooking the food of Pennsylvania Dutch people I will assume. And, the Mennonites I have been with, were more traditional garb and some of these woman do not. Great Experience. My sister went to Pennsylvania Dutch country and she was so interested in their quilting and the use of black, that they spent a lot of time explaining and showing her quilts, even inviting her to someone's home for pie ! She purchased a quilt that wasn't quit done, paid for it, and when she received it in the mail, there was a note about how much they enjoyed her questions, kind words, and visit that they gifted her the beautiful quilt and return her money ! My sister proudly displayed this in her home. And, at the same time, my sister sent the woman a picnic quilt she made for her and her new born daughter for family picnics. It was a lovely exchange of gratitude, 🙂 My sister did say the food was good, but very fattening and sugary ! 🙂
fucking hilarious. i have seen you in the finest restaurants, and this peasant food. your reaCTIONS ARE SO FAKE.
Noodles are egg and flour 1 egg 1 cup flour etc. anyone can make good noodles… 🤷🏽♂️
The eggs weren't done they get purple right through I make them all the time put the beets in the jar they are assume!!!
Amish people don't have cars or microwaves they are not true Amish….. 🤷🏽♂️🙄
Wait these are real Mennonites…????? I thought they are supposed to SHUN NON-Amish and have NO modern appliances or even electricity…???? WTH? I see running water, electricity and modern comforts?!?!? a MICROWAVE??? and gasp! Jewelry?!?!? and modern western clothing? where are the sac dresses and white bonnets?
Don't you just love these two.? I've watched them with the students so much fun.
I have German ancestors, and grew up in the midwest. It's a little different, but this makes me hungry. They're right, food is a love language.
The way Ollie says Taco gets me every time 😂
We live in Wyoming MI, we make sure we get down to Shipshie at least once a year for some great food and a big warm pretzel dipped in cheese. Love the Amish
I LOVE beets and beet eggs, one time I ate so many Amish beet chips that I thought I was dying, and peeing blood, went to the hospital, and finally put 2 and 2 together and realized it was the beets 😂😂
My family has a long tradition of "coffee and sandwiches" you make your coffee with milk and sugar, and DIP your sandwich in the coffee and eat. The sandwich is either miracle whip, liver sausage and American cheese or just miracle whip and cheese on white bread, dipped in the sweet coffee. The salty miracle whip and liver sausage works with the sweet coffee. I've never met anyone else that has done this if so let me know
That kraut n pork needs some pigtail dumplings….yummm.
12:15 anyone else think of the episode where Joey eats the English trifle with minced beef sauted with peas and onions, "Whats not to like! Frosting; gooood. Ladyfingers; gooood. Beef; goooood"
Love Ollie u can count on him to tell the truth lol
Hey🎉
