      Townsend does a lot of Colonial meals from that era of the United States. That’s about all I got for you.

        Make sure to find other sources before believing anything he says. He repeats a lot of “conventional wisdom” and truthisms that aren’t actually accurate. He also has a pro-christian and whitewashed bias to his retelling of some things. I’d describe his channel more as historically inspired cosplay as opposed to retelling documented historical facts.

          Yeah, he’s not the best source for information of any kind really, good production values though. All you need is a slick production and people will eat up anything you say.

          I agree completely, although OP just asked for channels featuring old cooking recipes, and that is all I recommend Townsend for.

      It’s a little different, more historical content than “vintage” but Tasing History is a great YouTube channel

      Look up Dylan Hollis! He’s on YouTube and tests old recipes - be warned, he brings a LOT of personality lol. I really enjoy his videos and just picked up his cookbook, Baking Yesteryear.

      Glen and Friends Cooking does a lot of recipes from old cook books. He also does cocktails from old bartending books, if that’s your thing. He has a very warm and welcoming charm that makes for a pleasant and relaxing viewing experience.
