Jane Brody's Good Food Book: Living the High-carbohydrate Way | 
Paging through old cookbooks always makes me laugh - foods and dishes that have fallen out of style, name changes and language usage changes (there‘s a lot of "Oriental" sesame oil in these recipes.)
This page amused me because we have shelves in the basement for extra giant cans of tomatoes, ramen noodles, and the Costco impulse buys, which we refer to as "THE LARDER"
For an ‘80s cookbook, this has some solid recipes and good advice.
Tamra I love doing the same! The pictorial and even photo representations of people in the much older ones are a cultural blast into the past. It‘s cringey as in “I can‘t look away.” 🫣 6mo
AlaMich I wonder if larder vs pantry is a regional thing? 🧐 6mo
PatriciaU When I was a child, that space in the basement was known as the “root cellar!” 6mo

Aimeesue @AlaMich Maybe! Or class difference? I grew up in Massachusetts, and it was always called a pantry. (edited) 6mo
Aimeesue @PatriciaU Ha! The house I grew up in, the cellar always used to flood! A lot different from the finished basement we have now. (edited) 6mo
