Rhubarb Custard Bars!
Delicious, tangy, tart. I used a little less sugar than called for but not much—rhubarb is already tart anyway. The custard comes together very quickly—you won‘t be whisking for very long.
This recipe is very similar to the Grapefruit Custard, also delicious. I did not strain anything through a sieve, same as when I did the Cranberry Custard.

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.
Oh so spot on! Completely satisfied my curry lust. I will add a note to include a dollop of plain yogurt & cilantro. #Mtcookbook

I also find another interesting,
The Picnic Cookbook: Outdoor Feasts for every Occasion, by Laura Mason,
Both sounds lovely!
Amusing myself this afternoon paging through this old cookbook that I got for Mother‘s Day. Pearson was the quintessential New Englander - practical, humble, friendly, but not overly so. Reminds me of my grandfather, who was his contemporary. Many somewhat sexist references to men/women in the kitchen, but that‘s the 19050s for you.
Cooking was a different animal then - I will NOT be making anything I have to steam for three hours! 😆
Prepping Chicken Shawarma Salad for dinner tonight after IRL bookclub. It‘s a salad you can make the components ahead and toss together when it‘s time to eat. I‘m craving the lemon tahini dressing. 😋 #Mtcookbook
Little Rhubarb Galette. The crust is buttery and flaky like phyllo dough. The whole thing is delicious. Recipe here: https://www.vermontcreamery.com/products/mini-rhubarb-galettes
