In my defense I'll say only: 1. The cookbook I referenced, which I found in the house where I am renting a room, is from 1986, and I imagine that as the country's health-consciousness has increased the number of cookbooks to fully eschew such blatant use of animal fats has probably also increased. But I am enjoying the 1986 book for its useful introductions to a variety of (as the title suggests) uncommon vegetables. Elizabeth Schneider has written a more recent book called Vegetables A to Z, which includes useful introductions, fun facts, and full-color pictures of every vegetable that we grow plus many that we don't, and I recommend it highly. And: 2. Anything cooked in bacon fat is delicious.jphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03127849845230274728noreply@blogger.com
