There was also the problem that cities burned down a lot and you didn’t want cooking fires in apartments -
And agree!
Recipe:
Get an onion. Put it in the oven (or tuck it into your campfire coals). You can wrap it in tinfoil if you wanna keep it moister but it’s not strictly necessary, the outer skin is a natural wrapper.
Bake until it’s soft. Scoop out the insides and eat them.
Also, we are having meats,cheese, and bread for dinner on a board and calling it charcuterie just to feel better about it. 😂
(Not me, but definitely something I avoid risk factors for getting!)
Onward! To a more leftovery tomorrow!
Sometimes our grandparents actually did everything .... because they were poor and didn't have a choice, and their health suffered for it.
Though my grandmother who was a not-well-off widow with small children and took in ironing and boarders to make ends meet still had a monthly cleaner.
This is part of why I love Eva Ibbotson’s novels. Not the main reason, but a significant part.
Mine tends to be chaos leftovers fridge raid :)
Thanks for sharing that :)
Potatoes and onions hate each other, and if stored near each other (or worse in the same enclosed space) both start to rot.
That, and a million mouths to get onions to.
We don't eat what we grow in our backyard anymore. Someone else grows the onions. And if their onions can't get to your town, due to someone bombing the rail lines, then you don't have any onions.
Wartime shortages are weird beasties.
I've managed tomatoes, peppers, and herbs.
(I hate cooking.)
thank you for sharing it again <3
Or
Anywhere i can point 👉
But your car will smell like cooked onion, so dunno if that's great.
(We did Car Dash Oven with heating pre-made cinnamon rolls in their tray while we shopped.)
