Woman’s Day Encyclopedia of Cookery Volume 8: Pickled Mushrooms (1966)

So we’re at that point again where I’m going through my camera roll and my notes and rediscovering all of the recipes I’ve made over the last year but never got to posting. (Holly Ball 2019 will remain in the vault until the 2020 holiday season).

I guess I’m doing a bit of spring cleaning.

In January.

I love the “cookbooks” within the cookbooks in the Woman’s Day Encyclopedia of Cookery. This volume alone covers peanut butter, onions, and Norwegian cookery–I don’t think I’ve ever tried my hand at a Norwegian recipe, so I may have to revisit this one again.

This recipe is from the “Mushroom Cookbook” that lies within Vol. 8.

I am going to guess that I picked this recipe because I liked the photo (and I like pickled mushrooms in general).

I am also going to guess that I made this to bring to a party…

…because that is not my tablecloth and that is not my bowl.

I don’t remember how this was, but it looks okay, so I guess it was okay. I’m sure it was okay!

It’s a new year, a new decade, and I want to get my mojo back. I need some accountability for the blog. Kind of like when you’re doing Weight Watchers (or whatever the fuck WW is supposed to mean now–Thanks, Oprah) and you do weigh-ins.

I want to post every Monday. Even if it’s just a recipe I want to try or links to other things that I’ve discovered that are cool.

So kittens, I ask of you–totally get on my ass if I don’t have a new post up at some point on Mondays.

I will hate you and love you for it.
