A Substitute for Meat

I couldn't resist posting this little tip courtesy of Sister Cora Sell Brubaker of Hollidaysburg, Pa, from the Inglenook Cook Book, 1911. A substitute for meat that "will taste just as good"? Well sister, I guess since the beans, cabbage, and turnips are browned in lard (pig fat) they would taste just as good! I don't think this will be showing up as a side dish on my plate any time soon but give it a shot if you're feeling lard-venturous!

Do you keep lard in your kitchen?

Happy adventuring!
