This month’s “In the Kitchen With Laura” takes us back to hearth cooking in the mid-19th century as the cooks of the Traditional Craft Demonstration area show off their display of cooking tools mentioned in the “Little House” books or the “Little House” Cookbook by Barbara Walker.
Nancy Sorchy and her sister Janet put together a display of cooking equipment she has in her personal collection.
Take a look and find:
- the spider/spyder
- fry pan
- bake kettle/Dutch oven
- trivet
- firkin
- piggin
- noggin
If you enjoyed the video check out all my episodes on my In the Kitchen With Laura playlist.
