Old cookbooks
Recommended by Briana
Aside from the potential culinary inspiration (or cautionary tales), they also serve as a fascinating portal into how people lived and ate (or aspired to live and eat). Find them at library sales, used bookshops, your relatives’ shelves.

The variety of the things they ate was truly WILD. Squirrel, pheasant, rabbit… I have a few of these old cookbooks too that I simply could not stop reading (and therefore purchased) because it was so incredible to imagine. Will I ever cook such things? Possibility incredibly slim.
