"The Friends of the Burlington Library spent a delightful and delicious evening with Ellie Deaner featuring a presentation of "Depression Era Foods". The program corresponded with our Burlington Reads event … The Orphan Train. It was was beyond our expectations. Ms. Deaner presented recipes made with ingredients that would have been used during that time and adapted to our culinary senses today. From a quick and easy Corn Chowder to the big hit of the night, Bean and Pepper Salad and a fabulous Irish Bread, patrons left with a full appreciation and understanding of preparing foods with ingredients from the Depression Era. I must also say, she gave us some very helpful hints…one being to salt the pan to cook meat and prevent it from sticking … it works! Thank you Ellie Deaner for a fun-filled, informative and delicious evening."
