I’ve been wanting to blog about Vinegar Rolls ever since I
read Barbara Kingsolver’s Animal,
Vegetable, Miracle. As Kingsolver’s family documents their decision to eat
locally for one year, the beginning is tough. They’re waiting for fruits to
come into season, craving a dessert. I know they would have enjoyed one of my
grandma’s recipes during this lean time.
As a young boy, my dad and his family lived on a ranch in
southeast Arizona. They raised and grew most of what they ate just like
Kingsolver was attempting to do. There were no quick trips to the supermarket
to pick up a missing ingredient or to satisfy a craving. They made due with
what they had on hand. Vinegar rolls are comfort food for our family –
something my grandmother learned to make from her mother-in-law.
