Garde Manger

I made this “Garde-manger” to keep my Copa Corona and all the future dry-aged hams and duck and other things that need maturing away from the insects…

It probably translates loosely to the pantry.

I will also be used for cheeses that I plan to make in the future.

It has stainless steel mesh, aluminium lock, and hanging bars at the top of the box.

It is made out of Cedar which will never rot and has a smell that keeps insects away through its natural oils.

 

It will also be a physical reminder of the confinement for a long time to come, the way I have built it…it will also be part of my kid’s inheritance…..slightly over-engineered…

I might equip it with a webcam to take daily pictures and keep an eye on the ageing process…
