I recently bought an old house, built in the late 30s, which still has the original cold room off the basement. It's right underneath the front porch and doesn't have much insulation besides a heavy wood door separating it from the rest of the basement.
Based on the temperature and climate here, I'm wondering what foods can and can't be stored in there long-term. It definitely stays cold and feels like walking into a refrigerator, but I'm in Southwest Ohio and the winter temperatures have varied a lot... like from 10 degrees to 60+ within a week. Can fluctuation like that affect home canned or dehydrated foods in the cold room?
Any thoughts or advice on this would be much appreciated! Please pardon me if it's a dumb question. I am relatively new at all this and still learning.
