summer kitchen
Detached cooking outbuilding
A summer kitchen is a secondary kitchen in a separate building or detached structure, traditionally used in hot weather to keep cooking heat and smells out of the main house.
Common in rural America before air conditioning, summer kitchens often housed wood-burning stoves for canning and preserving: The old summer kitchen is now a garden shed.
