If you need to travel fast but you do not have the time to cook, or access to water to boil, you can bring prepared rations.
Here Adnan, a former Airborne sergeant, is showing how to make a bushcraft container for a boil in the bag rice meal.
Once the woven pouch is finished, the second panel on the side can be moved aside and rice, and other things like jerky or curried meat, put inside.
The container is filled partially, then placed in boiling water. The rice expands as it is cooked and fills up the remaining space and presses against the coconut leaf weave and seals it tight... Several pouches can be tied together with the long strands of leaf or secured to a pack. Each contains enough rice for a meal.
If kept dry, the rice will keep for several days especially if glutinous rice is used which helps with sealing the pouch shut. The contents are already sterilized by the cooking process.
To eat, just take a knife out and cut through the pouch. Meals Ready to Eat.
The remains are 100% bio-degradable.
The essence of real bushcraft.
