Dutch ovens at the Moot

[bilmo-p5]

I've done a steamed sponge in a dutch oven.
I put the mix into a bowl and poured water around it, then put it into the coals.
As long as it doesn't go dry you should be fine.

If you could support the pudding basin off the bottom of the DO, on a trivet or some such, it would probably be ok even if it did boil dry - the DO could cope with the heat and the pudding would bake.

i could do a stew but its only a 4 litre one so not much of it but would be up for doing it if its whats wanted

I hope this link works. If it does it leads to a good video showing temperature control and also leads to further vids with some good recipes. Well that one didn't work. Lets see if this one does. It's the intro video and leads to the rest.

Yeah that one worked. Part 2 is basic recipes and temperature control. Part 3 and further are more advanced recipes and cooking.

This could be great fun I like the idea of the curries and chillies etc

Our cousin in Canada is in a Dutch Oven cooking team that does competitions in Canada and the US, I tried to get her over but cost way too much, what you can do with a Dutch Oven is amazing...

Any more?

 

[Tengu]

Just a bump on this thread

This could work out to be something that we all enjoy so don't be shy in bringing your dutch ovens and knocking something up that we can all put into the communal tasting pot when we have the hangi evening (probably Monday or Tuesday.....)

I'm not going to have time to bump this again so remember remember to bring your Dutch Ovens and cook up something that we can all share in, if enough of us do it there will be plenty as tasters for people especially with everything coming out of the Hangi.

I'm thinking of doing this on the Monday night, Hangi, DO's etc

If you fancy cooking anything a differnt way to contribute then go for it, it doesn't have to be a dutch oven, it's the joining in that counts more than anything else...
