Food at home and in the wild

[crazydave]

at home i'm stuck with her fish and dairy allergies but love cheesy stuff. In gloucester I havent found a consistantly good chinese or curry house despite living here 5 years now - we both work and I do all the cooking so we do a lot of chicken and pasta.

outdoors I like curry in a bun (half a crusty loaf scooped out and filled with a good curry and the innards as a dumpling - you eat your way down), cheese and nettle pasta sauce or corned beef hash and beans with a good bread are good camp fare as if fresh fish and crayfish. camenbert, baguette and tomatoes make a good simple lunch as well

supper I tend to do something sweet for the night like instant semolina or mars bar in custard.

I do a lot of rat packs as well so I can just bug out and live in the woods for a day or two without worrying about shopping.

Bacon, Eggs (fried or scrambled),sausage, fried bread, black pudding, mushrooms, beans and or fried tomoatoes generally - add other fried food of choice, serve with bread and butter and tea (not coffee!)

Farm Breakfast at my grandparents - when I was a kid - same thing every time:

Cream gravy and bread,

over easy eggs (many as you like),

dry cereal (wheaties) or oatmeal (your choice),

side pork (like bacon without the meat),

turnovers made with cake donut batter, filled with raisins, and deep fried,

raspberry "sauce" with heavy cream.

Coffee that would stand a spoon - no cream.


We ate like horses on the farm - then worked it all off.
four meals a day
five during haying and harvest

dont knock it till you've tried it - I thought the same but the kids love it

you could also eat the mars bar on its own and have vanilla soup.

when I did my first course we were asked if would like a mars bar on day two when we were hungry and miserable - tight buggers split 1 funsize between 14 of us

also instant semolina is good food as you can add wild fruits and make a fruity porridge type affair.

a few hob nobs crushed over a blackberry,apple,plum,rosehip stew makes a brill crumble

At home Meatballs that my wife makes with home baked bread. Other than that I am not really fussed about food when I am at home.

On the trail, Salami slices in potage (potato soup with loads of black pepper) and slices of sweet potato all cooked together, no mess to make, super easy to put together and no waste, you drink all the soup when you are finished. After a hard climb in the cold mountains its about as good as it can get. Finish that off with coffee and then while the embers are dying down a nip of rum.

At home I love indian food, beef vindaloo is a favourite, and living in Manchester we have a massive selection of curry houses on the cury mile in Rusholme. I also love a good plate of steak and eggs

Outdoors I tend to get ravenous and eat anything except peanut butter I too however am a confirmed carnivore and an avid member of PETA (people eating tasty animals)
