Herb, garlic & beer damper

[P@ul]

I was reading another thread and followed a link supplied by Nigel to an Australian outdoor site.

I then found this must try recipe, any one else had a go at Herb, garlic & beer damper, I believe its basically what we know as a bannock but with beer!!

Considering where you got it from, I would,ve been suprised if it didnt here beer in it somewhere.

I didnt realise billy tea had to swung 3 times over the head before pouring.

I'll go and put the kettle on.....

I believe that ideally you want live beer, rather than some pasteurised canned muck... It provides some yeast to help the damper rise.

I may need to try and pack some homebrew for the next Scottish meet...

The BASIC food of the roman empire was a daily issue of beer,olive oil and wholemeal flour.
Rub some oil into the flour,enough live beer to make a dough and bake in a clay oven made with 2 clay saucers. The bottom one with the dough in it and another inverted to form a lid. place on embers and cover with more embers. about 30-45 minutes is enough for a 'one-man 'loaf
