ALL THINGS BUSHCRAFT: BUSH COOKING

COOKING OVER AN OPEN FIRE:

Here you will find a selection of recipes I have come across and tried in the field over the years while delving into Bushcraft food, cooking over an open fire. Some are easy to carry/cook bush foods, while others require a selection of good raw ingredients to take with you and have reasonable complications in preperation and delivery. Because of this, I have included a list of cooking kit required, and a gauge of the individual dishes easy of cooking while in the bush.

Many of the recipes have a taste of history behind them, and are not always dishes you would necessarily have on a day to day basis. They will all try to include ingredients freshly available in the UK wilds, or with ingredients available to grow in a European climate. I hope you enjoy experimenting as much as I do with flavours the British Isles has to offer us all.
