Do you have any favorite camping breakfast recipes?

Probably, there are no such people who do not like hiking. It is only difficult to get together, but the process itself is very exciting, filled with various adventures and pleasant gatherings around the fire. But in order to feel comfortable, you must first take care of nutrition. After all, walking causes appetite, and given that a lot of effort is spent during a hike, then food should be complete and high-calorie.

Do not forget that you need to take products with a long shelf life. All homemade "soboi" should be eaten on the first day. Everyone knows that a constant attribute of a tourist is canned food. However, do not forget that they weigh a lot, so you have to carry this load on your back. Calculate how many cans you need. Also, experienced tourists are advised to take only stew. This is the meat that will add strength. Canned fish is not worth it. They really want to drink from them, and it’s not a problem to catch fresh fish on a hike. Take with you different types of cereals, if possible, some potatoes, lard and onions, salt and various spices.

Hike will give you new tastes of familiar dishes

And now, finally, a halt and you can start cooking.

Porridge

The tourist's first meal is porridge. Everyone cooks it the old fashioned way: they boil water and pour in grits. But it's better to do so. Soak the cereal in water. Then hang the bowler hat on the fire and pour finely chopped lard there, and later onions. After all this is thoroughly simmered, we throw in the grits. If necessary, then pour a little water, salt and bring to a boil. That's all, super-porridge is ready. Believe me, your friends will be surprised by the new taste of plain porridge. You can use any cereal, but it works best with buckwheat or pearl barley.

ear

How can you not cook your fish soup on a hike, especially since everyone loves to go fishing in the evening. Please note that for a good fish soup, it is advisable to use different types of fish. When the water boils in the pot, throw in the bay leaf. Carefully wrap the fish in cheesecloth and lower it into the water as well. Then add potatoes. It should be coarsely chopped. In principle, nothing more is needed for the fish soup, however, many people add pearl barley. As they say, for an amateur. When the fish soup is almost ready, you need to add 100 grams of vodka to the soup. Don't forget to add spices to taste. And the final touch of culinary art: before serving, take a branch from the fire and put it out in a pot. This will give the ear a special flavor.

Potatoes

Many cannot do without potatoes, well, people do not eat up without it. Of course, you can approach the preparation of potatoes formally, or with imagination. It can be baked in coals. Although it is more difficult, it is still better than corny cooking in a pot. If you cook, then in uniforms!

Stew

Stew is a favorite dish of all tourists. You can, of course, warm it up by the fire and eat it as a hot dish. But this would be irrational. It is best to add it to cereals and soups. After all, then the dish becomes more rich, high-calorie, and most importantly, much tastier. Before serving porridge or soup with stew, throw raw branches into the fire to make thick smoke. Porridge will surely absorb it and acquire a completely unique taste. Believe that your colleagues have never tried such a dish with the aroma of real forest smoke.

Tea

If you forgot to take tea with you, then it does not matter. It is impossible to stay in the forest without this drink. Believe that herbal teas will replace the best Ceylon tea for you.

When cooking on a hike, feel free to experiment, because hungry tourists are omnivores!

So let's be present


1. If you have a duck and a hot-smoked portable smokehouse, this is a plus. A few words about how to smoke game. It is necessary to pluck, singe, gut and rinse freshly caught game with cold water. Next, sprinkle it with salt, pepper both outside and inside and leave for 30 minutes. Pour a couple of good handfuls of alder wood chips into the bottom of a clean, burnt on fire and already cooled portable smokehouse (it can be replaced with branches of bird cherry, which, as a rule, can always be found in taiga). Put a special spacing for fat on top of the wood chips, then a grate, and finally, the carcass of a wild duck prepared for smoking, belly up. Close the smokehouse and leave the duck there for 40 minutes on well-heated coals.
2. We take out the fat from the stew (it is on it that the bigos will be cooked).
3. We put the fat in a cauldron or cauldron, set it on fire, and as soon as the fat heats up well and boils, we send coarsely chopped onions to the cauldron (leave one onion head).
4. When the onion becomes translucent (after 5-7 minutes), we send sliced ​​​​carrots to it.
5. After 7 minutes of frying onions with carrots, chopped fresh white cabbage is sent to the cauldron.


6. Then, pour about 150 milliliters of boiling water into the cauldron, after which, you need to close it with a lid and stew the vegetables at a moderate temperature for about 1 hour, and while the vegetables are stewing, prepare the rest of the ingredients.
7. Cut the garlic and hot pepper into thin plastics, and put them in a separate bowl.
8. Separately, cut the tomatoes into small cubes.
9. Cut the bell peppers into small pieces and wash, and then soak about half a cup of raisins in boiling water.
10. Cut the finished smoked duck into small pieces.


11. After that, fry the game with the remaining onion in a small amount of vegetable oil. We remove the resulting frying to the side.
12. Cut into small cubes raw smoked, or any sausage at your disposal.
13. After an hour of stewing the base of our bigos - cabbage, we send sausage to the cauldron, mix, stew vegetables with sausage for about 10 minutes.
14. Next, two cans of stew are sent to the cauldron,
15. Then, roasted onions and smoked game are added.


16. Everything is thoroughly mixed, after which the cauldron with bigos is closed with a lid and put on moderate heat, where the dish is stewed for another 40 minutes.
17. Further, tomatoes with garlic and hot pepper are laid in bigos.
18. Next, bell peppers with canned herbs. Now the bigos needs to be set again over the fire, extinguish the contents of the cauldron for 15 minutes over moderate heat, after which, sliced ​​​​apples (which are pre-peeled and from which the core is cut out), a few bay leaves and black pepper are placed in the cauldron to taste.


19. Next, soaked raisins are added to the bigos, and now it's time to try what happened with salt (stew and sausage gives a little salt), salt to taste.
20. Stir again very well, put out the bigos under a closed lid on a very slow fire (or better on coals) for the last 30-40 minutes, and finally (if you haven’t been killed by this time by hungry tourists), serve the bigos to the camping table spreading the dish in bowls.
It is worth noting that this dish was prepared for about 4 hours, and real bigos is prepared 2 days before the intended meal. There is not so much time on the hike, but the guys were not at a loss and left the bigos on the coals to reach another 5 hours. The result was excellent.

You can just put it in a mountain stream for 20 minutes and it will wash itself, but you can devote 3 minutes to this activity and use your hand to stir the peas in ice water with your hand, constantly draining the water until the peas are thoroughly washed. Immediately a recommendation to the topic: if you are not on a day trip, and you do not have an hour of free time to cook only peas for your soup, you can soak it in advance for 10-12 hours (for example, overnight) and then it will cook three times faster.
2. When the peas are washed, we go to make a fire and hang a cauldron of water over it, after which, without waiting for the water in the cauldron to boil, pour the washed peas into the cauldron and immediately mix it.

6. Frying is done as follows: we place a frying pan or a lid from the boiler over the coals, and without waiting until it heats up, put the smoked sausage cut into small pieces on it (we need the fat to begin to melt from the sausage),
7. Cut the onion into thin half rings, and pour it over the smoked sausage
8. While the fat from the sausage is being rendered, you can open a can of stew and chop pieces of stew with a knife.
9. As soon as the sausage begins to sizzle slightly on its own fat, pour a few tablespoons of vegetable oil (or fat from an open can of stew) into it, and, stirring occasionally and monitoring the intensity of the heat of the coals (to prevent burning), bring the frying to full readiness.
10. While the frying is cooking, cut the potatoes into small pieces and pour into the boiler,
11. As soon as the frying is cooked and the sausage with onions will have a “fried look”, we remove it for a while to the side.


12. Approximately 5 minutes after laying the potatoes in the boiler, we send the stew there,
13. Next - a couple of bouillon cubes,
14. After 10 minutes, sausage and onion frying is sent to the soup. Around this point, the soup should be checked for salt, and if necessary, salt it to taste.
15. Next, immediately, we throw into the pea soup not very finely chopped garlic cloves and a little black pepper, bay leaf and any spices that you like and that you took with you on a hike.
16. After adding spices, let the soup boil for 5 minutes, then remove it and let it brew for another 10-15 minutes. Toast the bread until golden brown and hurry to pour yourself a soup before your comrades on the campaign completely dare it!

3. While the heads are boiling, we make fish fillets, which we will then cook and eat.
4. Cooking potatoes, carrots and onions. Many boil potatoes and onions whole, but you can also cut them. A matter of taste!
5. We remove fish heads and tails from the pot and throw carrots and potatoes (you can throw potatoes a little earlier, because they cook a little longer). When the potatoes are almost half done, we throw onions and fish pieces, which we will eat directly.
6. After 10 minutes, add greens, salt, bay leaf. We also take a firebrand of coal (preferably birch) and, having previously shaken off the ashes, we throw it in the ear for a minute. It will draw out all third-party odors.
7. A few minutes before the end, add a little vodka. When added, it evaporates and the temperature of the fish soup increases. This helps the fish meat to be softer.
After this, the ear is ready and it can be safely eaten. The main thing is to cook on a slow boil, in many respects this determines the success of the fish soup.

Summer is coming - it's time for vacations, sunny weekends and relaxation away from civilization. Weekend tours are becoming more and more popular, somewhere away from the hustle and bustle of the city. And often, especially when preparing for the first long outing into nature, and even with children, we ask ourselves the question: what to feed this horde running in the fresh air?

Naval pasta has already become a symbol of camp life because of the simplicity and speed of preparation. But the menu can be quite varied. So, everything is in order.

Food storage

The duration and conditions of a summer outing can vary dramatically, and with them the sets of products prepared for a hike or trip will also vary.

Leaving the city for a couple of days or for the first days of a long rally, it is quite possible to provide yourself with fresh vegetables and fruits.

Potatoes perfectly tolerate the road and will be an excellent component of the diet. Late varieties of potatoes do not germinate longer, so they will overpower the entire vacation.

Liquid dairy products are poorly stored on the road, not only because of the temperature, but because of the vibration from the movement, it is better not to take it on the road at all. Butter, even if it has time to melt, will not spread if it is transferred to a container. Cheese for longer storage should choose a hard variety.

Meat products are also very unreliable ingredients, smoked meats are best stored, for convenience they can be cut or twisted in advance and transported in a container.

A great way to extend the life of fresh products are auto-refrigerators, thermal bags and thermal bags: if you put bottles with ice in them, they will last up to three days, the more ice, the longer the temperature stays, at the same time it is a supply of cold drinking water.

Going to nature for a longer period, we will not do without long-term storage products: pasta, cereals, flour, milk powder, egg powder, sugar, salt, canned meat, fish, vegetables.

From bread products, in addition to crackers, various slices and bread rolls are suitable. Cookies, dryers and nuts save as snacks.

If there are certain requirements for the weight of products, dry vegetables (potatoes, carrots, onions, peas), mushrooms, fruits and greens will become the main helpers.

And, since we are going to nature, we should not forget about its gifts. Many herbs that grow underfoot can add vitamins to a salad or soup. We most often use the services of nettle, gout and clover.

Mushrooms and freshly caught fish are a good base for main courses.

For a delicious vitamin tea, raspberry and currant leaves, mint, bergenia, ziziphora are suitable ...

And in almost all forests and in all fields, a wonderful healthy dessert grows.

camp kitchen

Now let's figure out how to cook what we took with us. Usually the first association associated with a camp kitchen is a bowler hat. But there are many other ways as well.

If there is a gas stove in the arsenal, then you can cook and fry anything, the process is no different from cooking at home.

Only in windy weather, the kitchen area must be protected from the wind, for example, on the leeward side, protect it from the stove with a case or move it to the vestibule of the tent.

Another, less voluminous device for a camp kitchen is a grill grate. Any two supports are needed - and the universal plate is ready.

You can also place a pot or pan on the grill.
If there were no supports at hand, it does not matter either. We dig a hole in which we make a fire, and put the grate on top. In this case, even any four metal rods will do instead of a grate.

It is possible to cook a couple of dishes on a fire without having any utensils available. On fairly strong branches, fish, sausages, bread are wonderfully fried ... But if sausages and bread are fried quickly, and the process becomes entertainment even for children, then it is better to fix the fish in the ground by tilting home-made skewers to the fire, it remains only to change them from time to time position.

Stones are used not only for arranging the hearth, but also as a kind of tile. The stones are taken dry and homogeneous, otherwise there is a risk that they will crack when heated. If there are only small stones in the area, they are laid out with the flat side up, and the fire is made directly on them. When the fire burns out, the coals are swept from the stones, and the stove is ready. Large cobblestones are placed directly into the fire, and then it is not necessary to wait until the fire burns out to the end, the main thing is that the stone warms up enough.

On a hike, you can even bake, and not only potatoes in the ashes. Wrap any products according to your favorite recipes in baking foil, bury them in coals, and - voila - you have a camping oven. Depending on the amount of coals, everything cooks in much the same way as in a conventional oven at a high temperature, or even faster.

Crockery on the go

We collect the minimum set of dishes in accordance with our menu and cooking method.

For cooking hot - a pot and / or a saucepan, a frying pan. If you accidentally forgot the pan, fold the baking foil 4-6 times, form a plate, it is quite possible to fry something on the coals in it.

Plates, spoons, forks can be taken disposable, but then for some time after dinner they will have to be carried in a garbage bag until there is a place for garbage. And in this case, you need to take at least one spoon or spatula with you for mixing, as the plastic spoons will melt.

To save space, you can take reusable plastic dishes. It also comes in handy with a variety of storage containers.

It is very easy to wash dishes with sand or soda and salt, you can also take mustard. But if you still intend to use your usual dishwashing detergent, do it away from the coastline so as not to disturb the ecosystem.

Camping Recipes

By and large, if we know how to cook over a campfire, exact recipes are not needed. You can cook any dishes for which there is enough imagination and products. So I'll just share some ideas.

Breakfast/Dinner

  • Eggs: omelet, scrambled eggs, boiled.
  • Any milk porridge, you can add nuts and / or dried fruits. Milk porridge (except semolina) is first boiled in water, and then, when the water begins to be actively absorbed into the cereal, dry milk diluted in water is added.
  • Sandwiches: vegetable, with butter and honey/jam, egg (mass of boiled eggs with cheese and mayonnaise), hot toast with cheese.
  • Pancakes - American pancakes (a cross between our pancakes and pancakes): a glass of flour, a glass of milk, 1 egg or tbsp. spoon of powder, st. spoon rast. oils, 1 tsp. slaked soda, salt, sugar to taste).

First meal

  • Mushroom soup made from fresh or dried mushrooms (mushrooms, potatoes, onions, herbs).
  • Ear from fresh or canned fish (fish, potatoes, onions, herbs).
  • Vermicelli soup (canned meat, vermicelli, potatoes, carrots, onions).
  • Rice soup (canned meat, rice, potatoes, carrots, onions).
  • Pea soup (smoked meats, peas, potatoes, onions).
  • Hunting soup (smoked meats, potatoes, carrots, onions, olives, tomato paste, greens).
  • Soup kharcho (canned meat, rice, onion, prunes, tomato paste, greens).

We often cook something between hunting soup and kharcho: smoked meats, rice, onions, olives, greens.

Another notion is camping chili: canned meat, beans in tomato sauce, onions, greens.

And we also have one extreme recipe in reserve, which has never come in handy yet, but we keep it in our head just for every fireman - field cabbage soup: canned meat, potatoes, onions (if any) and all edible greens that can be found.

Since in field conditions you are unlikely to cook the first, second and compote, the soup can be cooked thicker.

Main dishes

  • Potatoes in any form: boiled, stewed with canned meat, mashed potatoes (if you took a pusher with you), fried, fried with mushrooms, baked, potato pancakes.
  • Pasta: with stew (a classic of the genre), with cheese sauce (butter, flour, milk, cheese), with tomato sauce (cl. butter, flour, milk, ketchup or tomato paste with spices), with smoked meats and fried onions, cold can be added to a vegetable salad.
  • Rice is even more versatile than pasta. Not as popular on camping trips, most likely just because it takes longer to cook. But, if it is soaked overnight in water, then this disadvantage is leveled. From rice, you can cook everything the same as from pasta, plus rice with any canned vegetables or fish, mushroom pilaf.

Hunting, fishing, hiking give the common man a long-lost sense of freedom. What could be better than spending time in nature, away from the bustle of the city, in the silence of a dense forest or on the banks of a calm river, thoughtfully carrying its waters somewhere into the distance, beyond the horizon.

An important and integral part of such free time, of course, is camp cooking. When else, if not for the preparation of simple, natural food in the open air, exchange amazing fishing or hunting stories. And if these stories are also accompanied by the serving of ready-made dishes from caught trophies, we can definitely assume that life is a success.

In general, a camp kitchen is dishes on a fire. And do not be afraid of such Spartan conditions, because this food is prepared simply, no one will make any special demands on it. All you need to know and be able to do is simple recipes and some subtleties of arranging the hearth. The very same food cooked in nature, flavored with the smoke of a fire, will always seem much more delicious than the most exquisite restaurant dishes.

Cooking methods

So let's cook on the fire. This is the oldest method that people have mastered in the process of evolution. Its popularity in recent years is very high, especially among tourists, fishermen, hunters, just lovers of cooking on fire in nature and in the country.

The main options for this method of cooking:

  • on a spit;
  • in clay;
  • in the ground;
  • in coals;
  • in a pot over the fire;
  • on the mangal.

When choosing a place for a future fire, it is worth focusing on areas protected from the wind, away from trees, to avoid accidental ignition. It is better to completely clean the place for a fire from grass, leaves, to "bare" it as much as possible.

For making a fire, it is optimal to use hardwood, fruit trees, juniper. Resinous wood is best not to use. Additional interesting aromas can be achieved by putting herbs in the fire: mint, wormwood, thyme, sage.

A skewer for cooking game, kebabs is best made from straight, bark-free branches

It is necessary to estimate in advance the approximate weight of the meat, which can then be fried and choose the appropriate thickness of the branches. The length of the branches is needed, at least - 1 meter. This will protect your hands from burns. On one side of the spit, you can equip a slingshot from a branch forked at the end. Adjust the opposite end of the skewer with your hands.

You can fry meat or fish, for example, mackerel, on the grill. It is more practical to use a prefabricated structure with a grill, skewers. This is a rather modern way, which is considered unnatural, absolutely unromantic by many "real" tourists.

A bright, exotic way of preparing freshly caught game is roasting it in clay. This is how they cook mainly poultry: pigeons, ducks. Gutted carcasses are coated with suitable clay, then baked in dug holes under a layer of burnt coals.

A variety of meats or fish are cooked in ashes or earth. For this method, you will need foil.

Small game birds are sometimes baked with a whole carcass in hot earth, wrapped in broad leaves or burdock. A fire is lit over a dug hole in which game is placed.

If a lot of participants are expected at the camp meal, you can make a so-called "long" fire from two or three parallel logs.

If you need a lot of coal to fry large pieces of meat, you can build a "Polynesian" fire in a pit specially opened for this occasion. In it, it is easy to bake any game in hot ashes.

Campfire Recipes

What to cook on a fire? Most often, lovers of hunting, fishing and marathon hiking over rough terrain need banal warming. Therefore, the most common camping dish, of course, is soup.

Forest or river soup is everything that can be easily obtained on the road, taken from home, as well as everything that can be shot or caught. There are a lot of recipes for such soups. There are absolutely no secrets in how to cook first courses in nature.

chowder

You can cook soup on a hike from everything that is taken with you or found along the way. Water is boiled in a kettle at the rate of 1 liter per person. Any cereals, cabbage, sorrel, dandelion leaves are placed in boiling water. When the cereal is boiled, coarsely chopped potatoes, chopped carrots, garlic, onions, canned meat or pieces of game are added. Then it remains only to salt, and in half an hour an excellent hunting stew will be ready. A couple of peas of black pepper, bay leaf, and you can already start the meal.

Cooking meat soup on fire

Cut any game into portions. Water is poured into the boiler at the rate of 0.5 liters per person, meat is laid out. The broth is cooked for about two hours. Then you need to add vegetables: potatoes, fried onions, black pepper, salt. Cook until ready. Immediately before serving, add bay leaf, any fresh herbs.

Ear on the fire

A real ear is prepared without cereal dressings and thickeners such as butter, flour. Her broth should be clear. In order to cook a good ear, you need a fish that gives fat, sticky, slightly sweet and tender. The best candidates for this role are perch, ruffs, pike perch. Since fish soup is prepared, as a rule, from several types of fish, catfish, burbot, pike or ide are added to ruffs with perches.

The only exception is red fish soup (trout, salmon, pink salmon, etc.). It is prepared from one type, since it will turn out to be oily anyway.

It is better to cook fish soup from freshwater fish immediately after the catch. The freshest fish means the most delicious fish soup.

How to prepare an ear on a fire? It is necessary to remove the gills, the insides of small fish, without touching the scales. Put it in a pot or cauldron, pour water, season with salt, pepper, onion, cook over moderate heat for about 20 minutes until tender. Then strain the broth through cheesecloth, let stand. Put coarsely chopped potatoes, bay leaf. 15 minutes after the start of boiling, add coarsely chopped main fish (perch, pike perch, catfish). Cook for 20 minutes. Before serving, add finely chopped greens.


Also, soups from offal (liver, kidneys, etc.), shurpa, fish soup with pasta or cereals are traditionally prepared from first courses at the stake.

Hunter's stew

For him, you need any game. It needs to be cut into small pieces, put in a pot, pour water, add simple spices (black peppercorns, salt, bay leaf). When the meat boils, put the potatoes. Cook until ready.

In principle, nothing prevents you from cooking field porridge from a wide variety of cereals in a camping pot. In a large cauldron (cauldron) you can make real lamb pilaf or roast game with tomatoes, eggplant or zucchini.

As for fried game, it is cooked in all the ways described above, as well as fish. The whole question comes down to whether you are lucky with the catch and hunting trophies.
