Some things ive tested and used were:
- damper:
mix 4 coups flour, 1/2 tsp salt; add 2 tbsp. oil and rub in, add 1 1/2 cups reconstituted milk powder and mix till firm dough; form round and flat (ap. 1-2") love; bake ontop of not to hot embers on a griddle (you can make one out of green sticks) until done, alternatively, if you have sandy ground make a fire and let it burn down, put the embers aside, dig into the hot sand place the loaf there, hot sand and embers on top.
About half an hour is good, then dig out and brush the sand of. works pretty good.
- bannock:
4 cups flour (or potatoe flour)
2 1/2 tbsp. baking powder
1 tspp salt
1 tsp sugar
bit of oil
mix everything except the oil up, add water till thick smooth batter like light cream;
heat the oil in a skillet, pour in 1" of batter, place on hot coals; after 5-7 minutes skip it over, another 5-7 minutes and it should be good, check if done.
Sounds like work and time intensive but if you decide beforehand what kind of bread you like just prepare the dry mixture and make it in the evening at the camp fire, probably after having youre meal. Youll have fresh bread for the nxt day and it is done really easy.
a ready made dry mixture for pancakes is also easily made out of eggpowder, milkowder flour and a bit of salt and then just needs some water and a pan and voila theres youre breakfast.
Some mor ideas:
If you like noodles, take small ones that arent holoow, saves time while cooking and packing space.
when cooking rice without time pressure,take 1 part rice two parts water, just let it boil for 30 seconds, place a lit on top and wrap the pot with clothes/blanket/sleeping bag (CAREFULL NOT TO MELT ANY SYNTHETIC FABRICS!) after 20-30 minutes youre rice is done and you have saved fuel or can use the stove for something different meanwhile.
If water is scarce, teflon coated pans and pots pay off as you dont need water for cleaning, one piece of toilet paper or some long grasses are enough for wiping it out;
I love instant broth for it is great as a hot drink in very cold nights and can be used to season all dishes.
If you like fish, get youre hands on some stockfish. makes for really good stews and soups and has alot of protein.
hope that might help a little
