Spices and seasonings
For camp kitchen comfort, you'll need to
take a mini pantry with you, stocked with
the ingredients you commonly use. But bear
in mind, your choice of goodies must be
camping-conscious.
Make it tasty It's worth taking a few strongly
flavored ingredients along, as they will
instantly add piquancy to the simplest food.
You can easily mix quick marinades and glazes
by putting the ingredients in a clean glass jar,
securing it with a lid, and giving it a good
shake to combine. Even the most basic
combination of oil, herbs, and balsamic vinegar
will add variety to anything you grill over
the campfire.
Make it fast You may be fortunate enough to
have a convenient supply of fresh fruit and
vegetables where you camp, but if not, cans
and jars of preserved food are really useful.
Remember too, that being outside will sharpen
everyone's appetite, so try to choose dishes
that are quick to cook, or that everyone can
help to prepare and cookâthat way you're sure
to be happy campers.
