Well, this book, Moveable Feasts \u2013 What to Eat and How to Cook it in the Great Outdoors, supplies lots of information on food but not much on kitchens. It\u2019s about campsite cooking and would be an ideal companion for the woodsy sorts who love mountain biking, climbing, hiking, fell running (can never understand the appeal) and those who like living in a tent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Moveable Feasts is a surprisingly interesting book, even for me who has certificates for enjoying comfortable lodgings and non-inflatable beds. The authors, Amy-Jane Beer and Roy Halpin, have written a veritable handbook for anyone who wants to eat well whilst surrounded by countryside, and there is plenty here that will be useful for the less adventurous who have a caravan in tow.<\/p>\n<p>The book is divided in two, with the first part being devoted to practical insights into choosing energy-giving foods, building a fire pit and avoiding water-borne illness. If you stay well long enough you\u2019ll appreciate reading the second part, which presents nearly one hundred recipes, designed to be made with only limited equipment. All measurements are by volume so you don\u2019t need to cart around a set of kitchen scales.<\/p>\n<p>The recipes are a real surprise and I couldn\u2019t imagine how there could be nearly one hundred dishes made over an open fire &#8211; perhaps one hundred sausages (organic or vegetarian)? Not a bit of it! This is great food and fun to make. How about Sponge Cake cooked in a camp oven (information in this book), or Cheesecake? Thai Curry has got to be the smart face of outdoor eating, and you can invite the folks from the tent next door when you cook Garlic Mussels.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not only food for those who treat their bodies like temples, it\u2019s equally food that kids will love to eat and will probably want to cook. The notes on gathering wild ingredients (no, not Farmer Brown\u2019s bull) are fascinating and will add another dimension to your trip.<\/p>\n<p>Moveable Feasts is a well-written volume with sensible advice to enable you to eat well and safely when away from home. Even I am tempted to go camping&#8230; in the south of Spain next summer!<\/p>\n<p>Moveable Feasts &#8211; <span class=\"text-element body\">What to Eat and How to Cook it in the Great Outdoors<\/span><br \/>\nAuthors: Amy-Jane Beer and Roy Halpin<br \/>\nPublished by: Cicerone<br \/>\nPrice: \u00a314.95<br \/>\nISBN 978-1-85284-534-6<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Cookbook review by Chrissie Walker \u00a9 2018<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know, dear reader, that I\u2019ll write about anything to do with food and kitchens.
