Traditional camping fare has always been thought of as burgers and hot dogs, and while these can certainly be fun indulgences, get ready to rethink the possibilities of what can be savoured over the open flame. In Campfire Cookery, Sarah Huck and Jaimee Young introduce us to joyous, inventive recipes that celebrate delicious food and the great outdoors. With chapters on everything from Breakfast to Cocktail Hour to Dessert, we find that every hour is an opportunity to enjoy good food and drink with fireside companions. After a mid-afternoon hike, enjoy some Spiced Currant Scones and Almond Macaroons alongside a Lavender Honey and Fresh Ricotta Tartine. Need a rest from stoking your fire's flames? Indulge in a cocktail and choose between a Babe in the Woods, with Strega, Tangerine Juice and Lime; or a Firefly Royale, with sparkling wine, vodka, and pomegranate juice. In the midst of this, follow Huck and Young's step-by-step instructions for fun activities such as stargazing, foraging for woodland berries, and minding one's fruits of the sea (or, how to clean a fish).
With recipes such as Sweet Cinnamon Beignets, Maple-Glazed Salmon (roasted over a bed of pine needles), and Bombay Spiced Cornish Hen with Orchard Pear and Watercress Salad, the campfire truly becomes not only a blissful escape but a culinary destination.
