Cooking utensils and camping food


Most innovations in the area of camping food are in the way that it is cooked, not really the food itself. Of course, many would take issue with that statement, and cite examples such as soup, freeze dried coffee and other dehydrated foodstuffs as being the kind of innovative solution that has come with the advent of modern camping. You will still need to heat up camping food, however, and so the innovations in the area of cooking are important.

This is especially the case when it comes to ultralight backpacking, or backpacking in climates where it makes sense to try and carry as little as possible – in some cases making up the weight in the camping food itself. New fuels have helped in this, or rather, new uses for old fuels.

Take the Trangia alcohol fueled ultralight stove. Alcohol as a cooking fuel is not really new – everyone knows that it burns well, and could be used to heat up camping food. Some people have already made their own little stoves with soda cans and a bit of luck, but Trangia have taken it one step further an created something that is safe, easy and lightweight.

One thing that any camping food that you take with you needs to be is neutral – so nothing that is high in spice content. There is nothing more unpleasant than upsetting your stomach in the middle of nowhere, even camp sites are not the best place to have any kind of gastric illness.
