If you end up planning a protracted prolonged wilderness rafting journey, the menu turns into a troublesome chore of organizing perishable meals objects. You cook dinner the objects that may spoil first. So veggies and herbs go first. That is the straightforward half. Dessert, alternatively, is a troublesome meal plan.
I had ice cream on the East Fork of the Carson River on day two, but it surely was significantly chilly outdoors anyway, so we have been capable of dry ice a small cooler and sit within the scorching springs consuming gelato and drink champagne. That was straightforward. However when you find yourself on a Klamath River journey on day 5, in 100 diploma warmth in August, ice cream is unquestionably not a alternative.
I got here up with this very tasty deal with on a protracted prolonged river rafting trip just a few years in the past. Pack almonds and cashews in a dry field and do not open it till you're able to make this. Yummy nuts!
CANDIED SPICY NUTS
2 lbs nuts (almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, and so on)
butter (sufficient to coat the nuts)
half of cup brown sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
2 pinches of chili flakes (to your liking)
1 small sprig of rosemary (depart complete; simpler to take out when executed)
salt (non-compulsory if salted butter is used)
Warmth a dutch oven to medium warmth. Throw nuts into the dry dutch oven and slowly toast by stirring. You'll scent the nuts toasting. It will take a minute to three minutes relying on the dimensions of your nuts. (Do not let the nuts get black on the perimeters or it would style burnt) Add butter to cowl the nuts. Proceed to stir. Add sugar, cinnamon, chili flakes, rosemary and salt. Stir. When the sugar melts, take away rosemary spring and take dutch oven off of warmth and proceed to stir till it begins to clump. Let cool and break up any giant items. Serve.
Variations: add toasted oats after the sugar melts. Add raisins or every other dry fruit (cherries, cranberries, prunes). These variations will be saved in ziplock baggies and served all through the day whereas on the river. Think about munching on this vegan deal with whereas driving on the rafts and having fun with the surroundings. Add some chocolate chips into the baggies... aahhh, life on the river is grand!
