After a day of camping trips, fishing, hunting, etc., is slightly better than returning to the camp with a hot meal waiting for you? Well this is easily done with a Dutch oven. A Dutch oven is a large cast iron pot with a lid, the second one pan for eggs and bacon for breakfast, and give your outdoor experience a wonderful meal at the end of the day.
The idea of cooking with a Dutch oven is slow, slow, slow! After thefire for breakfast and morning coffee and you're ready to hit the streets or the flow, you bury your fire with a Dutch oven large flat within this awaits you when you get back! But we will be back in soon!
So we start with the basics. First of all, you need to buy a real fire cast iron Dutch oven. A real "fireplace" which are cast iron Dutch oven, large and heavy, tapering legs and threeup. The cover seals the pot has been an advantage to keep coals and earth. The lid is also a great dish upside down on the morning when cooking eggs and bacon.
There are "modern" Dutch ovens, which are made of aluminum, although these are certainly necessary for the firing of the field. They are easy to heat and tend to warp, and when cooking all day come back to food is the last thing you want a pot full of coals and dirt.
So, after buyingYour new cast-iron Dutch oven in the first place, do what you need is to give it a good wash in hot water and soap. The wash is to prepare the seasoning. Cast iron coated with wax or sealants to preserve the appearance of many tool manufacturers. After a good cleaning, is ready for seasoning.
Spice is whether the new coat made of cast iron stove with oil or grease, and cook in the oven or fire for severalHours. In general, few are up to four hours in order. The more the better. This process can get smoky in the oven, so make sure your vent on. Basically this allows the oil or fat also prepare the metal for cooking and add that special touch to cooking in cast iron.
Once cured, you will not do it again until you rub it over the stove. hot water and soap for good cleaning. Never use a pad "Brillo" or roughAbrasives.
All Right, back to the kitchen. A Dutch oven cooking over an open fire or under development. Be strong with the metal thick, which distributes the heat evenly. So if there is a campfire or coal, or on a hook over a direct heat cooks very evenly covered. It also works with big bonfires, as they tend to very in the amount of heat damage from flare-ups, burn downs, coals, etc..
One of the best and one of my favorite useswith a Dutch oven is buried in the oven with your favorite stew on a bed of coals and earth after the morning meal. Let your food slowly cook all day while you are away the day enjoying the outdoors. Later in this article we have included some recipes for stews all day.
Dutch oven cooking is like any type of outdoor cooking, ie, grilling, smoking, or even cook a hot dog in a campfire, it's almost an art of trial and error. There is an exact science, how long to cook, whatAdd as much spice. Each bonfire give different results, although not compensate for many a Dutch oven. As a general rule, like a house Slow Cooker / Crockpot, the longer the better. Tent long, slow cooked meals are very tender and tasty. The same applies to the Dutch oven meals covered with coal and earth. tender meat, tasty vegetables and herbs all blended after hours of cooking, what more could you want to ask after a long day outdoors!
