Eldmat

This book is written in Swedish.

This book is about something as simple as it is amazing - cooking over the campfire. There are few phenomena in life that create such satisfaction in us humans as fire, food and nature. It's about being in the moment, letting things take their time and spending time with each other.

The book goes through the most common fires for cooking, such as pagoda fire, star fire, hunter fire and pyramid fire. You will learn to use a frying pan, grill grate, halter and cast iron pot. Alongside the standard techniques, more special methods are described such as cooking on a flat stone or plank, in a smoke tent, directly in the embers or in a pit with hot stones.

In the last part of the book, you will find a collection of recipes with everything from charcoal buns and vegetable soup to reindeer stew and whole chicken over embers. It is only your own taste and imagination that set the limits. Have you tried baking buns in the heat or having taco Friday in the forest?
