Jew’s Ear In London

Maybe it’s not bushcraft/survival in its pure form but it’s definitely useful for campers, hikers, hunters and all sorts of outdoor people. Especially those who are into the ‘leave no trace’ notion. And it definitely is new… to me at least 🙂

So here we go. My fried Rachelle and I are cooking an oriental type broth using tofu, garlic, ginger, noodles, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, chili and hand-picked mushrooms – Jew’s Ear. As you can see, it’s actually a lot of fun. Enjoy 🙂

Wild food

Most wild foods will be terribly tough at this time of year. But with a little help from fire, you can still turn those tough bits into delicious or at least digestible stuff. An open fire would probably be better for such cooking, as I wouldn’t have to rely on an unsustainable fuel, but I wanted to try out my new screen and see how the stove would perform with such an addition.
