Savoury layered meat stews in the Dutch Oven. You put some more glowing charcoal on the cast-iron lid to heat the meat properly. The first hungry campers are queuing up and they already scent the crunchy bacon that sizzles on the Griddle and Fire Bowl. The potato gratin is just ready. At the same time, you take a close look at the steaming cake inside your Ring Cake Pan and call everyone for the meal. The percolator with the hot coffee hangs over the fire ready to go and the freshly brewed tea streams from the kettle into the mugs. No matter whether beginner or proven campfire chef: With the cookbook “Outdoor Cooking” Petromax provides you with reliable support to learn and experience the variety of original cooking with fire off the home stove.
In his first English Petromax cookbook “Outdoor Cooking” the German campfire pro and author Carsten Bothe shows you everything you need to know about cooking and baking under the open sky. The many possibilities offered by Dutch Oven, Fire Skillet, Loaf Pan and co. are varied and will amaze you and your campfire crew. German farmer’s breakfast, cheeseburger, tortilla lasagne or pork roast with crackling, mug cake or cherry bread pudding – all these recipes are prepared quickly and easily. As soon as you have mastered the heat there are almost no limits to further cooking and baking adventures.
This book offers you a wide range of more than 80 recipes for different meat and fish dishes, soups, stews, bread, cake, pizza, sweet and savoury casseroles as well as snacks. These have all been selected especially for you from the original German Petromax recipe books “Draussen Kochen” and Draussen Backen” (awarded with the Gourmand Cookbook Award 2019) and are now for the first time available in English.
In addition, expert chef Carsten Bothe has another card up his sleeve. The tasty recipes are skilfully and vividly complemented by helpful tips and interesting facts on handling Petromax products and fireplaces. On 144 pages the cookbook with dragon power provides you with varied instructions for traditional German recipes as well as for refined recipes for the year-round outdoor kitchen.
