Makeshift solar dehydration...

A great blog I've recently started reading Zero-Waste Chef has an excellent article on dehydrating vegetables and fruit without using a dedicated solar dehydrator.

Zero-Waste Chef is definitely a must read blog for cruising folks and well worth checking out.

Better than the usual...

A better than the usual provisioning article you might want to check out.

Late but well worth reading...

Truth be told, I seldom find articles or blog fodder regarding cooking on boats to be very educational or inspiring. Maybe my problem is I read a lot books, articles, and blogs on cooking and, as a result, I just find the boat oriented output less than exciting.

One of my regular reads in terms of food and suchlike is Serious Eats which is entertaining, educational, and inspirational in the "Boy, do I have to try this recipe!" sense.

As it happens, Serious Eats had a really good article "Life at Sea: The Pleasures and Perils of Nautical Cooking"  by Lauren Sloss a couple of years back on the subject of cooking on boats and you should really check it out.

Really.

Pretty much sets the standard from where I sit.

Well, this is interesting...

Serious Eats talks about cooking on boats...

Some kind of seriously boat friendly...

 Now, is this recipe boat friendly or what?

Why you should be reading Serious Eats on a regular basis

Serious Eats (always a good read) seems to be running a series of pressure cooker chicken and bean recipes that kick some serious ass...

So far they've done Chicken, Lentil, and Bacon stew with Carrots,  Chicken and Black Bean Stew, and Chicken with Chickpeas,Tomato, and Chorizo.

Need I say more?

Some interesting stuff...

Over at the Eat Bacon Don't Jog Blog there's a great link to a couple who set a new record for rowing from San Francisco to Hawaii with an interesting diet...

Very much worth reading.

On being frugal...

I'm a sucker for articles about how to save money on the food front, they always suck me in and most of the time I feel suckered when the article does not provide the answers I was looking for.

Of course, part of this is because most of those writing about saving money are not actually on budgets and it usually winds up being a short list of things to cut out or use cheaper ingredients... DUH! My favorite, a couple of years back, included the advice to economize by trying a California Champagne instead of French...

Over at Boing Boing today they actually had a pretty good one and you should give it a read. Where it does not work for boat folk is gardening is not really an option but otherwise it makes a whole lot of sense.

You should check this out...

Dave over at TriloBoat talks food!

French onion soup...
