Cooking event of a special kind: Everything takes place outside and on the open fire in the. Some of the ingredients are first collected and processed by the participants themselves. There is a multi-course menu with the special smoky touch. Food directly from the embers or from the Dutch Oven, with which you can bake, roast and cook!
Cooking over an open fire has been a fascinating affair for thousands of years. Especially today, many people associate the smell of smoke and the crackling heat of the embers with deep-rooted longings. It is not only Western fans who find the food prepared in this way particularly tasty: vegetables from the embers, fish nailed to the board and smoked warm, meat dishes from the rustic Dutch Oven that once hung on the settlers' covered wagons in North America. But also sweets can be prepared at the open fire...
Anyone can light a campfire , but preparing a multi-course meal for many people is a completely different matter. You will learn different methods of preparation with and without pot, grill and pan - some can also be prepared directly on the embers. You will have the opportunity to try everything yourself, so that later, when you have guests, it will work out. The following dishes should be created together (small variations possible):
- Various vegetables (peppers, eggplant, leeks, garlic, mushrooms) and fish (trout) directly on the embers.
- Flame salmon (salmon on the board)
- Meat dish (game goulash or layered meat) in the Dutch Oven
- Egg pancakes in the lid of the Dutch Oven with caramel topping
- Baked apples or baked goods in the Dutch Oven
- Coffee from the percolator
Before we start cooking, we search for ingredients and look for wild herbs or berries and mushrooms (depending on the season) to give our dishes that special touch. A small wild herb hike with the farm goats (!) led by Jeanette Nadebor from Kräuterhof Carlsthal in advance to warm up and get to know!
