Home-made ready-meals?<\/h2>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Yep. Here’s a simple explanation of how you can make your own ready-meals for hiking. Imagine the possibilities…<\/p>

What you need for \u00c5ste’s ready-meals<\/h2>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Dehydrator or oven<\/strong><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Vacuum-sealer \u2013 not essential, but the food keeps longer and takes up less space in your pack<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Making your own ready-meals sounds advanced, but it’s quite simple. All you need is some patience \u2013 the drying takes time…<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

How to dry food<\/strong><\/h3>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Cut the raw materials\/ the vegetables into similar-sized pieces. Then they’ll dry evenly and and they’ll be ready at the same time.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Don’t use butter and oil when frying the vegetables in advance \u2013 it’ll make your finished packs go rancid. Use it when you’re preparing the food.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Dry vegetables at 50\u00b0. The drying time depends a little on how you do it. If you use an oven, leave the oven door slightly ajar. It takes slightly longer with an oven.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

If you want to make the process easier, make the whole dish and then simply dehydrate it.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

If you’re going to dry meat, use meat with less fat; it keeps better. Meat should be dried at around 65-70 degrees. It’s a good idea to turn the meat half-way through the drying process.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>


<\/p>

Mix with spices, dried milk, rice and pasta, depending on what you’re making.<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/p><\/div><\/div>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Remember to cut vegetables into small pieces: large ones take a long time to dry.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

After you’ve cooked your dish, let it rest before spreading it on a sheet of baking paper on an oven tray or a dehydrator tray. Make sure beans are split so that water can escapes. Don’t cook with too much oil \u2013 it won’t dry properly.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Preheat oven\/dehydrator at 50\u00b0\u201360\u00b0 degrees. Put the tray in and leave it for about eight hours. Take the trays out and let them rest for half an hour. If left for too long, it can absorb moisture.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Then divide it into four portions. Add instant rice (for example) and vacuum seal.<\/p>

<\/p>

“Sous vide”<\/h3>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Sous-vide<\/strong> (French for under vacuum<\/em>) is a method of preparing food where the food’s sealed in a vaccum-pack<\/a> and cooked at a low temperature for a long time.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

This is something you can do yourself \u2013 read about it here!<\/a><\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The advantage of this method is that you can cook even real gourmet food (or whatever you like) in advance and vacuum seal it. Then all you have to do is heat it up in hot water, and voila \u2013 you’re ready for a fantastic meal!<\/p>
