I’m going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I’m going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we’re expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.
However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I’m not sure if there’s any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.
Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you’d recommend? Thank you so much!
You’ve gotten tons of good suggestions, but also like just bring a camp stove? Even if an actual camp stove isn’t allowed, you could easily use a tea candle. It takes a bit longer but it will boil water.
There are some amazingly small and light stoves out there. There’s the Esbit stove (size of a deck of cards, including fuel) and the PocketRocket (fits in a mug but needs bulky fuel). Then if you’re willing to deal with collecting firewood, there is a whole family of wood burning stoves that can produce a surprisingly strong fire as long as there is firewood in the area. They then pack down completely flat.
