Every year I go trekking In Algonquin Provincial Park with my friends usually for a 7 day 120km trip. This year I wanted to make my food as light as possible while being low carb paleo. Fat has the highest caloric density of 9kcal/gram, compared to 4kcal/gram for protein and carbohydrates. So to maximize calorie to weight ratio, it is ideal to maximize fat content of your food.
In order to ensure I had adequate caloric input I estimated that I would burn roughly 3000-3500Kcal per day. This proved to be accurate as I was never hungry during the trip, if anything it may have been slightly over estimated to be conservative. You Never want to be hungry while trekking!
Most of the weight of food is in the water content. To make your food lightweight you want food that is dehydrated so that the water content has been removed. I dehydrated everything I can, fruits, veggies, meat, and eggs. For dinner I made stews to allow the meat and veggies to rehydrate while adding butter for flavor and adding calories.
My breakfast remained constant with dried eggs and cooked bacon. Snacks varied from day-to-day but were also fairly consistent. Dinner’s also varied. Here are the weight breakdowns with estimated caloric content. I
But while the meals and snack recipes in Recipes for Adventure are excellent, the real value of the book in learning how to dehydrate good food for your trips so you don’t have to rely on expensive Mountainhouse-style meals which have a ton of salt and a long list of unpronounceable ingredients in them.
In Recipes for Adventure, Chef Glenn provides step-by-step direction on how to dehydrate all of your favorite foods from meats to vegetables and fruits. He explains the most important features to get when buying a food dehydrator and how to get the best results for your efforts, including specific ways to prepare different types of food before you dry them.
Starchy foods and stews like sweet potatoes, cheddar potatoes, BBQ beef stew, corn chowder, peas, and pumpkin pie filling can be dehydrated into something called “bark” which is cooked first, homogenized in a blender, dehydrated, and then broken up and stored in plastic bags.
This includes meals that you assemble from dehydrated ingredients on the trail, ones you add to a starch like rice, or fully assembled meals that you cook and dehydrate beforehand such as beef and bean chili, ratatoille, or scrambled eggs with polenta (to help them rehydrate properly), and more.
Recipes for Adventure is a great book about how to dehydrate your own backing food that include dozens of mouth-watering step by step recipes. But it’s more than just a backpacking cookbook because it is full of tips and tricks about how to dry and rehydrate specific food types, the best equipment to buy for dehydrating your food, and how to preserve it until your next adventure.
Available only at Amazon.com, Recipes for Adventure is a great gift to give yourself or the backpacking foodie in your family.
Disclosure: The Backpacking Chef, Glen McAllister, sent a copy of his new book, Recipes for Adventure, to Philip Werner (SectionHiker.com) for this review but I probably would have written a review of it anyway since I learned almost everything I know about dehydrating backpacking food from Glenn’s website The Backpackingchef.com.
