World Interhash 2010 Kuching, Sarawak Malaysia THE WORLD HASH DIRECTORY 14th Edition published by World Interhash 2010 Kuching, Sarawak Malaysia Compiled by D2HD (ably assited by various regional helpers) Designed and edited by HONKERS FOREWORD The details for hashes listed in this publication have been provided by the network of Regional Hash Websites who freely publish more details about Hashing for various areas that cover the entire world. Regional Hash Websites are maintained by Hasher volunteers who Hash in respective regions and are best able to share local Hashing knowledge. If you are looking for up-to-date Hash information in a specific area first check the appropriate Regional Hash website. The summary of Regional Hash Websites is available in this World Hash Directory. An online listing is available on website http://thehashhouse.org/directories to show possible amendments. This World Hash Directory publishes basic information about each Hash that runs regularly at least once a month. The information offered includes details of when the Hash meets, along with sufficient contact detail so intending visitors can establish precisely where. Despite the huge effort to update all information prior to publication, many of the Hash listings are out of date. The ‘Last update’ reference for each listing gives indication of currency. Help Regional Hash Websites to update information by forwarding any amendments directly to the appropriate Regional Hash Website Any information available about the origins of each Hash has also been included. Details of when founded, who the founder was and where the founder previously Hashed are critical when compiling the Hash Genealogy, a Hash Heritage Foundation project that was started by ‘Tumbling’ Bill Panton many years ago. More details of Hash origins, including co-founders who may have assisted the founder, are published on http://thehashhouse.org/genealogy. Hash Genealogy is being continually researched. Make sure the records of your Hash are complete by providing any missing critical information to [email protected]. The Regional Hash Website approach has proved to be highly effective and well suited to the informal nature of Hash House Harriers. Providing a consolidated World Hash Directory at each Interhash provides just a snapshot of Hashing and motivates Hashers around the world to provide updates and verification for inclusion by a deadline. The World Hash Directory becomes a valuable reference when access to the internet is not available. Search engines offer volumes of websites on Hashing but so much of it is useless as many of the websites have not been updated for many years and not likely to ever be. The internet references within the World Hash Directory will be the most current as they have been reviewed as part of the general update process. Thanks to the many Hashers from around the world who provided updates of Hashes to Regional Hash Websites before the deadline. Thanks to Honkers who transformed the basic Hash listings into a structured publication. Thanks to all the Regional Hash Website editors who packaged the information up into suitable formats so it could easily be processed. Those who assisted in the Hash information collection process include Slumpy, Digit, Mr Peeeeenut, Ra, Angel Lips, Room Boy, Organ Grinder, JR, Hazukashii, Condom, Liz Tan, Titanic, Peeking Ong, Railjerker, Spinning Dwarf, Cathusalem , Flashman, Likk'mm, Pampers, Baldrick, Bushbasher, Jeeves and Deep Throat.

Regional Hash Websites are maintained by hashers who actively hash in the various hash regions. A date when information was last updated for individual hash chapters/clubs is generally shown to give some indication of currency. If you are seeking information about a hash in a specific region, check out the relevant Regional Hash Website below as well as this World Hash Directory as the presentation of information may vary.

  • A Taste of Food in the Civil War
    Ellie Schweiker Jolene Onorati Manning school A Taste of Food in the Civil War What’s the way to keep a soldier alive? Strategy? Weaponry? Medicine? Or is it something as basic as food? While many of us take our meals for granted, the Civil War was impacted by the distribution and intake of food. Contrary to popular belief, most Union soldiers had plenty of food. The restrictions experienced by both the Union and Confederate soldiers were the types of food available during the civil war. The army with the soldiers well nourished gained an advantage. Societal norms regarding who prepared the food was also a factor and differed between slave states and free states. Without kitchens with experienced chefs or slaves, soldiers had to cope with the unvaried and insufficient rations they received. As the war began, Union soldiers started to realize the bleak reality of the food they were given. The United States Sanitary Commission, also known as Sanitary, supported and supervised all food allocation in the North. Captain James Sanderson was a notable volunteer who worked for the Sanitary. He noticed the importance of food in a man’s body and how advantageous an able­bodied man can be. After authoring the first cookbook distributed to soldiers, Sanderson helped raise awareness about meals on the battlefield. In Sanderson’s cookbook it was evident he was passionate about soldiers’ nutrition on the battlefield. “Remember that beans, badly boiled, kill more than bullets; and fat is more fatal than powder. In cooking, more than in anything else in this world, always make haste slowly.

  • Hardtack – a Cowboy’S Snack
    Hardtack – A Cowboy’s Snack It has often been said that “an army marches on its stomach”, showing the importance of staying well supplied and fed. The same could be said of the cowboy and the need for those men riding in the saddle to stay well fed while they made their way up the trail. While at the end of a hard days ride the cowboy would have a chance to fill their stomach when they were able to stop for the night and gather around the chuck wagon for dinner, during the days work there weren’t many chances to stop and take a snack break. If the cowboy wanted to eat something while on their horse working, it required something that was easily carried and could stand up to the stress of the trail. For many a snack, the cowboy turned to a traditional food item that had served many an explorer and soldier alike for a few hundred years…the hardtack cracker. Hardtack: Not quite bread, note quite a biscuit While not sounding very appetizing, hardtack has been found in many a pocket and knapsack throughout history. Having been around since the Crusades, the version of hardtack most commonly found on the American frontier was created in 1801 by Josiah Bent. Bent called his creation a “water cracker” that contained only two ingredients, water and flour. These ingredients would then be mixed into a paste, rolled out, cut into squares, and finally baked. Once the cooking process was over, you’d be left with a dry cracker that would stand up to the elements for a long time, while also not being the most appetizing snack.

  • Army Hardtack Recipe
    Army Hardtack Recipe Ingredients: •4 cups flour (preferably whole wheat) •4 teaspoons salt •Water (about 2 cups) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix the flour and salt together in a bowl. Add just enough water (less than two cups, so that the mixture will stick together, producing a dough that won’t stick to hands. Mix the dough by hand. Roll the dough out, shaping it roughly into a rectangle. Cut the dough into squares about 3 x 3 inches and ½ inch thick. After cutting the squares, press a pattern of four rows of four holes into each square, using a nail, or other such object. Do not punch all the way through the dough. It should resemble a modern saltine cracker. Turn the square over and do the same to the other side. Place the squares on an ungreased cookie sheet in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Turn each piece over and bake for another 30 minutes. The crackers should be slightly brown on both sides. Makes about 10 squares. This legendary cracker, consisting of flour, water, and salt, was the main staple of the soldier’s diet. If kept dry, it could be preserved almost indefinitely. Before a campaign, troops were typically issued three day’s worth of rations, including thirty pieces of hardtack. Hardtack was sometimes jokingly referred to as “tooth dullers” or “sheet iron”. The preferred way to prepare hardtack was to soften them in water, and then fry them in bacon grease. However, on the march, soldiers ate them “raw” with a piece of salt pork, bacon, or some sugar.

  • Hardtack Pilot Crackers
    Hardtack Pilot Crackers The traditional staple of early missionaries traveling by ship to new lands went by a variety of names— oyster crackers, pilot biscuits, pilot crackers, saloon pilots, ship bread, ship biscuit, sea bread, hardtack, and hard bread. The bakers of the time made biscuits as hard as possible, as the biscuits would soften and become more palatable with time due to exposure to humidity and other weather elements. Because it is hard and dry, hardtack (when properly stored and transported) will survive rough handling and temperature extremes. To soften, hardtack was often dunked in tea, coffee, or some other liquid, or cooked into a skillet meal. Because it was baked hard, it would stay intact for years if kept dry. For long voyages, hardtack was baked four times, rather than the more common two, and prepared six months before sailing. CAL/SERV: 28 YIELDS: 4 DOZEN PREP TIME: 15MINS COOK TIME: 30MINS TOTAL TIME: 45MINS INGREDIENTS 2 c. all-purpose flour plus more for rolling out the crackers 1 1/2 tsp. brown sugar 1 1/2 tsp. salt 3/4 c. milk 2 tbsp. unsalted butter DIRECTIONS Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Combine the flour, brown sugar, and salt in a medium bowl and mix. Make a well in the center and add the milk and butter. Stir with a fork until a dough forms; turn out on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to a 1/2- to 3/4-inch thickness and cut into bite-size squares or pieces.

  • Bisques and Biscuits
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Bisques and Biscuits The word biscuit (from the Middle French bescuit) is derived from the Latin words bis (twice) and coquere, coctus (to cook, cooked). The crustaceans in a French bisque are twice-cooked, as well, first sautéed lightly in their shells, then simmered in a mixture of wine and aromatic ingredients (before being strained), followed by the addition of cream. But in New Orleans, things are different. First of all, the etymology of the word bisque (meaning that cream- ladened Gallic variety) is thought to have originated from Biscay, as in the Bay of Biscay (and not from the same roots as biscuit). On some medieval maps, the Bay of Biscay is designated as El Mar del los Vascos (the Basque Sea). It’s that seafood-rich body of water nestled between Spain and France. Secondly, the classical French culinary traditions of bisque preparation have been superseded by South Louisiana’s dark roux-based soup, brimming with butter, but devoid of the cream as in the European variety. And like a prize in a box of Cracker Jack, our local version has flavorful stuffing encased in each crawfish head (the large red thorax shell), unsuccessfully hiding in our bowl. The famed international writer Lafcadio Hearn, who spent a decade in New Orleans, wrote about stuffing the heads and preparing the bisque “A LA CREOLE” back in 1885 in his popular La Cuisine Créole, a fine collection of culinary recipes from leading New Orleans Creole chefs and housewives.

  • Hardtack Recipe to Try out at Home!
    History of Hardtack “Tis the song that is uttered in camp by night and day, ‘Tis the wail that is mingled with each snore; ‘Tis the sighing of the soul for spring chickens far away, ‘Oh hard crackers, come again no more!’ ‘Tis the song of the soldier, weary, hungry and faint, Hard crackers, hard crackers, come again no more; Many days have I chewed you and uttered no complaint, Hard crackers, hard cracker, come again no more!” -from a soldier’s poem called “Hard Times” During the Civil War, the food given to soldiers was called rations. These rations usually consisted of salt pork, hardtack, coffee and sugar. Salt pork is made from pig bellies preserved with salt, which prevents it from rotting or molding. Hardtack is a type of hard cracker. The ingredients for making hardtack are flour, salt, water, and a bit of fat. Hardtack became a very important ration because the food could last for years. Soldiers could put the hardtack in their haversack (a bag carried over the shoulder to hold food) and not have to worry that the hardtack would spoil. Sometimes, hardtack became infested with weevils. Weevils were a small bug that enjoyed eating the tough biscuit. Due to the frequent weevil infestations, soldiers called the hardtack “worm castles.” Other names soldiers used for the hardtack were “tooth dullers” and “sheet iron crackers.” Soldiers invented these names because hardtack was so hard it could break the soldier’s teeth!

  • Civil War Traveling Trunk Inventory List “Artifake” Descriptions
    CIVIL WAR TRAVELING TRUNK INVENTORY LIST “ARTIFAKE” DESCRIPTIONS What are “artifakes”? The items in this traveling trunk are not really from the 1860s. Those valuable items are kept safely in museums around the world and are called “artifacts.” They are very fragile and people are usually not allowed to touch them. The items we have assembled for you are reproductions of those artifacts. Since they are made today, anyone can touch and examine them! Given that they are not artifacts, we call them “artifakes.” Federal Uniform The “blue suit” issued to Union soldiers was made primarily of wool, which made the uniform very durable. However, this also made it heavy and itchy, which could be unbearable in the spring and summer heat. The four-button “sack coat” was simple to make and issued to thousands of Federal troops. The sky-blue trousers were worn with suspenders. The “kepi” hat was based on a French design and was used extensively throughout the army. Brass numbers and letters were placed on the top of the hat to show the regiment with which the soldier was serving. Confederate Uniform Though commonly associated with the color grey, Southern uniforms also came in shades of tan or brown, which was partially the result of crude attempts to re- move blue dye from captured Northern uniforms. Confederate uniforms were much more ad hoc than Federal uniforms, combining Union pieces, items brought from home, supplies purchased from England, and items made in the Confederacy. The trousers of this uniform are made from “jean cloth”, a combination of wool and cotton fibers that gave clothing the durability of wool with the breathability of cotton.
