  • Playa Cookery
    PLAYA COOKERY A Gift By James Shearhart This is dedicated to Alton Brown, because he’d probably enjoy the challenge of the playa, and he’d probably Get It. There will always be a place at my table for him…. All quotes in italics are referenced to the M.F.K Fisher translation of Physiologie du goût (The Physiology of Taste) by Jean A. Brillat-Savarin. Second Edition [Note for PDF edition – this was originally laid out for printing on a four-by-eight booklet, so there will be some strangeness in format. Deal with it.] 2 Introduction A man who eats well and who repairs his bodily losses with wisdom and discernment can withstand more exertion than any other living creature. One must be touched by a unique kind of madness to willingly take a vacation for the better part of a week in an environment that can kill an unwary person in less than three days. As indicated by the title, this is a book that may be useful for cooking in the area of Nevada called the Black Rock Desert, a singular 200 square mile area some 4,000 feet above sea level, some 100 miles northeast of Reno. That being said, this is not a book to help one survive in the desert, at least in the strictest sense. This work assumes that one already knows how to survive on the playa; that having adequate shelter and food and clothing for the time spent, that duct tape, rope, and rebar are one’s best inanimate friends, that one is fully able to take care of oneself, are already ingrained in the potential playa cook.
