  • Backcountry Cooking Is a Source of Bragging Rights Among Leaders and Scouts Alike
    1 Fast, Easy, and Clean: Surviving and even Thriving in the Backcountry with Taste and Flair “Give me the luxuries and I can dispense with the necessities”- Oscar Wilde Like front-country cooking, backcountry cooking is a source of bragging rights among leaders and scouts alike. At the bottom lies hotdogs warmed (maybe) over a fire with crushed buns. Somewhere near the middle are the dehydrated meals with directions followed properly and MREs. You, however, cannot run with the pack: you must lead it (how about my mixed metaphors?!). At the top stands proudly the backcountry gourmet: the rest of the troop huddles around him, watching with amazement as he whips together a feast from the nondescript contents of his pack. This is you, the man for whom wilderness bows, Scouts salute, and women swoon. Never again will you suffer in the backcountry or clean your own pots. Basic Equipment This class assumes that you have no working knowledge of backcountry camping except that few come back alive, and those who do don’t talk about it. In truth, the backcountry is mostly harmless: knowledge is the difference between surviving and thriving. Stoves BSA pushes canister stoves (propane, butane, and other mixtures) as opposed to liquid fuel stoves due to safety concerns. Canister stoves work well under ideal circumstances, but once the temperature drops…. I’ve had my liquid fuel stove for 20+ years (it won’t die and allow me to get one of the new MSR Whisperlite adjustable stoves), and with proper training, anyone can operate it safely.

  • Glycaemic and Satiating Properties of Potato Products
    European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2008) 62, 87–95 & 2008 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 0954-3007/08 $30.00 www.nature.com/ejcn ORIGINAL ARTICLE Glycaemic and satiating properties of potato products M Leeman, E O¨ stman and I Bjo¨rck Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Department of Food Technology, Engineering and Nutrition, Lund University, Lund, Sweden Objective: To investigate glycaemic and satiating properties of potato products in healthy subjects using energy-equivalent or carbohydrate-equivalent test meals, respectively. Subjects and setting: Thirteen healthy subjects volunteered for the first study, and 14 for the second. The tests were performed at Applied Nutrition and Food Chemistry, Lund University, Sweden. Experimental design and test meals: All meals were served as breakfast in random order after an overnight fast. Study 1 included four energy-equivalent (1000 kJ) meals of boiled potatoes, french fries, or mashed potatoes; the latter varying in portion size by use of different amounts of water. The available carbohydrate content varied between 32.5 and 50.3 g/portion. Capillary blood samples were collected during 240 min for analysis of glucose, and satiety was measured with a subjective rating scale. Study 2 included four carbohydrate-equivalent meals (50 g available carbohydrates) of french fries, boiled potatoes served with and without addition of oil, and white wheat bread (reference). The energy content varied between 963 and 1534 kJ/portion. Capillary blood samples were collected during 180 min for analysis of glucose, and satiety was measured using a subjective rating scale. Results: Study 1: boiled potatoes induced higher subjective satiety than french fries when compared on an energy-equivalent basis.

  • Potato Flakes
    1 POTATO FLAKES 1.1 Introduction Potato flakes are the most important form of dehydrated potato products, which also include potato granules, pellets, powder, shredded and sliced potato. Dehydrated potato flakes are made by pressing cooked mashed potatoes onto a drum drier, which forms a sheet that can be broken up and ground to the required density. Potato flakes can be used anywhere, where one would use mashed potatoes. They are also used in commercially available products, like instant mashed potatoes, croquettes, pasta and fabricated snacks. As a thickener, they enhance creamy frozen desserts, gravies and chocolate milk. Like other dehydrated potato products, they extend the shelf life of baked goods. After wheat, rice and maize, potato is the most important food crop in the world. It contributes to almost 50% of the total tuber and root crop production. Potato has a good food value as compared to other staple food crops as it is rich in carbohydrates and also contain proteins, minerals like calcium and potassium and vitamins like vitamin C. Boiling the potatoes increase their protein content even more than maize has and almost doubles their calcium content. It is vastly consumed as a vegetable and is also used in various forms such as starch, flour, alcohol, dextrin and livestock fodder. 1.2 Objective The primary objective of the model report is to facilitate the entrepreneurs in understanding the importance of setting up a unit of potato flakes. This model report will serve as guidance to the entrepreneurs on starting up such a new project and basic technical knowledge for setting up such a facility.
