INTRODUCTION
One of the best things about camping is sitting around the pit and creating
delicious campfire food. Between the overall feel of the outdoors and the
flavor elements of fire, wood, and coal, the taste of campfire cooking is
unparalleled and can leave you craving those rustic flavors all year long.
There may be times, however, when you want to branch out from your
typical grill and skewer campfire foods, only without the extra pots and pans
that make cleanup such a hassle. This is a great time to explore the wonderful
(and tasty!) options of campfire foil packet cooking.
Foil packet cooking is a food preparation method that involves placing all of
the ingredients inside a piece of aluminum foil that has been reconstructed
into a sealed packet or envelope. The benefits of foil packet cooking are
many and include less prep and cleanup than ever before, as well as an ability
to bring new dishes to the campsite. Foil packet cooking allows for the
unique melding of flavors that occurs when different food items and spices
are prepared in close quarters—like in a foil packet! Foil packet cooking
maintains the integrity of your ingredients and gives you great options for
breakfast, entrees, sides, and even desserts.
This third volume of the Foil Packet Recipes was written not only to show
you the techniques of foil packet cooking but to introduce you to endless new
creative possibilities. Foil packet cooking is easy and stress-free, allowing
you to produce tasty, elegant, and rustic culinary masterpieces. In this book,
you will learn all that you need to know about foil packet cooking, as well as
tips that’ll make your time at the campfire cooking site that much easier.
From now on, you can sit back and savor the experiences with friends and
family.
Have many wonderful camping trips and great foil packet cooking!
FOIL PACKET HOW TO
There is nothing complicated about foil packet cooking. The tools you need
are minimal, and the techniques are easy to master. The following are some
of the basics you’ll need to prepare your foil packet meals.
Equipment
To make the most delicious foil packet meal, all you need is aluminum foil,
cooking spray, a heat source, and some food. That’s it. When you choose
your foil, it is best to choose a heavy-weight aluminum foil. A heavier foil
will hold up better when you fold it —plus it’ll help when you transfer your
ingredients to the heat source. Heavyweight aluminum foil will maintain any
folds and crimps. It’ll provide for a more consistent cooking temperature and
will hold in all juices and steam.
Heat
You can use any available heat source at the campsite, including a fire pit,
grill, or propane heat source. The one thing you’ll want to avoid is setting
your foil packet directly onto the flame. If you are using a grill or fire pit,
prepare by setting fire to some wood or coals—ideally a stack that’s about
two inches thick. Let your fire burn until the wood or coals are smoldering
hot but are no longer producing flames. Placing your foil packets directly
onto the flame will cause inconsistency in cooking, and possibly burning.
Cooking Sprays and Fats
It is absolutely essential that you apply oil to your foil packets. That’ll
prevent sticking, charring, and unpleasant alterations in flavor. Always plan
on spraying the inside of your aluminum foil as part of the preparation
process. If the meal you are preparing already contains a decent about of oil,
that may be sufficient protective coating between the food and the foil. Only
then should you choose to skip the cooking spray. And if you prefer not to
use cooking spray, a light brushing of cooking oil or melted butter is just as
effective.
Consider Your Ingredients
Once you see all the possibilities foil packet cooking has to offer, you’ll be
tempted to experiment and create your own packets—and you definitely
should! However, take into consideration the type and size of ingredients that
you are combining. For example, hard vegetables require longer cooking
times and should not be combined with thin pieces of meat unless they’ve
been chopped thinly, too. You wouldn’t want the meat to overcook or
undercook the vegetable, just because they’re in the same foil packet. Always
make sure that you adjust the size of your ingredients to facilitate the cooking
process. Finally, make sure that you add an ingredient that contains moisture,
especially for recipes that are rather dry on their own. When it comes to foil
packet cooking, it’s hard to add ingredients halfway through the cooking
process, so make sure you have what you need at the beginning. Add
moisture with ingredients like tomatoes, butter, and marinades.
Assembly
When you assemble your foil packets, you ’ ll need to keep your
ingredients ’ variable cooking times in mind. Place the ingredients with the
longest cooking times at the bottom of the packet, as that will give them the
greatest initial exposure to the heat source. For example, if your foil packets
include both meats and vegetables, you will want to add the meats to the
bottom of the packet and keep the vegetables on top. Also, take into
consideration the texture and blending of your ingredients. If you have
something that is going to melt, such as cheese, make sure the ingredients
nearest to that ingredient are the ones that you want to mix with it.
Styles of Packets
Not all foil packets are created equal. There are two different styles of foil
packets that you can use, each one suitable for cooking different ingredients.
