Camp Cooking Essentials; Thursday, Third Period [05/25].

In the interest of saving time, Ignis had a couple of campfires already going at the site for today's class by the time the students arrived, with a little set-up of ingredients and equipment on a table as he waited. He, of course, would be open to chatting with any students that were early, but woe be to the ones who were not nearly so punctual, as he was going to launch into the lesson the moment the alarm on his watch alerted him to the fact that it was time to begin.

"Today," he began, "we're going to be focusing on a very specific type of cooking equipment that can be very useful even in a regular kitchen, but is absolutely essential to cooking at camp, and that is, of course, the Dutch oven."

Had you come out to the preserve that day expecting an incredibly thorough breakdown of what was essentially just a really nice pot? Because that was definitely what you were getting, as Ignis broke down some of the finer details on the variety of said pot, as well as what made it such an excellent tool for creating delicious meals, especially when working with a campfire.

"But enough talk," he said, and there'd definitely been plenty of that. "Let's put these principles into action and finally get to cooking. I have three recipes for you to choose from: short ribs, a classic pizza, and, of course, for a sweeter palate, apple pie. Yes, all over a campfire. You may even find it to be a new preferred method. So let's begin, shall we?"
