When summer comes, one of outdoor activities that I look forward to is camping.
Getting away from busy traffic, my high tech gadgets and works for few days to enjoy nature sounds really fun to me, a new adventure that I don't want to miss.
Since I love food, I can tell that food cooked outdoor can taste better than over-priced food from your favorite restaurants.
If you haven't experienced cooking over a real wood fire, this is your chance to enjoy delicious food with a typical aroma that makes you drool.
You probably want to say why bother with the trouble when we have electric cooker or gas stoves and grill that can cook our food in quick and easy way.
Well, let me tell you my friend, cooking with your electric appliance indeed offers easier and faster result, but nothing beats cooking over real wood fire.
Yes, you can fake those wood flavors and smoke, but when you actually use real fire, there's something nostalgic and primitive about it.
It takes you back to the old days when all food can only be cooked over an open wood fire.
Even ordinary food can smell wonderfully good that makes everyone around hungry.
You can choose to use wood or charcoal to cook outdoors, but I highly recommend you to use wood.
I suggest you to use only good hardwoods (e.
g.
oak) because they burn long enough and get very hot, enough to provide your food with that delicious typical aroma.
Stay away from softwoods (e.
g.
pine) as they don't burn long enough even though they burn easier.
It is highly suggested to start the fire naturally instead of using lighter fuel, because lighter fuel contaminates your food with chemical smells, you definitely don't want this to happen.
You have to start your fire ahead because most people don't understand that it can take some time for the fire to really get going.
You can choose to do this on outdoor fire pit or large kettle grills.
Talk about outdoor cooking equipments, you can easily find there's a wide variety cooking tools available in the market for the joy of outdoor cooking.
One of important tools I can't stress enough that you need to carry during your outdoor adventure would be knife sharpener.
If you plan to do a lot of outdoor adventures then buying high quality cooking equipments is a good investment for the coming summer season.
If you have the budget, don't go for cheap stuff, for example cast iron skillet is better than aluminum.
Choose the right outdoor grill style that suits your needs and budget.
It's really important to keep your fresh meat, plates or any other cooking utensils away from other tools that you're going to use because Salmonella can sneak out.
Please also pay attention to any safety regulations because there are some cooking methods are not allowed in camping area to prevent fires that get out of control.
