Two gourmet camping recipes to prep at home and cook over the campfire

Summer is all about being outside, and one of our favourite activities to do with the family is camping. Don't sacrifice flavour on your next camping adventure, thanks to cookbook author, Chris Nuttall-Smith and these two simple recipes. 

Corn, cheddar, and green onion skillet cake

These crispy buttermilk-and-cornmeal skillet cakes pop with juicy corn kernels, and crunch at their edges with bits of pan-caramelized cheddar cheese.

Dan Dan noodles of backcountry dreams

It’s hard to think of a more in-your-face-delicious backpacking meal than this fiery, sweet, sour, and savoury noodle dish. It’s got crisp fried pork and steaming wheat noodles and is topped with toasted peanuts and Sichuan peppercorns. And it’s bathed in a chili crisp–based sauce that’s dark and brooding and puckery-tangy from black rice vinegar.
