[Sca-cooks] how to make bread

[Stefan li Rous]

Daniel in the northern west lands asked:
====
I am new to the list and fairly new to the SCA.  I was looking for  
ways to
make bread at camp.  Can anybody help me? I have a propane stove and a
Colman type oven.

A number of people on this list have commented on having good luck  
with these "Coleman type" ovens. I assume you are talking about the  
sheet metal boxes which sit on top of the burner(s) of a Coleman stove.

You find comments and suggestions on these in this file in the SCA- 
CAMPING section of the Florilegium, as well as messages on cooking  
bread other ways in camp.

If you really feel adventurous, you might also consider a brick or   
earth oven. This file is in the FOOD-UTENSILS section of the  
Florilegium:
ovens-msg        (100K)  3/26/05    Medieval ovens and SCA camp ovens.

Or were you looking for recipes and bread techniques to use in such  
an oven? In that case, take a look through the files in the FOOD- 
BREADS section, such as:
bread-msg        (220K)  3/23/06    Medieval breads and grains.
breadmaking-msg  (248K)  3/28/06    Period bread recipes and re- 
creations.
