Van cooking: breakfast hashbrowns from leftover baked potatoes
Van cooking: breakfast hashbrowns from leftover baked potatoes
I "baked" some whole potatoes in the IP yesterday (17mins at pressure, didn't measure the Wh) and ate some with butter and sour cream.
This morning I peeled the leftover potatoes, diced them for hash browns. Sauteed 1/4 onion in the pan over the small 300w hot plate, then added pots, salt, pepper, and cooked them until they started to brown. Added a bit of shredded cheese. pic
Hearty with this morning's creekwater coffee.
Total time on the hotplate was 25 mins, so 125Wh.

This sounds tasty. How do you filter the water, or do you filter at all? I've heard a lot of references to Berkey, but they do seem to take up a bit od space and the price seems high, accounting for filter replacements.

My drinking water is potable from municipal sources (35gal freshwater tank) and only goes through a Brita for flavor.
Harvested watger I use for cooking/washing/coffee gets crudely filtered through cloth to remove big stuff like bugs, leaves, etc. It's not filtered in the microbial sense as it will either be boiled (cooking) or not ingested (washing). And the spigot is elevated off the bottom of the container so finer sediment tends to settle out.
I discuss it a bit in this blog post. I've harvested rainwater off tarps to augment cooking water; example in this post.
None of it is pretty but it works. :-)
