We've talked about doing this since before we were married, but somehow never actually did it until this year...
No electric lights, no forks, no spoons. Just a 'dagger' (steak knife) per person, some meat and veggies boiled in a pot, and a big blob of bread.
Corned beef, potatoes, carrots, all baked in a cast iron dutch oven (which I confess I put in the oven because I didn't feel like building a fire)
Honey Oatmeal bread, also baked in cast iron. We ripped off hunks rather than cutting it, and used it to sop up the juice from our meat. Mmmm, so yummy!
That actually looks really good. I may try this.
ReplyDeleteTotally random question, but you made strawberry shortcakes when we lived together that I want the recipe for. It wasn't angel food cake, it was a denser, courser cake that almost looked like lumpy cornbread. Since I don't cook too often, I don't know what type of cake you'd call it. Do you remember? And do you have the recipe?
ReplyDeleteMe (and my FHE group) would appreciate it! Thanks!
Fun! Your nerdiness actually looks cool.
ReplyDeleteCorned beef is one of my husband's all time favorite foods and homemade bread is so delicious.
