Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Yaffe, a librarian, camper, and author of High Trails Cookery, offers more than 150 recipes for hikers seeking an alternative to the expensive, often boring, freeze-dried prepared meals that are sold in stores. Most of them are for dishes that are completely cooked at home and dried in an electric dehydrator (or an oven), then simply rehydrated with boiling water, requiring no further cooking at the campsite. There are also trail snacks and other no-cook recipes, as well as cookies, muffins, and other baked goods. Some of the recipes are vegetarian, while others offer vegetarian (or vegan) options. For larger collections and others where camping and hiking books are popular. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.

    The recipes in this book are easy to make and easy to dehydrate.

    The recipes in this book are easy to make and easy to dehydrate. (Yes, you need a dehydrator to use them, but if you're thinking about taking them on a backpacking trip, that shouldn't be much of a surprise.) The ingredients are pretty easy to find, the recipes taste FANTASTIC, and unlike lots of other backpacking cookbooks, they aren't loaded with salt or other preservatives. Great way to eat healthy on trail. I 100% recommend this book!
