Cleaning Cookware |
|
|
 |
|

I have picked up a trick over the past many years that I have found to be quite helpful when it comes time to cleaning those pots. Before you put water in them, cover the outside of the pot with dishwashing soap. This will protect the pot from burning and the black will wipe off with little effort! Any soap brand will do. Please remember not to use the soap in the local water source. This would badly effect the wildlife! |

Firestarters |
|
|
|
The fire starters you buy at the store are very good products. However, I just get a kick out of starting a fire with my own firestarters. Here's how I make them. First, gather the following items:
Paper towel tube cut into 3" sections
Cardboard cut into 3" widths (leave long)
Any kind of wax
Something to melt wax in on the stove
Roll up the cardboard tightly and stick inside the 3" paper towel tube. You may have to adjust the length of the cardboard so it will fit in the tube. Melt wax in the container. Place firestarter in the wax and make sure it gets a good healthy coating. Remove firestarter from wax and let dry. You now have a waterproof firestarter. I have been making these for years and they have never failed me! E-mail me if you have any questions.
Another great firestarter to use is dryer lint. Simply save it for a few days before your trip and put it into a zip lock bag to keep it dry. Fresh dryer lint is reccomended.
