One Minute Boil

Save fuel, time, and the possibility of boil-over damage to your camp stove by practicing the One Minute Boil. Bring food to a boil, reduce heat and boil gently for one minute, then cover the pot tightly and remove from the heat source for 10 minutes or so. The food continues to cook by its own heat and both you and your stove are free to prepare another course.

Save the Popcorn Pot

To avoid burning the pot when you're popping popcorn, line the bottom with foil, shiny side up.

Coffee & Eggs

Save having to use another pot in the morning. After the coffee has finished brewing, put an egg in the coffee pot for five minutes. Result? A soft-boiled egg, ready to eat. Good coffee, too.
