/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I don't trust /out/ to accomplish more than making MREs, so I wanna ask you guys something about camping foods.

Is there any way to safely categorize ingredients by whether they can be cooked into a meal, kept in an unrefrigerated container for up to several days and then reheated on a camping stove? Most animal products are out of the question I guess. What about dried meats like salami, would it keep for several days unrefrigerated, and would frying it increase or decrease that amount of time? Are there other kinds of foods I have to steer clear of?

Or would it be more advisable to carefully weigh ingredients for a meal uncooked and then only cook them once outdoors? At least then I'd have a clear picture of what needs or doesn't need refrigeration, but I'd also need to take more containers and possibly more utensils.
