This is a wiki (editable web page) to organise cooking for the CUHWC trip to Caseg Fraith (Snowdonia) this weekend. The kitchen has several electric ovens and hobs, two fridges, a freezer and a microwave. All utensils, crockery, cutlery, pots and pans are provided, along with washing up materials. The club will supply cooking oil.
Click edit at the top to change the text (you'll need to be logged in to your account the website first - click here to register if you don't have one). You can either suggest a meal idea or join one of the existing ones and you're obviously also welcome to sort yourself out (move your name to 'Independent'). The person who suggests the meal is responsible for arranging the ingredients - everyone else in the group should bring money on the trip to pay for their share, and expect to help with the preparation and washing up.
Timetable
Meal suggestions by Tuesday evening. Finalise groups by Wednesday night so the person suggesting the meal knows how much they have to buy and have a couple of days to do the shopping.
Coq au vin
I've been in the club a year now and have managed to evade cooking duties, but this time I can't think of an excuse so here goes...
- Carrot and butternut squash soup
- Coq au vin with mashed potatoes and leeks
- Possibly Hannah's pudding - sounds good! I should think you can get quark in the big supermarkets, if not, might ricotta or cottage cheese do instead? Are you willing to get the ingredients? --> Yes, of course, I will bring the ingredients for the dessert! And thanks for the quark tipp, I will figure somehting out... Hannah.
I'm planning to get the coq au vin at least half made on Friday, so hopefully this will be a relatively low-faff cooking option!
