This is how to get started successfully – 25 recipes included The Dutch Oven will refine your cooking experience by deepening your sense of freedom. Look forward to countless moments where you’ll leave your hectic daily routine behind. The Flammo Dutch Oven Handbook guides you through the first 20 hours with your Dutch oven. After a short introduction to the Dutch oven and what you need to consider when buying one, we will introduce available accessories. For the sake of completeness, we will explain how to season the Dutch oven, even though that process is probably not necessary and has been taken care of by the manufacturer (see chapter “Seasoning”). Then the fun can begin. We will show you how to prepare the embers and with which methods you can reach the desired temperature. When you are ready, you can begin cooking your first meal with the Dutch oven. For your first dish we picked an easy to prepare meal that is also low in acid so that it protects the virginal patina (the natural protective layer of the Dutch oven). That way you can concentrate on the Dutch oven and have a guaranteed successful start. After your first cooking success, the next step is cleaning. In a separate chapter you’ll find many tips and tricks involving cleaning. We compiled 10 additional tips before the last three steps. Then you’ll find 5 recipes to help you solidify your knowledge and extensively experience all the ample possibilities the Dutch oven offers first hand. We wish you lots of fun on your way to culinary freedom! Please note: the book is printed in black and white. For the benefit of a reasonable price, we decided to go without colorful glossy pictures.
