Food & Cooking

Bow's Bush Food
by Allan "bow" Beauchamp

Here I am cooking fresh water clams and rose hips, and some bush "extras".

This bush stove was unique. On my left was actually a water hole in the rock, with a trough under the stove. As it would rain, the water would actually go under the stove and the ashes got picked up and help in sterilizing the water source.

So, we had heat, a good frying stone, the walls were warm and my native friends slept against the sides, and..... a water trough right next to the stove.

This is a fire I made to cook my supper late one night.
It works well and the stone actually cooks the meat more evenly.

Here is my son, Nicholas. He has caught a small snake, in this area they get much bigger, some five and a half feet long and one inch diameter. A good food source, though I doubt this one will do that for him!
