  • subheading: Antarctic Pemmican Recipe:
  • A simple but very effective way of making a very high energy, physically resilient and compact foodstuff from meat and fat. Pemmican can be eaten as it is, on sledging biscuits or made into a stew after minimal cooking as hoosh.
  • subheading: Ingredients:
  • Lean dense meat, traditionally buffalo, reindeer (caribou) or deer. I didn't have any of these available so I used beef - min about 500g to 1kg (1.1 to 2.2 lb.)
  • Fat from the same kind of meat, (purchased extra fat of the same kind if there is not enough on the piece you buy) - around 250g of fat for 1kg of meat, the meat will be dehydrated and much lighter when the fat is added.
  • subheading: Antarctic Hoosh Recipe:
  • A simple stew made in the field from pemmican, sledging biscuits and snow. This and little else than this was eaten by the teams of Scott and Amundsen to reach the South Pole and by all of the early Antarctic explorers.
  • subheading: Ingredients:
  • Pemmican - 60g (2 oz) per person
  • Sledging biscuits - 75g (2.5 oz) per person
  • Water - 100ml per person to start with - ideally as snow from Antarctica, but the tap will do if this is not available
  • subheading: Ernest Shackleton's Bannocks Recipe:
  • After the Endurance sank amongst the ice floes of the Weddell Sea, this simple flatbread sustained the crew as it could be made easily with minimal equipment on a blubber stove made of scavenged metal from the ship wreck.
  • subheading: Ingredients:
  • 200g plain white flour
  • 10g baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 40g butter
  • 100ml cold water
  • subheading: Antarctic Food Chain Recipe:
  • A representation of the Antarctic marine food web, a fun to make simple seafood dish.
  • subheading: Ingredients:
  • Green rice (phytoplankton)
  • Red rice (zooplankton)
  • Prawns (krill)
  • Squid or small whole fish.
  •  
  • With a sweet chili sauce to give it flavour and make it especially tasty (the sweet chili sauce doesn't represent anything).
  • subheading: South Pole, "Race around the World" Recipe:
  • In honour of the Amundsen-Scott, South Pole Base annual Christmas tradition on the 25th of December, there is a race three times around the world through all lines of longitude.
