A few weeks ago I stayed at my buddies cabin for a little scouting. He brought chops from home but pulled out some powdered instant potatoes out of the pantry to go with it. I was surprised at how tasty they where. Once I commented on it he was stunned that as a hiker it wasn't a staple in my backpack. He mentioned that they are very popular with ultralight thru hikers as their calorie to weight ratio is excellent. Not to mention they would go great with any grouse or rabbit taken while on a back country hunt. He also mentioned that a lot of folks use them as a thickener for their MH meals.
Makes sense!
So anyone here carry instant potatoes as a staple and if so what's your favorite use for them. My last scouting/conditioning trip is next weekend and am thinking of bringing some to play around with.
I also know that many folks carry Bisquick for biscuits and whatnot so I'm also interested in any other versatile staples that folks may carry with them into the wilds and their associated recipes.
Thanks and Happy Hunting!
