Is that allowed nowadays? The Woke Police will be after you!Not sure, OH seems busy and quiet for a while then nicely cooked food appears on a plate.
Thankyou for mentioning knives, I would not be without a set of very sharp ones. I used to swear by Global but the last time I was in Sweden, I picked up a set of Sushi serving knives......they are fantastic.I bought a Remoska earlier this year but I use it in the house more than the van because as Jim says in the article, the lid is a PITA! However, it's a super versatile bit of kit which makes a big difference to the options when away. I'll be using it tonight, in fact, and testing out to see how much power from my power bank that it uses. That may change how often I carry it. If I had a slightly bigger van I'd have no qualms about carrying it regularly. As it is, I currently only carry it on specific trips.
I cook inside my van 99% of the time, as I'm usually off grid and discreet camping. The two burner gas hob serves most of my needs pretty well. I have a grill which I've used half a dozen times in 8 years of owning this van.
As well as considering stoves/cookers etc, it's worth mentioning utensils. I have a fabulous very sharp serrated 5" utility knife (Henkels) in the van which is excellent for preparing almost anything. I also have a small sharp paring knife, and another Henkels knife, this time a 'sandwich knife' which is good for what it says. Good knives are not cheap, but they're worth the money and last indefinitely. All knives are kept well secured and out of sight.
I have a whistling kettle. I can do cuppa soups, pot noodles and coffee or tea.
