#one of the myriad ways that dungeon meshi appeals to me personally

[blujayonthewing]

it's weird to me that online content on foraging and camp/ bushcraft cooking never seem to overlap, at least not that I've ever found?? foraging recipes are always like 'wild mushroom risotto with chardonnay and arborio rice' and bushcraft cooking is always like 'first, unpack your ribeye you brought from home--' like what is going on here, surely 'guy who wants to camp out and cook over a fire' and 'guy who wants to eat some plants they found in the woods' cannot be completely separate venn diagram circles

#I mean it's clearly not because I Am The Guy #it's just weird that there's no content like this that I've ever seen #you get catch-and-cook for mostly just fishing but sometimes other animals #which is great but a) incomplete b) nearly useless to me as someone who doesn't hunt and is TERRIBLE at fishing #and like. yeah I am not an idiot I know I could blanch and saute greens over a fire without needing my hand held about it #but I would still enjoy it as content? if that makes sense? #one of the myriad ways that dungeon meshi appeals to me personally #is the (apparently EXTREMELY niche) fantasy of 'what if foraged survival cooking was also like. good.' #what can I make with cattails 'well you can take them home and--' what can I make WHERE I FOUND THEM #'you can dry and pound the roots into a starchy survival flour' you are killing me. I'm begging you to consider a midpoint #where I am not in my home kitchen but I'm also not starving to death and have a very small and basic pantry with me #this is one of those things that I'm 'be the change' levels of annoyed about #but I'm not confident in my ability to make good videos lol #about me
