Spice seasoning perfect for camping and outdoors

What are outdoor spices?

Outdoor spices are seasonings that are made with a variety of spices and can be used to determine the flavor of your food. You can easily add seasoning with just one spice, without having to carry around salt, pepper, etc.

With outdoor spices, you can easily cook delicious food, making it a convenient item that can be used not only for camping but also at home.

Types of seasonings used when camping

The seasonings used when camping are divided into "powder type" and "liquid type", each with different characteristics.

powder type

Powdered seasonings include salt, sugar, and pepper, and outdoor spices also fall under the category of powdered seasonings. The powder type is very convenient because you can set the flavor just by sprinkling it on. Even after cooking, you can easily adjust the intensity of the flavor with a sprinkle of seasoning.

Another attractive feature is that many products are easier to carry than liquid types. If you put it in a pouch, it can be stored compactly without taking up much space. You don't have to worry about liquid leaking out, so you don't have to pack it tightly.

This seasoning is perfect for those who value portability and want quick and easy seasoning.

liquid type

Liquid types include soy sauce and sauces. In contrast to powdered outdoor spices, outdoor sauces that can provide a rich flavor are liquid types. Delicious dishes can be made with a little time and effort, such as marinating the ingredients, coating them, and baking them.

However, since it is a liquid containing water, care must be taken when carrying it. When transporting it, use it in an airtight container that won't drip.

The liquid type is a seasoning recommended for those who want to enjoy slightly elaborate cooking outdoors.

How to choose ③ Pouch type makes it easy to carry

Many outdoor spices are sold in jars, but pouches are easier to carry. Since they can be stacked or inserted into gaps, they can be carried compactly without taking up much space.

Seasonings to bring to camping

From here, we will introduce seasonings that are useful when camping. At the very least, bring salt, pepper, and oil. We recommend that you bring along other seasonings depending on the dish or occasion you want to make.

Salt, pepper, and oil are essential seasonings

When cooking, we almost always use oil, salt, and pepper.

There are different types of oil such as olive oil, salad oil, and sesame oil. Bring an oil that suits the dish, such as olive oil for pasta or ajillo, or sesame oil if you want to add flavor.

Salt and pepper, which are often used for seasoning, are also essential items. It can also be used as an accent to the flavor of cooked dishes. This highly versatile three-piece set of salt, pepper, and oil is a must-have seasoning.

Convenient to have soy sauce, sugar, mayonnaise, ketchup, sauce

A seasoning that is useful in a variety of cooking methods such as stir-frying, boiling, and grilling. The flavors are strong, and each one on its own is the deciding factor.

It is a convenient seasoning to have, as it can be used not only alone, but also by mixing it with soy sauce and mayonnaise to make soy sauce mayonnaise, or mayonnaise and ketchup to make aurora sauce.

However, please note that mayonnaise, ketchup, and sauce must be stored in a cool place after opening. Household-sized products are bulky in the cooler box, so it is best to choose single-use products or small-sized products that can be divided into separate compact containers.

Convenient seasonings to have

In addition to the seasonings listed above, it is also useful to have yakiniku sauce, which is useful for BBQ, mentsuyu, which is useful in various dishes, and ponzu sauce, which is useful when you want to refresh your food.

It is a seasoning that can be made by combining other seasonings, such as ``Vinegar + Soy Sauce = Ponzu'', but it requires a lot of seasoning and is time-consuming. If you're not particularly particular about homemade, it's a convenient seasoning to bring along depending on the occasion.

Yakiniku sauce and ponzu sauce, like mayonnaise, must be stored in a cool place after opening. If you have more than you can use, transfer it to a separate compact container and take it with you.
