After a short or a long hike in the mountains, you get hungry. If you’re comfortable with dry food such as biscuits, chocolates, cereal bars, then ok. But if you want something more, you should have something to cook with.
To do this job, you will get help by the cooking set we have found. Capacity 1.4 liters. Weight only 690 gr. It consists of :
1 pan with insulated folding handles
1 pot
2 plates
2 cups
1 tongs
1 storage mess bag
1 bag for tongs
1 bag for plates
All of the above are nesting each other, in order to have, the smallest possible space in your backpack.
The lid is less deep and it is the pan. Open the handles, in order to make one ergonomic handle and here it is. The pot is deeper. To use it, you should also use the tongs. The whole set is made of steel with a special coating of non-stick material. The dishes are made of aluminum and the cups are from special, suitable for food, plastic. The whole set is compact and can be placed in the net bag so it is convenient for storage and transportation.
We did the test, for you and the results were very good. The pan and the pot have a equable heat distribution with fast diffusion. One disadvantage is that the non-stick coating is easily scratched with sharp objects, so be careful. The dishes and the cups are very convenient. Also the tongs of the pot is very practical to use. Both the dishes and the tongs are placed in special bags, so that they cannot scratch the pot during transportation. Finally, the net bag is very practical on drying the plates and cups, after laundry. You can place them in the bag and hang them on the nearby tree.
The set is made in Germany and costs only 11,99 Euros, when others, big brand sets, are having twice the price.
Small size and light weight, in order not to burden your backpack and your waist, small price, in order not to burden your pocket.
