Simple Sailing Recipes
I wanted to share some of the recipes that I regularly use while out cruising. I can't claim them as my own but I have adapted some of them to suit us. Some of these recipes have been shared from other cruising families from a wide variety of countries. While baking these recipes I have been heeling heavily on the yacht and still managing to get a good result! If I can do it anyone can!! I hope you enjoy them.
Over night fridge bread
Ingredients
1 teaspoon of salt.
800ml of flour
2 tablespoons of dried yeast.
500ml tepid water
Method
Mix all ingredients together. Place in a greased baking tin. Place in the fridge. The cooler your fridge the less amount of time needed in it. Once the mixture has risen place in a pre heated oven for approx. one hour. tip out of tin and place on a tray, place back in the oven upside down. cook for a further 10-15 minutes.

Is lovely eaten warm, eat within two days. The texture is quite moist with large air holes. This is quite popular with yachties as there is no kneading involved!!

Our children love these. They can be cooked a little longer to make them quite crunchy.
