Cooking for Caseg Fraith Trip, November 2017

This is a wiki (editable web page) to organise cooking for this weekend’s trip to Caseg Fraith.

Its a big, well equipped kitchen: 16 hotplates, 2 ovens and a microwave. Two large larder fridges, small freezer. All pots, pans, cutlery, crockery, tea towels, washing up liquid etc. provided.

Click edit at the top to change the text (you’ll need to be logged in to your account on the website first – click here to register if you don’t have one). You can either suggest a meal idea or join one of the existing ones and you’re obviously also welcome to sort yourself out (move your name to Independent). Please remove your name from the Not yet signed-up for meal list to o once you’re in a group or have decided to cook alone. The person who suggests the meal is responsible for arranging the ingredients – everyone else in the group should bring money on the trip to pay for their share, and expect to help with the preparation and washing up.

Timetable

Meal suggestions by Tuesday evening. Finalise groups by Wednesday evening so the person suggesting the meal knows how much they have to buy and has a couple of days to do the shopping.

Mulled wine (not a meal substitute)

Mulled wine is a bit of tradition for the Caseg Fraith Trip: we're planning to cook a pretty decent amount for all those that sign up here! It'll be £3 per person.

Be sure to sign up for a meal too...
