Hardtack, and boy is it hard! They need further drying and maturing.


To us it’s something from the past, over 150 years old. There’s one baker left who makes them against a hefty price. Now popular with ‘preppers’. Yours are square, ours are round (British navy style). Just flour, water and salt makes the dough. I saw a short documentary about them and wanted to make them myself. Next up is hellfire stew (Google it 😀), if I can muster the courage…….Holy cow Frans, you want to know something? 😮
I literally had no idea what Hardtack was. 😊🤯So thank YOU for not only
the ultra cool post, but also lesson.Boy oh boy, I always seem to be
learning something new every day and that is the 100% truth sir !
P.S. Can you tell us if you have this a lot. Or if it's something everyone has
a lot there. 😀In any case, very very cool sir ! ..Thanks so so much for the
post as well as lesson !!!
