Ancient Devonian Soup – Tiny Wood Stove Cookery Taken Back To Its Roots
Cooking on a tiny wood stove began with our prehistoric ancestors, who sat around the fire and cooked up tasty broths of summer vegetables and smoked meats. We decided to sprinkle a little of this flavour into this Hobbit kitchen recipe for ‘summer vegetable soup’!
We gathered the vegetables and herbs from our own garden, meaning that they were products of our own hard labour, rather than simply bought from the aisle of a supermarket. Tiny wood stove cookery is based around the need to be a little more patient, as lighting a small wood burning stove and cooking on a small wood burning stove takes a little longer than simply flicking a switch. This makes cooking on a tiny wood stove even more rewarding, and we cooked the soup on our magpie Hobbit stove.
