    Cooking from Canterbury to Rome

    Recipe ideas for easy cooking

    Just back from Santiago, I've started planning my next wee walk. One thing I've noticed frequently when shopping, is other pilgrims just standing there looking at all the food on the shelves, short-circuiting, unable to come up with ideas for cooking their own meals. This led me to the thought...

    Advice from prior hospitaleros

    I'm interested in hearing experiences of those who have served as hospitalero. It's something I have never done but would love to do - a way of giving back to the Camino I love so much. I wonder if it's anything like leading a group? I have to admit I did not do a good job my first time...

    Stove or no stove?

    I'm planning a winter hike on the El Camino and was wondering if I should plan on bring my camp stove? It's an ultra light pocket rocket so weight isn't a concern, but I'm not sure if I'll use it. If I do want to bring it will I even be able to buy fuel for it in Spain?

    What did you cook along the camino?

    A just-for-fun question. I know many people (including me) do a lot of cooking along the camino, either to save money or to get out of the "pilgrim menú" rut. I'm feeling nostalgic for the many pasta dinners and bottles of cheap red wine, as well as the impossibly rich Greek yogurt I used to...
