Trek'n Eat Couscous with Chicken

With this delicious meal, the culinary trip this time will take you to the Maghreb. The mouth-watering couscous with chicken is waiting for outdoor fans to gather in a relaxed get-together around the nightly camp fire. As with all other Trek‘n Eat meals, this couscous contains neither added preservatives nor added taste enhancers.

The Trek’n Eat range of menus is being enlarged with the addition of “Borscht” – a Russian stew. Whereas borscht made in the traditional manner requires a long cooking time at a low temperature, its preparation using the freeze-dried ingredients of Trek’n Eat takes no more than 10 minutes. For this outdoor menu, a large number of fresh and nutritious ingredients have been blended with great passion, such as beef, carrots, savoy cabbage, red beet juice, and celeriac. The meal contains neither colorants, preservatives, nor added taste enhancers and is gluten-free and low in fat.

Meals from Trek’n Eat are created withquality freeze-dried ingredients, and thus maintain most of the food‘s natural vitamins and minerals. Few flavour enhancers and flavourings are used in creating Trek’n Eat foods; this also makes the pot easier to clean. Trek’n Eat foods have a higher calorie count and are packaged in waterproof, expedition-ready containers.

Freeze-drying is a technical drying process which takes advantage of water‘s unique physical characteristics. In a vacuum chamber, frozen water transforms directly from a solid state into gas (sublimitation). Freeze-dried meals are made by instantly freezing foods and then drying it in a vacuum chamber. In this manner, the water within the food does not melt; but is removed as steam. All that is required to restore the food is hot water. The light weight, simple preparation and fuel savings have caused mountain climbers, expeditions and trekkers to embrace freezedried foods – which are quickly becoming a part of all outdoor activities.
