Using 'indoor' pots and pans I'd recommend smearing with washing up liquid which will protect their surfaces and make them much easier to clean. People cooking on wood stoves should aim to cook over glowing embers, not flame.<BR/><BR/>With todays central heating, be aware some gas cookers for external use only do produce some nasties which require venting, so when cooking open a window and make sure you're cooking on a fireproof surface.<BR/><BR/>You can also make lanterns from coke cans - be careful though they can slice your fingers off.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06427894967468523651noreply@blogger.com
