While doing food prep for my 1930s camping trip, I experimented with a new way of making small lots of hard tack. Hard tack (or more properly Hard Bread) was widely used and available at the beginning of the 20th century, and was sold by outlets such as Abercrombie & Fitch. This method allows us to make small lots very quickly and results, at least in my opinion, a superior product.

I like your recipe and will try it thanks . When I first started camping my Grandmother would give me her Norwegian flat bread , it was much easier to eat compared to hard tac. I have also carried cornmeal to make hot water cornbread or a bag of homemade bisquit mix , bread is an important part of camping .

I've actually been looking at flatbread recipes. Sometimes I'll carry cornmeal if I'm going to be in camp for more than a day. I'll make mush, then set the leftovers out in a dish, cover it and keep it from bogs and such, then have fried mush for dinner. Hard bread is better if you're going to be on the move and need something quick and handy.

I did some research on flat breads and when I locate them I will send them to you. There are receipts from many different types of flour .

Hi Sarge, according to what I've read, in the trenches of WW1 one of the nicknames British Tommies gave the issue biscuits was Spratts which was a reference to the company Spratts which was famous for making highly regarded dog biscuits used by everyone from the Royal Family down, little did they know that because of their expertise and their capacity the company had actually been awarded a Government contract to supply said biscuits ( to the experts if I'm wrong please don't shoot me down)

I didn't know that. I've not studied much about the Brits, mainly the Doughboys. Thanks!

Theoretically, if kept away from bugs and moisture, indefinitely. During the Age of Sail, they were loaded into sailing ships by the barrel full for journeys that would last for a couple years. Basically, flour is a way to store wheat longer, and hardbread is a way to store flour indefinitely. Thanks for watching!

Ain't that the truth? BTW, that's the listing in the 1916 Abercrombie & Fitch catalog.
