Mountain House Scrambled Eggs with Uncured Bacon
What it is
This is a freeze-dried meal designed for convenience and portability. It contains scrambled eggs and pieces of uncured bacon. The freeze-drying process removes moisture, preserving the food's texture and flavor for extended periods. It is intended to be a quick and easy meal option for various situations.
How people cook with it
This meal is ideal for situations where fresh ingredients and cooking facilities are limited. It offers a hot meal with minimal preparation.
- Camping and backpacking
- Emergency preparedness kits
- Quick breakfast at home
- Travel meals
To prepare this meal, you simply need to add hot water. Carefully open the pouch and remove the oxygen absorber. Add the specified amount of boiling water directly into the pouch. Stir thoroughly to ensure all the freeze-dried ingredients are rehydrated. Close the pouch and let it stand for the recommended time, usually around 5-10 minutes, allowing the food to fully cook and soften. Stir again before eating directly from the pouch.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh scrambled eggs and bacon, this product is shelf-stable and requires no refrigeration before opening. The freeze-drying process creates a lighter product with a longer shelf life compared to canned or refrigerated meal options, and it retains more of its original texture and taste.
Who it is for
This meal is suitable for outdoor enthusiasts, travelers, and anyone seeking a convenient, ready-to-eat meal.
How to keep the rest
Store unopened pouches in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Properly stored, it can last for many years. Once opened, consume immediately or store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within one day.
