Simple and tasty recipes for your adventure

Going on a canoe bivouac offers total immersion in nature, but that does not mean sacrificing the pleasures of good cuisine . Whether you are a gourmet adventurer or a lover of simple and tasty dishes, here are some recipes suitable for cooking easily and deliciously during your canoe trip.

Grilled potatoes in the embers

• Potatoes
• Aluminum foil
• Salt
• Butter (optional)

Wash and wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil. Cook them directly in the embers of the fire. Consider making your fire in a mini-barbecue. Serve them with a pinch of salt and butter if desired.

Camembert flowing over embers, to share

• Camembert with a wooden box
• Aluminum
• Thyme
• Supplement according to your tastes (onion, honey, shallot, etc.)

Take the camembert out of its laminated paper and put it back in its wooden box without the lid. Decorate your camembert with the ingredients of your choice to add flavor. Close it in aluminum foil and let it cook in the embers at the end of your barbecue.

Skewers and flame-cooked vegetables

• Varied and seasonal vegetables
• Piece of chicken or turkey breast
• Wooden picks
• Seasoning

Cut the chicken or turkey fillets into cubes. Cut your vegetables into large pieces and form your skewers. The rest of the vegetables can be used for a stir-fry or grilled on the barbecue.

The farandole of local products

• Rocamadours also called “cabécou”
• A terrine or dried duck breast
• A Quercy melon
• Strawberries from Corrèze

To share at aperitif time!

And for dessert ?

Each end of the day brings you to one of our charming little villages in the Dordogne Valley where you will find something to refuel within a maximum of 5/10 minutes on foot from the riverside. Finally, it's a good opportunity to enjoy fresh produce or try local restaurants!
