The Boat Galley Cookbook: 800 Everyday Recipes and Essential Tips for Cooking Aboard by Carolyn Shearlock
When we couldn't get foods such as sour cream, English muffins, spaghetti sauce or yogurt, we adapted recipes to make our own. This book recipes made from readily-obtainable ingredients with hand utensils, including numerous choices to suit every taste: not just one cake but 20, 16 ways to prepare fish, 10 regional barbeque sauces, and so on.
"The Boat Galley Cookbook is the most useful, comprehensive sailing cookbook I've foundIt has 800 recipes specially designed for cooking within the confines of a galley and thorough sections on substitutions (for when you can't find fancy ingredients), on making your own spices, and on using limited space wisely. The authors, Carolyn Shearlock and Jan Irons, both live aboard part of the year and have a knack for teaching readers how to cook without electric devices or bulky utensils. They'll teach you how to turn a sharp knife and a whisk into a blender, a wine bottle into a rolling pin and a flipped-over baking dish into a cooking sheet. In this thoroughly researched book, they answer nearly every question I've ever had about cooking within the confines of a galley." Sail 20130627
Shearlock, Carolyn: - Long ago, Carolyn realized that there were two essential ingredients for great trips: sleeping well and eating well. Food didn't have to be fancy, but it shouldn't be a gray blob, either.
Over the years, trips have progressed from weekend Girl Scout camping trips to more rugged adventures on three continents lasting as long as four months. Both through her own trial and error and advice from others, Carolyn has refined her techniques for storing foods and cooking tasty meals, sometimes with a tiny refrigerator, sometimes with a cooler and sometimes with no way to cool food.
From 2002 to 2008, Carolyn lived aboard Que Tal, a Tayana 37 sailboat and cruised full time with her 117 husband. In 2010, she created her website, The Boat Galley, to help others navigate the challenges of provisioning, storing food and cooking aboard a small boat. In response to reader questions, the site has expanded to include buying a boat and gear, living on a boat, cruising and chartering, boat work and potential problems.
In 2012, she and Jan Irons published The Boat Galley Cookbook, a collection of 800 everyday recipes and cooking tips they'd each collected while cruising with their husbands. It has become the go-to galley reference book for cruisers... and many RVers and campers also appreciate the easy from-scratch recipes and extensive substitutions and variations to suit what's on hand.
In 2016 she began a podcast on Boat Radio. Carolyn, her husband Dave and dog Paz now live aboard their second cruising sailboat, Barefoot Gal.
