North to the Future
Just a bit of preps and thinking about how much we need salt. I live by the ocean…in fact, Alaska has over 6600 miles of coastline!
A few years ago I got involved with a great locovore group - had a challenge to ONLY partake of locally sourced foods (within Alaska) for 6 months. Grains, check. Meats/seafood, check. Veg, check. Fruit…maybe berries? Nuts, nope, sorry! Sweeteners, check. Salt….salt? Well, happened a couple guys had already done it…seawater evaporation to get what the ocean has. Not anywhere that boats moor…so bear that in mind
This website is pretty close to what they taught us. I did it a few years back, should really try again.
Just info for those of you interested
