Flip the pot stand upside down, and center it over the tealight. Place your stove on the upside down pot stand. In just a minute your Trangia will be warmed up, now just set the stove up like normal, and light it (you could also use the tealight to warm up water for a cup of coco instead of lighting the Trangia). Campfire Pizza:Satisfy your cravings with a campfire pizza cooked on the Trangia pan. Spread pizza dough on the pan, and add tomato sauce, cheese, and your favourite toppings like sliced veggies, pepperoni, and olives. Cover and cook until the dough is crispy and the cheese is melted. Flame control, it has a simmer ring, but I mostly stir to reduce the chance of burning foods. It's just easier that way. I hope you enjoyed this post on recipe ideas for trangia stove and that you get out into the wild and give them a try.

If you count grams and ounces, this may not be the stove for you as penny stoves/Pepsi can stoves certainly weight less, but it's a long stretch to call the Trangia Mini 28 heavy. If you aren't a gram and ounce counter ultralight/minimalist hiker, this stove is great to have along if you ever find yourself in need of an extra burner—that's how I use it—as a compliment to my main stove. This stove will boil two quarts of water on just over an ounce of fuel. So keeping this in mind an 8-ounce fuel bottle will last you about 6 days making coffee in the morning and a dehydrated meal at night. Once you finish boiling or cooking, just simply drop the simmer plate over the stove and this extinguishes the stove. To use the simmer lid with the stove just slide it to the open position and adjust the flame to the level desired.Here I will give you a list of recipes I love cooking when camping using my Trangia stove. These recipe ideas for the trangia stove will give you a greater appreciation of cooking outdoors. The Trangia cooking system allows you to cook excellent meals when out in the wild. Trangia Recipe Ideas: I usually take it on day hikes, or it lives in my car. It's not my first choice stove, for multi-day excursions, or complex cooking tasks.

Boil times, add about two minutes to what you think the boil times should be if you are used to using a canister stove. It doesn't cook as hot as a canister stove, but for cooking that is sometimes a good thing. The pot lifter is a bit short so it can be stored/hauled in the pot, but being a bit short it can heat up. Just be aware of that. The burner is encased in a necessarily smaller, lighter stand and everything fits neatly inside the pot, including a skinny pot gripper, with the pan lid snapping shut, securely. Camp cooking can be a delicious and rewarding part of any camping adventure, and one cooking system that offers both convenience and versatility is the Trangia stove. With its compact and lightweight design, the Trangia stove is popular among campers for its reliability and ease of use.Note:Remember to follow proper safety precautions when cooking on a Trangia stove, such as using it in a well-ventilated area, keeping a fire extinguisher or water source nearby, and using caution with open flames. Adjust cooking times and heat levels depending on your Trangia model and environmental conditions. Tips for Preparing Ahead of Time The canister is faster and easier. But the canisters are expensive, you don't know how much gas you have left (unless you time it and do some math), and you wind up with a bunch of partially empty canisters in your gear box. Ok I have been out of the game for a while but it hasn't been that long anyway. I use to rough-it and cook over a fire but that has its problems like rain. So in my search for a stove I ruled out all petroleum based and pressurized fuels and that don't leave much. With creativity and the convenience of a Trangia stove, you can enjoy delicious meals while camping outdoors. Just pour a little fuel in the aluminum potstand of the 28, place the spirit burner in the potstand as you normally do with the lid off, and light the fuel in the bottom by inserting a lit match through one of the air holes in the side. This will not only pre-warm the spirit burner, but also light it after a while. If you pre-warm, use a windscreen, and leave the lid on the pot, you will get a lot faster boil times than most people would have you believe.

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches:Nothing beats a classic grilled cheese sandwich cooked on the Trangia pan. Spread butter on bread slices, add cheese slices, and cook on the pan until the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted. Lentil Stew:Warm up with a hearty stew cooked in the Trangia pot. Combine lentils, diced veggies, tomato sauce, vegetable broth, and herbs like thyme and rosemary. Let it simmer on the gas burner until the tender lentils and the flavours meld together. Things I dislike: I wish the simmer ring was more of a lobster claw design (meaning two leaves that open) as opposed to the single plate which ends up offsetting your flame under your pot. It may seem silly for me to write this, but a few others on the internet claimed the lid was difficult to use when cooking because they couldn't get it unsnapped without burning their fingers! Then I found Trangia. A simple, time-tested burner design that is idiot-proof. Well, to clarify that a little, it's idiot-proof for someone cautious and attentive. It doesn't get simpler to actually fire up — just pour in fuel and light — in a few seconds (depending on how cold it is) you will have a nice steady flame ready for your pot.The versatility of the Trangia Cookset:One of the unique features of the Trangia stove is its versatile cookset, which includes a pot, pan, and windscreen. This allows for various cooking techniques, from boiling water for pasta or coffee to frying up a campfire omelette or sautéing veggies in the pan. The windscreen also helps to shield the flame from wind, ensuring efficient and safe cooking even in challenging weather conditions. Summing up: Avoid, unless you will cook only in sheltered locations. Get the Trangia 27-1 instead, which is a great stove. The extra size and weight will be offset by greater fuel efficiency if your trip is longer than just a couple of days. I used this stove on several week long hikes this summer in the eastern Sierras and found no real issues with this product. I have yet to use it in freezing weather conditions, so maybe I will update you on this in the winter months.

About the lid/frypan: it snaps on for storage and transport. To use it when cooking, invert the lid on the pot. When inverted, it has a rebated rim that keeps it from sliding off in the same way the pot rests on the pot stand. Plus you can use the pot grab to remove it.

So with my Trangia in "storage mode" I have in it: the stove, snuffer cap/simmer ring, the storage cap, potstand, potlifter, windscreen folded up, a three inch long strip of cardboard to ease lighting (not needed, but nice to have), and the tealight.
