FOOD: TRY AN EDIBLE EXPEDITION

Just what does one eat while on an adventure to clean up garbage on the Antarctic Peninsula? All sorts of savoury dishes, like asparagus pâté and Ukrainian cabbage rolls, according to Wendy Trusler and Carol Devine’s memoir/cookbook/travelogue, The Antarctic Book of Cooking and Cleaning. The recipes were collected from fellow bottom-of-the-world visitors and tested in a makeshift Antarctic kitchen. Here’s the book’s easiest recipe—Sea Cabbage (Laminaria) Salad—if you have access to kelp! 1. Collect living kelp.* 2. Clean with fresh water. 3. Cut. 4. Add onion, garlic, mayo.
