Our latest recipe, Ternabout’s White Chili, couldn't be easier to prepare aboard a small boat...
In a departure from our usual "You Caught It, You Cook It" feature, our latest recipe is not a seafood dish. However, while not created from your latest 'catch', this delicious and easy-to-make recipe is ideally suited for owners of small- and mid-sized boats. In fact, we got this recipe straight out of the new book,
Cooking Aboard a Small Boat, the latest of several books for boaters by Paul Esterle (A.K.A. Capt'n Pauley). The book is a treasure chest of meals that are easy to make for those of us with smaller boats. We're talking no galley, a dorm-room size fridge (or none at all), and, if you're lucky, some sort of heat source that could pass for a stove.
The first recipe that Capt'n Pauley has shared with us is for something he calls
Ternabout’s White Chili. "Ternabout" is the name of Esterle's 20-footer. She’s been in the family for years and was the inspiration for one of his earlier books,
Optimizing the Trailerable Sailboat, as well as serving as a test bed for his latest book
Cooking Aboard a Small Boat. This is one of his favorites, made from non-refrigerated stores he usually has aboard. We hope you enjoy it...
