At a push you could add hot water to the packet and eat like that, but was pretty dry inside everything and so very cardboard like.

Never add extra salt (sometimes important if you've been burning it) until after it has finished rehydrating, and preferably once finished cooking as it stops the rehydration.

You're onto it gadget. Soak it for as long as possible and then heat it at the end. Down side is that you have to clean the billy, the up side is it tastes slightly less like cardboard.

Also don't be stingy on the water. Better to be a bit sloppy than dry on the inside. Eating it half re-hydrated is bad for your guts. You don't poo for three days and then one morning you feel like you have given birth.

Yeah but you still go too far with the water I've had a few back country cuisine meals of roast chicken and vegetable soup
