Cooking up my Pemmican - Erbswurst Hybrid

In this video I make a pot of soup using a hybrid mixture of pemmican and erbswurst

My friend Mark … Another excellent video and recipe of sorts. This combination with a few squirts of Trappey’s Hot Sauce and you have the makings of one whale of a trail meal. Some instant rice might be nice to pour this over. Wonderful video!!! God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Atascocita (Houston), Texas, USA. ✝️🎣👨‍🌾🦌🙏

I followed your recipe for erbswurst, it turned out excellent, cooked it up later with diced salami and a hand full of dehydrated vegetables .

Pemmican
Erbswurst
Peanut butter
All are high fat, high protein. Great survival food. Great soup base.

This is a great series. I will definitely try making some erbswurst when I next have some leftover pork fat, and I think your idea of using a soup mix rather than just peas is very ingenious. I am very much looking forward to seeing your review of that mess kit - I have one very similar which hasn't been used yet. Thank you again for these interesting videos.

Very interesting. Great stuff to have a stock of, either for hiking or, should a temporary social situation (weather event) occur. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day!

Wow what a great idea - mixing both worlds together is super convenient.
I was thinking up and down how to name that new food and came to many names and ideas. Instead of finding a completely new term for that creation I thought about how to connect both the names in a way that the basic thing is still anyhow visible. And even though I'm a total Erbswurst lover, I think the honour for being one of the eldest and maybe best working and longest standing emergency foods belongs definitely to Pemmikan, so for me that hybrid is more to see as a variation/extension of Pemmikan than a variation/extension of the Erbswurst.
So finally I thought what would honour the peas in the Erbswurst as well as the Pemmikan as the other ingredient is maybe something like term "Peammican". 😁

Forever soup? Someone else suggested Erbican and I really like that actually. Thank you for sharing your experiences with both the Pemmican and the Erbswurst Mark. It's interesting stuff.

have you uploaded your video on the Austrian mess kit? i cannot find it

I have been following this series with interest. One correction: Erbswurst dates from 1867, not 1900, and may have been carried by old soldiers in WWI (I have been read that some old soldiers thought highly of it so got it on their own), but by 1914 it was no longer being issued. It was not issued in WWII, either; they had a very different iron ration for that.

Good video Mark, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !

Thanks for anticipating my question in your video. I was wondering if you were in a pinch if you could nibble on it as is. Any idea the nutrition values? I was wondering how it could compare to something you could buy that is commercially made (I expect yours would be better).

Pemswurst/Pemwurst. I think I would make it without spices. That way, I could make it in a bullion cube.✌️🇨🇦🇺🇸✌️

If you’re making something like this for an emergency food, in my opinion, it shouldn’t be too seasoned and tasty, because pemmican is so calorie dense, and also not meant to be eaten all up in one day.
I have a similar cook kit. It’s great and with the locking bail, pretty convenient. I also got a cook kit that is the same shape, slips over the bottom for storage, and has flaps that fold down to keep it at the right height when using the big military trangia, which came with it. Takes up no space, and is aluminum so it doesn’t weigh much at all. Works amazingly well.

Very interesting video, thank you for making it.

Saw another viewer comment suggesting it be called "peammican". If it is a vote that has mine.

Has your review of the Austrian mess kit been released yet?

[dwaynewladyka]

Looks pretty good to me. As a long term storage food, that would be ideal. It's amazing how people found pemmican in parts of Canada that was really old, and it was still edible. Erbican? Cheers, Mark! ✌️🇨🇦

[jimf]

Pemmiwurst is my name, or since rubabo was the old pemmican stew, maybe rubawurst?

[grampabuckshot]

Just how long does the erbswurst keep? Thinking about making a batch to keep in long term storage. An old timer once told me to cook applesauce in an alluminum pot/pan if it turns pink get rid of it.
