Papua New Guinea Cooking Methods
Post PNG, in its effort to continually promote traditional methods, has released another stamp issue featuring cooking methods in Papua New Guinea. Cooking Methods, as featured are just a few of the many used. Their applications vary from area to area.
In this issue, featured on the four postage stamp sets are four different methods of cooking; boiling of food over open fire in clay pot, drying or smoking of fish on a raised bed of about a meter over open fire, drying of fish inside a clay jar with holes at side of the jar and roasting of food over very hot embers of an open fire.
In rural Papua New Guinea, majority in the very remote areas prefer the traditional methods to cook their food. Most cook over an open fire.
Food is either wrapped in leaves or placed directly into the fire. In some areas the food is cooked in clay pots or green bamboo placed in the fire.
