Notes about Galley Cooking Recommendations

We’re in the process of updating each recipe with a PRINT RECIPE feature. You’ll notice at the end of every PRINT RECIPE card are Galley Cooking Recommendations. These are indicators of best conditions to prepare each recipe on your sailboat. They are not hard and fast rules; you Galley Pirates out there can best judge your comfort level when cooking aboard. The three key indicators are:

Safest to prepare at anchor or at a dock. Not recommended for motoring or sailing.

Safest at anchor or at a dock, but can be prepared under way in calm seas.

Safest at anchor or at a dock, can be prepared under way in calm seams and can be prepared ahead for offshore cruising.
