Cook a Raw Egg, in its Shell, in Campfire Ashes:
When a cooking pot or pan is unavailable in the wild, the wood charcoal ashes of a campfire will do just fine to cook an egg that may have been found in a nest.
With a knife or rock, carefully peck a hole (1/4 - 1/2 inch) in one end of the egg shell.
If you want to spice up the taste, add salt, pepper or herbs in the hole and stir the inside with a small stick or shake the egg with your thumb over the hole.
Place the egg (hole up) on hot camp fire [white] ashes (NOT red coals). No need to pack ashes completely around the egg.
The egg will cook from the bottom up so when the egg in the hole has turned white (about 40 minutes for a standard chicken egg), it's ready to eat after letting it cool.
