Author's note: Beef stroganoff, which is served over rice or fettucine, is traditionally made with filet of beef, mushrooms, onions and sour cream, and a pinch of nutmeg. Dried beef, dried mushrooms and dried onions are surprisingly good substitutes in the backcountry. If you don't have sour cream powder on hand, you can substitute one or two individually portioned packets of cream cheese; add after the stroganoff has cooked. I've called for Chinese noodles, bt you can also use instant rice
