Hoosh (occasionally spelt hooch[1]) is a thick stew made from pemmican (a mix of dried meat, fat, and cereal) or other meat, thickener such as ground biscuits, and water.[2][3][4] It was the common food of early twentieth century Antarctic expeditions, used, for example, by the expeditions of Robert Falcon Scott (1910–1913) and Ernest Shackleton (1914–1916).[5][6]

Sometimes, the term was also used for mixed food rations for ponies and mules (e.g. in The Worst Journey of the World by Apsley Cherry-Garrard).
