Today our friend Patty with SolChef came to teach us about solar cooking. We had no idea we could cook just about anything using the energy from the sun!

First Patty explained to us how the ovens work.
Next she showed us the various types and how you can bake in some and fry in others…

And last we got to eat!

While enjoying our treats, Patty informed us that over 1/3 of the world cooks their food over an open fire because they don’t have electricity. These people do not have clean water either. Solar ovens are an affordable way to cook and clean water. For more information check out Solar Cookers International.
