Sun Cook solar oven from Sun Cooking Australia
Sun Cooking in Australia is an organisation aimed at promoting solar cooking in Australia. Australia is one of the best places in the whole world for solar cooking! Located between the 29th to 46th latitudes, we have some of the highest rates of sunny days and low atmospheric haze, making it perfect conditions to cook all year around.
Sun Cooking currently imports the Sun Cook solar oven from Europe. It is a deluxe solar oven model which works as a combination of:
- an oven - used to bake breads, cakes, muffins, roasts etc
- a slow cooker - used to make delicious stews, soups, curries etc
- a steamer / kettle - used to boil water (useful for sterilization) and steam veggies etc
- a dehydrator - can dehydrate foods such as bananas, tomatoes, chillies, apricots, mangoes etc
- a canner / preserver - makes jams, preserves and caning acidic foods like tomatoes
- a thermal cooker - for rainy days or overnight bring a pot of food to boil on the conventional stove then wrap it in a towel and put into the solar oven, lid closed. The heat will be trapped and food continue to cook for hours. Perfect for rice, soups, legumes etc.
Sun Cooking in Australia is owned by Heather Stevens. Heather is a PhD student at the University of Newcastle researching the impacts of climate change on sea levels.
