Powered By The Sun

In the summer, the sun blazes our kitchen in an abundance of light and unfortunately, heat. Thanks to our friend, we have discovered the power of the sun as our new alternative means of cooking. He had a solar oven and even though he showed us how easy it was to build, we decided to get one on the internet. A week after we ordered it, it arrived in a large box but it assembled in minutes. In actuality, we just had to unfold the reflective mirrors and steam some vinegar inside to "cure" it before using it. So far, we have cooked beef stew, baked two loaves of zucchini bread, and in this photo, Albondigas, which is meatball soup. We may not necessarily feel like eating soup on a hot day, but it's what I had in the pantry that had to be cooked up. I can leave it out there all day to cook and it won't burn. It's awesome. My zucchini bread came out moist and chewy like a dense brownie. It is portable, so we can take it anywhere.
