Very important demonstration. Would you consider reproducing this with a camera person and a greater eplanation of the process? Consider including a thermometer to examplify the temperatures obtained. Describe and film the reflective material that is your cooker? OVERALL, VERY GOOD. THANK YOU!!!

this guy can't even open water; how the hell are you going to trust him to cook for u? I have heard that the first lesson in cooking school is boiling water. He can't even open the water to cook it. He fails.

It is really hard opening a bottle with one hand with a camera in the other when the water is boiling hot! And I was recovering from vein surgery so most of my movement hurt.

Thank you gaiatechnician. You know - Dr Steven Jones is quite the celebrity now! ^_^ I had no idea he is espousing solar cookery - good for him! PLEASE ignore idiots such as 'longtang'. We thinking viewers salute you and your noble efforts - wonderful! PS: I adore Victoria!! I have a dear friend who lives out on Dallas Road, I think it is. She has the most incredible view of the Olympics south of her.

Hi landslave, You need cardboard or an old satellite dish ^_^ some smooth foil, or if you have the finances, large sheets of Mylar. The trick to keep whatever you're coking in from losing heat to the sky or wind is either large, turkey-size roasting bags (they are reusable if you take very good care of them), or large glass (Pyrex) containers to put the darker pot in.

(cooking - sorry) - anyway Find out your angle of declination (where are you on the globe?), then look up solar box cookers or solar cookers on the net here. Make yourself some solar box cookers, a 'Cook-It' and a few different kinds of solar cookers.

to 'can' food, just cap the canning jar with the lid and put the ring on but don't screw it down tight. To just cook stuff, look in the cheap pots
pans section of your local supermarket for those black metal pans, sometimes they have paint splattered on them (hence the name spatterware).
Dark glass (blue ... ( 1 year ago by WNanette)
Dark glass (blue Corning ware) or ceramic works, as well as cast iron, but they take a lot longer to heat up. OK, You have a solar box cooker all built, and your shiny side out foil is still really smooth and wrinkle-free. Aim it at the sun, tilting if need be, put your large roaster bag in the center but not touching the walls, in that put your glass or dark metal pot, preferably with a lid.
You can even coat ... ( 1 year ago by WNanette)
You can even coat glass jars (with lids) with black Tempura paint and use those to cook in. Close the bag with a twisty tie or put a lid on your large glass outer container and keep moving the box or Cook-It opening toward the sun as the day wears on. Your food will never burn, and it won't dry out. Dark foods work best.

I have a new solar cooker video where I have an inexpensive way of following the sun. I hope to make a much better prototype soon. Brian

Thanks for showing us a new twist to solar cooking - in mason jars no less - great idea.

If you add a little molasses to the water, it darkens a lot and absorbs heat better.

Hi Gaiatechnician,
It appears as though you used the rubber seal when you cooked with the canning jar. Have you ever had one of your canning jars explode? I just tried the experiment with a canning jar but I was reluctant to use the seal with the clamp as I cautioned that the pressure might shatter the glass if none of it(pressure) is allowed to escape. Great vids. and inspiring ideas.

Saw this on the internet 6 years ago. I use an old auto reflective shade I bought a Goodwill. Chicken Wing Adobo, Gumbo, and Minestrone Soup are favorites of students. Thanks for keeping simple.
