Thank you for an update. I have both the bowls and cooking bags. Have painted, with food safe flat black paint pint and quart canning jars. A strip of masking tape, removed after painting, gives a window to see the contents of the jar. I need to look for that larger stew pot. So far, the small oval Graniteware roaster pan works well in the bags. Thanks for sharing.

With baked goods I have the problem of condensation on the plastic bag dripping randomly. It looks like the Teflon sheet reduces the bag condensation but did it create the furrow in the Middle of the brownies?

I use clips to hold the sheet taut over the brownies. Hope this helps

Just made No Knead Bread today. Came out great! While it doesn’t get brown and crusty, the inside “crumb” was perfection. Clear So CA skies, 87 high, in at 11am, done by 2pm. Used cooking bag and (preheated 30 minutes in Sol Cooker) lidded dark pot. I do have a photo I can share.

Yes, please share. For browning I sometimes will put a "grill mat" over the bread a few minutes before it is done. This is a very powerful method of putting heat directly onto the top of your bread, so watch it and don't let it burn. BBQ grill mat is available in the BBQ section of Lowes, or online. They are food safe. Available in black or copper. Use the black.

Did you used less water with the dough ? Because I heard you should use less water with solar ovens ?
@JimLaJoieAllSeasonSolarCooker4 ай бұрын
We used the recipe right off the box. Water was not reduced. There are times when reduced water may be used. For rice, about 3/4 the normal amount of water. For vegetables, very little water as they will cook in their own juices. For long simmering foods such as dried beans, keep an iye on them and add water if needed. Solar cooking will. not boil off as much water as other cooking methods.

I just finished watching the assembly of the all seasons solar cooker. I’m not necessarily known as the brightest light on the block, and I love doing things the easy way, rather than trying to figure out a paper full of diagrams. I think the only way your cooker could be any better [after looking at many different solar cookers yours is my favorite] would be to put it on some type of disc mount like some TV antenna discs. It would be so much easier to move around and adjust for the sun shadow. I love what you have created so beautifully,… so much that I am going to buy one! Thanks for the video.

Funny you should ask. I forgot all about the potatoes and did not take them off until the end of the day when cleaning up. They were more than done. That being said, from experience I know that baked russet potatoes are usually cooked within an hour - depending on size. Smaller is easier. For fish I like baby reds or golden creamers.

Back then we had to stick the many reflective tape strips by hand on the inside! I still have the cooker, it is still in perfect condition, and it’s still one of my favorite things. It makes the best, moist, herbed chicken breasts. Good to see you here on KZbin 😊

Thanks for the new assembly video. Helped me ensure that mine, which arrived a week ago, is properly put together. I hope you make more videos on using and cooking with it. I've been solar cooking for a few years now with the All-American Sun Oven, which I love. But I wanted to try yours because of the larger cooking space and, well, because I wanted another solar oven. I've used it several times so far, and I'm thrilled that I bought it. I'm still getting used to focusing it correctly. Have cooked lamb, beef, eggs, rice, potatoes and peppers. I'm in Albuquerque which gets sun year-round, so I'm looking forward to using it often. So far I've gotten it up to 250 degrees. Does that sound about right? Thanks.
@JamesLaJoie Жыл бұрын
While cooking in the So Cal smog, 230 is what I normally get. In your location, with the clean air and higher elevation, you will do better. How you record your temperature makes a huge difference. While cooking, if using an oven thermometer, you will see a combined temperature of the cold food and the cooking environment. (this is why your regular oven turns on even after preheating - the cold food reduces the temperature in the oven compartment. To see much higher temperatures, just put the oven thermometer in an empty pot. Of course this is meaningless as the temp drops as soon as the food goes in. In all my years of experimenting, my highest recorded temperature was 335 in a black jar filled with cooking oil. The goal is cooked food and it sounds like you are doing very well.
