Solar cooking with Denise using a parabolic mirror to concentrate sunlight to a cast iron skillet. Also included is a homemade salsa from fruit. greenpowerscie...

[@VinceDonkovWorks]

Dan: "Hun the ratings are down again :/" Denise: "No problemo darling - cooking time ;-)"

[@Gradechecker1]

I remember when she wore the bathing suit!! I bet she looks just as good today!

[@videoshomepage]

Put the flesh side down first so the oils in the skin flow through the meat as it cooks.

[@gadgetmantwincities]

Dan, I don't know how you get any work done with Denise around! She reminded me of daisy duke in that outfit! You are 1 blessed man!

[@blackz06]

@2:11 had me wanting a piece of Denise! lol

[@SexycuteStudios]

Love you both

[@muh1h1]

This looked absolutely delicious, i'm hungry now :D

[@joshuakalaniparks9084]

Yum! Awesome videos!

[@DON351W]

I had to really look to find out if you guys had any new post, been wondering

[@dire67]

Have you been off for a while? I haven't been getting your videos. BTW, no offense but your wife's hot enough to cook that salmon without any outside heat. lol

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Hi Abe, Thank you for the awesome comment. We have been uploading a lot lately: kzbin.infovideos?sort=dd&view=0&shelf_id=1 Not sure what is up with KZbin feeds.

Dan-Dan the Lucky Man!

[@mani5004]

Rojas is a lucky guy!

[@TheMick26]

Hey Dan & Denise.🙋 Now that's some Slammin' Salmon and Salsa right there! Looks awesome!😍 Hope you two lovebirds have a wonderful Labor Day weekend! Cheers!

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Thank you Mick! Have a great Holiday too.

[@better.better]

They were already over-done when you flipped them the first time. You can tell by how firm they were. Probably, you only need to heat the pan, put the fish in, and slap a lid on it without the solar input for the 10 minutes

[@danoneill2846]

thanks

[@MeesterVegas]

Love that salsa recipe, gonna try it with some fish I catch down here in Texas.

[@KylesYTU]

That salmon looks great

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

Never laughed so hard, Dan sure was hungry. Now you see it now you don't.

[@howiboy]

really cool stuff

[@101AOK]

Apparently there are "mushrooms" in that non-electric/electric salad. Also at 0:40 you had us worried for a moment. (lol) Happy holiday Monday and may you both have many a solar dinner.

[@william38022]

Pretty cool 😎

[@smasimulationshop1028]

Dear Denise, The secret for a good cooking is not the butter (in my opinion) but a good 100% extra olive oil (Spanish preferibly). I know it is expensive to buy in the US, but it's worthy and much much healthier. Also, you should try salmon without anything else (no salsa). Please buy Norwegian salmon and cook it just with olive oil and seasalt...you tell me ;) Thank you guys!

[@cacmex]

Nice!!!!!!

[@Nichen]

This technology would be great for Africa so they dont need to chop down their trees for cooking-fuel! Thanks for a great show guys, you are the cutest couple EVER.

[@bigass197]

Couldn't stop laughing towards the end of the video. Dan sure was hungry a ? And that save with the 36 hours lol. Great stuff you guys :)))

[@MichelPASTOR]

Looked delicious, well done.

[@WarblesOnALot]

G'day, Very cool... The 10 Ft-Tall Tripod is an interesting bit of Kit...; I might have to think about that one..., maybe even set one up to play with. I've been playing around with a 0.46 Square Metre Satellite Dish, to which I added Aluminium Foil (in triangular Segments, held on with Contact Cement...), initially I was running a Coffee Percolator with it...; with some success - although it is a bit underpowered, at about 400 Watts..., blacking the bottom of the Aluminium Percolator (over a Kerosene Lamp running super-rich to produce Sooty Smoke...) doubled it's efficiency.... Recently I returned from the Dump with a 1.2 Square Metre Dish, and while in the early stages of deciding how to cook with it I stumbled on some videos about Wood-Gasifiers....; and because they use Heat to make Charcoal + Volatile Gas + Tar & Steam out of Woodscraps, I decided to try using Concentrated Sunlight to supply the Heat - hoping to make Wood-Gas plus Charcoal without emitting any C.O. - 2... I'm using a 500ml Milo-Tin as a Gasifier Cannister on the little Mirror, as a proof of concept Experiment, to see what it does...; the first two Batch-Runs reduced the weight of the wood by almost 12%, and turned maybe 5% of the Charge into Charcoal... The Video of my first Test-Run went up on my Scroll two dayze ago, if you feel like having a chuckle..... I don't think the 1.2 Square Metre Mirror will be big enough to cook much more than a Litre of Wood per Batch (double the Cannister-Volume for three times the Reflector-Area, to get more Heat while processing more Wood)...; but if that works then I think I'm going to go hunting for a 5 or 10 Square Metre Dish, to have a go at a Gallon or two at a time... Feel free to have a go at making "Sun-Gas" faster than I can get there...; you have more Mirrors to hand than I do..., it's all in a good cause.... Have a good one, ;-p Ciao !

[@popeantichrist8847]

Beautiful

[@letsgomicroliving_1993_]

Looks like Denise put on a few pounds in the right places. Dan is a lucky man

[@91099Babar]

Very Creative 😨

[@garyday6681]

Cool, thanks for great video!

[@mrfixit011]

Cool thank's.

[@DamianReloaded]

Awesome. I'm not very much into bittersweet food, but this recipe is really inviting as the sweet is in the salad. Well done! EDIT: Lol what was happening inside Dan Rojas? He was like going through some serious Extasis XD

[@TiberiusBrastaviceanu]

Lol You guys are funny. Stuff flying on your mirror as you're cooking. I guess you'll have some heavy dishwashing to do at the end of your meal. In any case, I enjoy your videos.

[@DancingSpiderman]

What's cookin, good lookin? 4:30 haha, the sound of that skueezing the lime and orange, sounded funny to me ... fffshhthpth, or however it's spelled 6:40 it's spelled Walla I like how Dan smacks his lipps! Makes the salmon sound all the more delicious!

[@rogermichael1762]

Good luck with Irma, keep us posted.

[@scottlund4562]

Great to see you all again! That mirror looks spot on fantastic. Could you tell me how often during a cooking process one would have to adjust the focus? Go GPS!

[@BETTERTOMARROW]

I like what you are doing with the cooking ideas.. I would like to see you heat up a thick chunk od steel ,then see if you get enough stored heat to cook with .. Stay creative....

[@lokivanni2500]

Mrs. Rojas needs to make her own channel dedicated to solar cooking. I’d subscribe :)

[@Gradechecker1]

You know, that is a terrific idea!!!

[@rsummers1974ify]

Hey Dan take a normal round charcoal grill and turn into a parabolic mirror grill. For a new video. I just thought of the idea watching your video.

[@steboulrase]

What happens if some food fall in your mirror while you cook? Is it stopping

[@chorton53]

Salted butter and seasalt on salmon. Isn't salmon already salted?

[@locouk]

I keep meaning to try making a spicy tomato salsa as a Doritos dip, I can't find a recipe that I think is right for it though. I love dinger chillis so I'd have finely shredded a couple to add to the citrus salsa lol.. Stay safe and dry this coming season, all the best from the UK.

[@MrPs103]

Goddamn, the cook has a serious money maker

[@weatherstorms]

Love this diy solar stove. :)

[@Donfrompakistan]

Wow.....

[@fred306801]

That was really cool ! Not sure where you are getting the oranges limes and lemon's. No matter where or what time of the year I get them they are never as juicy as the ones you guys have. When Dan come out with the towel and cap on, On this small screen my first thought was who is the Arab. lol. You guys make some great videos. I don't care for fish but that did look good.

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Summer sun and humidity are impossible in Florida. Towel acts as a cover to view the viewfinder and also blot sweat:-)

[@mrmusketier453]

How long does it take the heat up the pan

[@mendebil]

i love your accent

[@supernenechi]

NOW I'M HUNGRY

[@4stringz.]

❤❤❤

[@hdersoz]

You gotta be using a glass panel underneat the grill to keep the mirror clean.

[@RWSBrowning]

I didn't know you could catch salmon in Florida.

[@andys623]

Can you make solar smoked Brisket?

[@travionbell9991]

Lol dan ate the food and bounced this was cool. I was lookin up how to condense liquids

[@MrTallocks]

Why is the heat not hot enough to burn the pot? In one of your previous videos it burned metal.

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Because there is food and moisture present. A pan alone can get damaged but with water it boils prevents hi temperatures. Food will burn before the pan also so the food removes heat.

[@dufusrunescape]

cook food you hunt on a camp trip with stuff you can carry several miles into the woods.

[@leonardo1480]

don't the spitting fat/butter damage the parabolic mirror over time?

[@Stephen_Strange]

Hi, What is that suspending the rack above the mirror? How do we know how far from the mirror to place our racks?

[@nicktohzyu]

how do your eyes not get rekt looking toward that pan

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

The concentrated light is on the bottom of the pan.

[@mikedunn7795]

How do you keep the sun on the pan while cooking if the mirror is just sitting flat below the grill?

[@GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Hi Mike, We manually adjust the mirror as the Earth rotates and the sun position changes. On average every 10-20 minutes. We do have sun trackers that are set and forget but a bit overkill for solar cooking: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGHJl2CrrbysppI

[@tweebthelerker3952]

She is very hot. This is a very cool way to cook. Not sure where I will find one of these mirrors. But, I will be looking for one now. Thanks.

Merci pour le bon commentaire Nicolas!

Dan, Bucs Dolphins next Sunday,

[@carlaprio]

Her .." So I had a 1lb Salmon so y cut it in two pieces to get two pieces to have two 1/2 lb Salmon pieces."... Me.. DON'T YOU F*CKING SAY?!?

[@jimic1972]

Hi, nice to see another video, has been a while since last one that I see. tell me about the Stirling, had you make another and bigger? also, do you speak Spanish? saludos

[@superdave54811]

Personally, I like my salmon to be crispy, so no juice until after it has cooked on both sides until done, then I add the lemon/lime after plating. Neither will penetrate the salmon while cooking but stick to the outside a bit. I love crispy salmon. I also skip the cilantro or use so little it is just a minor part of the flavor. Otherwise, it takes over and everything taste like soap.

[@ianmathieson65]

Dave: Cilantro is the Spanish word for coriander, also deriving from coriandrum. It is the common term in North American English for coriander leaves due to their extensive use in Mexican cuisine but here in the U.K. we call it coriander. To some people it tastes like soap because the molecular make-up of their taste buds is different from the norm. Those people also generally dislike aniseed and fennel. I recall having a curry in an Indian restaurant which tasted strongly of soap because of the extensive use of coriander. Yuk!

[@superdave54811]

Hi, Ian. It seemed to have also made it's way to China and their street food. I have used it my Mexican foods, but only a small taste of it. Too strong. As I have cooked many different ethnic foods, I have seen changes over the years, including the introduction of cilantro. I have always used the coriander seeds (powder) in my chili. Been cooking for 35 years and quite accomplished. I do like anise and fennel, but, so do fish, so I use an infused oil on my plastics.
