Cooking in a SUN OVEN is easy, fun, natural, and nutritious, while helping the environment. SUN OVENS are ideal for everyday use in your back yard, at picnics, while camping, or in the event of a power failure. They can help keep your house cool in the summer by keeping the heat from cooking outside.
Even though it is called an oven, food can be baked, boiled, and steamed at cooking temperatures of 360 F to 400 F. There is no movement of air in a SUN OVEN, allowing food to stay moist and tender and flavorful. Sun-baked roasts are tastier and more succulent, and sun-baked bread has unparalleled taste and texture. The aroma of food sunning itself in a SUN OVEN is sure to please your senses.
Temperatures in a SUN OVEN rise slowly and evenly, allowing complex carbohydrates time to break down into simple sugars, emanating subtle natural flavors. The even temperature of the SUN OVEN prevents burning, so you do not need to stir your food while it is cooking.
There are two ways to cook in a SUN OVEN. If you re-focus the oven to follow the sun every 25 to 30 minutes, cooking times and methods will be very similar to cooking with a conventional stove or oven. Or a SUN OVEN can be used for slow cooking, much like a crock-pot. You can prepare your dinner, put it in the SUN OVEN, point the oven where the sun will be approximately halfway through the time you will be gone. Leave, and come home to a tasty, slow-cooked dinner. If you run late, there is no need to worry; the SUN OVEN will keep your food warm, moist, and fresh for hours.
Why Cook in a SUN OVEN? It's all about the Food!
The F's of SUN OVEN Cooking
Cooking in a Food Friendly SUN OVEN is Fresh, Flavorful, and Fundamentally Nutritious.
It's Fun
It seems almost mysterious to put raw food into a black box and remove a moist, tender, sun cooked dinner. You can enjoy a leisurely day knowing the sun is hard at work gently cooking your dinner.
It's Forgiving
SUN OVEN cooking is the most forgiving method of cooking you will ever experience. Sun cooked food does not burn or scorch, and is very difficult to overcook. A SUN OVEN transforms unskilled cooks into outdoor gourmets.
It's Financially Favorable
After the initial purchase, there is no more money to spend. You do not need to use electricity, or buy charcoal or gas. You can cook outdoors throughout the summer and keep you house cooler, reducing air conditioning costs.
It's Friendly to the environment
The sun energizes food without hurting the environment. The air is not contaminated with smoke or greenhouse gases, and no fossil fuels or electricity are required.
It's Flameproof
A SUN OVEN can be used in parks that ban open flame cooking. There is never any danger of fire or of burning food or forests.
It's Fossil Fuel Free
The sun comes up every morning, and harnessing the sun for cooking does not deplete the earth of its resources.
It's a Family Favorite
Using a SUN OVEN can be one of the most satisfying events you can plan with your kids. You can turn off the TV and computer, let the machine pick up the phone, and go outside and make a sun snack. In addition to healthy food, the family can learn about the power of the sun, nature and the environment through a fun tasty object lesson.
It's Flexible
You have the option of choosing how long it will take to cook by choosing how often you re-focus the oven toward the sun. SUN OVENS are portable and easy to carry, enabling you to use them in your yard, at the park, on the beach or while camping or boating.
It Frees up time
You spend less time preparing, tending and cleaning up sun cooked meals. You can place a frozen meal in your SUN OVEN in the morning, set the oven where the sun will be mid-day, and come home from work to a meal that has thawed and cooked while you were at work. Cleaning up is easy because the even temperature of your SUN OVEN prevents the food from burning or scorching your pots or pans.
It Foils the Forces of nature
A SUN OVEN enables self-sufficiency in the face of the increasing number of weather and natural disasters which lead to power failures. You can purify water or cook your dinner in the event of a blackout.
