What if there was a year-round method of cooking that was low cost, powered by sunlight, non-polluting, and easy to do even in college dorms, apartment balconies and off-the-grid locations? There is: Solar Cooking. Solar cooking is easy everywhere in the U.S., and as far north as Canada, and as far south as Australia. In a solar cooker you can do everything from simmering to poaching, steaming, saut?ing, braising, baking, roasting, toasting, pan frying, grilling, canning, medical sterilization, and even making ice (at night!). The Sunny Side of Cooking includes:
