Solar Cooking for Home & Camp: How to Make and Use a Solar Cooker

A great book on the subject. A Recommend read for those looking to cook your food with the heat of the sun. Has some great solar cooker/oven build designs. And the recipes sure do help get the best from the cookers.

This book is EXACTLY what I wanted it to be: a complete guide to the different types of solar ovens and how to build them, then the majority of the book is a wide-ranging set of recipes to use in your solar cooker. Our Scout Troop is already talking about teaching the Scouts about solar cooking by using one of the recipes on a camp-out in the Spring.

Excellent book with good guide to make a simple solar oven. No need to spend hundreds of dollars when you can make your own for $10 and be cooking the same day. We have made bread in january, cookies, soups, stews, bacon, rolls, and so much more. Use it with a dutch oven for great results. The bread is better than conventional oven.

Being new to solar cooking, this book is a real help. The plans for the homemade ovens are clear and would be a fun home or class project. The book also has some good recipes.

I can't wait for more sunny weather to try out several of the recipes. These recipes are doable, that means you don't have to buy special ingredients. Use what you already have to cook with. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to solar cook.
