He is about to end up run over, his mother saves himCook slowly using only a source of energy and heat for a few minutes is possible thanks to the Wonderbag, “a recipe for change” invented by Sarah Collins. It is a bag-shaped stove, not electric but capable of maintaining the heat and therefore allowing the food that was previously brought to a boil to continue cooking despite the heat source being removed.
As stated on the official website, the Wonderbag has been designed for use in those places where electricity and gas are a luxury. In fact, imagine how much importance and usefulness a simple object like this can have in developing countries where traditional energy sources are too expensive for many families.
It is a slow cooking method but fully functional since the bag is capable of thermally insulate the pot which is inserted inside, thus maintaining the degree of cooking for hours. You do not need to do anything special simply start cooking the food in a pot on the stove for about 5 minutes, then turn it off, take the container and place it tightly closed inside the Wonderbag for the necessary time, which varies from dish to dish.
Using this tool you avoid wasting resources which can be not only gas and electricity but, especially in developing countries, also wood.
summing up the benefits of this slow cooker there are many: savings in energy sources, reduction of CO2 emissions, less deforestation, less toxic fumes and water savings (this is because the thermal insulation causes less water to evaporate and therefore less is needed for cooking!).
A good idea, don't you think?
