Spring is Here – time to get the solar oven dusted off! Kale Chips!

I am hankering for some sun cooking on Easter Sunday.  Kale Chips!

I have a lot of wintered-over kale in my garden still looking & tasting good.  Some of it has delicate and bee-lovin’ flowers on the tops, so I use those in a simple salad to add color & taste.  The leaves I will use for kale chips.  First I select, tear off, check for bugs (you can wash them off – in fact – you can buy them at the store) tear up slightly, and prepare – lightly toss it all with olive oil and “dry/bake” it for about 40 minutes in my Tulsi  in the midday hot sun.  I leave the oven door ever so slightly propped open with a hand mitt or spoon handle so that it doesn’t cook too much, or at a high temperature.  I rather ‘dry it’ so that is a crunchy treat that is still almost raw!  I toss it gently with a sprinkle of sea salt and Nutritional Yeast. You can eat it all afternoon with good feelings for this low calorie, nutrient dense nutritious treat filled with deep leafy green goodness, high in minerals & vitamins!

Hey – it’s hard to believe it is so good for me because it tastes like “chips”!  What a great and satisfying snack, you need to try some soon….Call me if you want to buy an oven while the sun is getting higher overhead…get a start on the season.

How It Works!

Use the Tulsi-Hybrid Solar Oven to make an ENTIRE Dinner.

The Sun BD solar electric ovens are easy to use, portable, set up in seconds and are safer to use because there are no dangerous open flames. Our Solar Electric ovens can be operated in any one of three ways:

It’s the best of all worlds. You can solar cook more often and never have to worry about clouds again. We call using both solar and electric in combination – peace of mind. When the sun is out the oven acts as a solar oven but when the sun disappears the oven acts as an electric oven cycling itself on and off between electric and solar when the sun reappears. Forget the roller coaster cooking temperatures and the threat of bacterial food poisoning that can happen with solar only ovens. Our solar electric ovens are thermostat controlled and maintain the cooking temperature inside the oven chamber so your food is always safe and cooked to perfection even when the weather isn’t.

 

Household ovens heat up fast… they cycle on and off to maintain temperature.
Solar ovens heat up in proportion to solar UV input.
UV solar input blocked by clouds?  No problem!   Solar cooking made practical now and forever!!!

Try a hybrid Solar Electric Oven for Year-Round Results


Cos Law – © Dr. A. Marsh, Square One, www.ecotect.com

The Earth’s orbit around the Sun is not circular but elliptical, meaning that it is closest to the Sun in late December – early January and farthest away in late June – early July. However, this has only a slight effect on the intensity of solar radiation. Of more importance is the axial tilt of the Earth at 23.45°. This means that the path of the Sun through the sky changes significantly throughout the year.

This has an effect because the lower the Sun is in the sky, the more of the Earth’s atmosphere the solar radiation has to pass through in order to reach the surface, thus the more scattering and absorption it is subjected to. When the Sun has a lower elevation angle, the solar energy is less intense because it is spread out over a larger area reducing its intensity and its heating capacity as per the Cos Law.

Simply translated do not expect any solar ONLY cooking device to obtain summer maximum cooking temperature during winter, spring and fall seasonal phases. However, seasonal variation in solar heating capacity is not a problem for our versatile solar electric cooking ovens with built-in thermostatically controlled energy efficient low wattage electrical back–up. Now that you know about Cos’s Law would you ever want to solar cook without back up?

Despite solar cooking’s great potential benefits, it has been held back from achieving universal acceptance due to its one fatal flaw: No sun, No fun, Cold Food! The fact is that solar cooking is a weather dependent activity and that weather conditions constantly change. Successful solar cooking has always depended on clear skies and intense sunlight. But no longer!
