A real life-saver when it comes to load shedding, and just as useful for camping! These non-electric thermal cooker bags keep a pot hot (or cold) for up to 8 hours. It functions like a slow cooker, except that you have to bring the pot to a boil on a stove or fire first and simmer there for 5 minutes. Once the food is simmering, transfer the pot to the cooker bag to continue cooking – thus saving the energy that would otherwise be needed to cook the food to completion.
Cook rice in 20-30 minutes, cook mielie pap in 30-40 minutes, cook chicken stew in 3-4 hours, cook beef stew in 6-8 hours – ideal to put on before work, or before you go to sleep.
As a bonus, you use less water, meaning the food is crisper, tastier and less soggy than with conventional cooking. As with stews, the long cooking time helps flavours to develop and blend. Also, because the food cooks below 100 degrees, it helps to preserve heat-sensitive nutrients like vitamins C and B… meaning your food is more delicious and healthier all at the same time.
It is made from upcycled corporate waste, with the outer lining consisting of 100% cotton, and broken polystyrene pieces for insulation. It is a two-piece set, designed such that you can shape it to suit a wide variety of pot shapes – whether tall and skinny, or fat and short, these bags fit them all! It can accommodate pots from 3 litres to 10 litres comfortably. One size truly fits most!
Please note the colour will probably be black or navy, depending on what fabric we have available.
