Apparently this bag lowers the amount of fuel needed to cook drastically for slow cooked items like stews and soups.
anybody ever used anything like this? http://www.amazon.com/Wonderbag/pages/7599575011/ref=azss_398553662_2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-5&pf_rd_r=1V35QW8AARPWZJGFF0BN&pf_rd_t=1401&pf_rd_p=1933370222&pf_rd_i=1002990081 the videos make this look like a winner. you can bring pots to a boil on a rocket stove, and place in this. |
| Never seen this product before but have heard of similar techniques for making stews. In episode of I think "Wartime Kitchen and Garden" they made a stew by bringing it to a roaring boil then placing it in a wooden box stuffed full of hay then wrapping it in an old quilt. |

did a little Googling to try and find the episode, turns out it was in Wartime Farm (Episode 2). You can find it on youtube at 26:50 then opened at 36:00 Video Link
I also found some more info on "Haybox" cooking on Wikipedia it also has a link to a wiki article for the Wonderbag at the bottom of the article. WIKI link |
