Book Reviews of Cooking with Sunshine: The Complete Guide to Solar Cuisine with 150 Easy Sun-Cooked Recipes

Book Review: Living green in Seattle
Summary: 5 Stars

I've lived in Seattle for 30 years and with heavy seasonal rain and a yard that boasts three hours of sun in the middle of summer, I had never considered cooking with sunshine a possibility-- not until I read Cooking with Sunshine. I might have to move the oven around my yard to follow the sun, but I'm ready to give it a try. If you don't know much about solar cooking, this book is the best place to start. Flip through the recipes first and consider pumpkin bread, fruit pies and brownies, all these and more you can make with energy from the sun. But before you rush out and order order a solar oven, finish this book first because details like what is solar cooking, the history of solar cooking, what you can cook and what kinds of pans to use are essential information. And the last sections provide instructions for making your own solar oven. I'm so excited about this book, I'm ordering it for my sister in Texas.
