How does it work “The New Way of Cooking”?
The New Cooking Bag (NCB) is used to cook food without a continuous need for heat. The food is brought to a boil in a pan with water over a fire. Once it is boiled, the fire can be extinguished and the pan with its contents is put directly into the NCB. The NCB is tied shut. Because of the insulating properties of the NCB the temperature in the pan remains high and the food continues to cook until it is ready. Since there is some heat loss the cooking time is longer than when using permanent heat. A lot of the traditional dished prepared in Ghana are suited for the use of an NCB.
The advantages of cooking with the New Cooking Bag
With the many advantages of cooking with the New Cooking Bag, we hope to convince the woman of Tamale and surroundings, to convert to this new way of cooking.
The New Way of Cooking saves the women a lot of time.
Not the cooking process itself, that will actually take a little bit longer – it isn’t called Slow Cooking for nothing – but you don’t have to stick around! It doesn’t require you to keep your eye on it! You make the preparations, start the cooking process and the New Cooking Bag will take over from you so to speak. This way, you can use your precious time to do other things…
Women in and around Tamale have many tasks and responsibilities, there is so much work to be done! The collecting of firewood alone, especially in the surrounding villages, takes up a tremendous amount of time and energy. With this style of cooking there is less need for firewood and also here they will realize there is a lot of extra time to do more useful things!
