“Slow Cooking Bag” is the second initiative of the Adwuma Ye foundation, and
was founded together with Tuma Viela in 2014.
The Slow Cooking Bag symbolizes a new way of cooking. Ellen and her team
devised a plan to introduce the slow cooking method in Ghana.
The modernization of the haybox, with an African flavour. They developed a
version of it which is completely made up of local resources and very
functional, They call it the Slow Cooking bag. For the filling they use local silk
cotton, the biggest advantage being that silk cotton is 100% natural and has
huge isolating capacity. We buy from the local silk cotton farmers which
benefits them too.<\/p>\n

Women in Ghana have to invest a lot of time and money in the preparation of meals and it prevents them from further personal development. On top of that, the traditional way of cooking is a health hazard, not to mention the impact it has on the environment. World Wide, more than 2 billion people cook traditionally with wood or coal. Not only is it unhealthy, it is also one of the causes of heavy deforestation and climate change.<\/p>\n

The Slow Cooking Bag (SCB) 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 SCB. Don’t forget to put a towel in the SCB first so that it doesn’t get
damaged. The SCB is tied shut. Because of the insulating properties of the SCB
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 SCB. Would you like to try the Slow Cooking Bag
yourself? You can! It is available for purchase in the Netherlands, in a variety of
gorgeous African fabrics. Below, find several recipes and tips on how you can
use the SCB. Purchasing a Slow Cooking Bag not only provides you a new way
of cooking, it also supports our project. Do you have a dish that you prepared
with the SCB? We would love for you to share it with us! You can send us the
recipe and some pictures.<\/p>\n
