The wonder of cooking in a bag - The Boston Globe

Product Description

When Sarah Collins, a South African entrepreneur with a passion for the environment and for empowering women, came up with the idea for an electricity-free portable slow cooker, a friend sewed the first prototype for what became the Wonderbag. Last year, Fortune magazine named Collins one of the most powerful women entrepreneurs, handing out free Wonderbags in Africa and establishing factories in poor South African communities. When I first heard about the Wonderbag I thought of my mother on Sundays in soccer season in Denmark. She would peel potatoes, bring the lidded pot to a boil, cook it for two minutes, then wrap it in several layers of newspaper before burying it at the foot of her bed under her heavy goose-feather duvet..
