IDCOOK's Solar Cooking Products Shine Light on U.S. Market

May 12, 2011 - PRLog -- Following a successful introduction to the North American market during March's International Home and Housewares Show, IDCOOK has opened a sales office in Chicago to serve its U.S. customers. With solar ovens, solar barbecues, and even solar lighters, IDCOOK provides a comprehensive range of products for everyone, useable anywhere. As the current European leader in solar cooking, IDCOOK is intent in pursuing its international growth. The company currently sells its products through a variety of distribution networks like the outdoor retailers, hardware stores and garden centers.

The COOKUP200 and the COOKUP INOX, the company's two solar grills, can be taken anywhere outdoors, such as in a backyard, campsite or at the beach. In several minutes, the solar grill is set up and ready to use. Cooking is safe since the only energy source is the sun rays.

With the SUNCOOK+ and the SOLAR COOKING KIT, food cooks just like in a traditional oven, but using the sun’s rays as the only energy source. The gentle cooking from this solar oven allows the true flavors of food to shine through while retaining nutrients.

Both the solar oven and the solar grill require a separate grill-safe dish such as a casserole dish, pan or griddle for cooking. Cast iron is recommended for optimum results, and a user’s own dishes are perfectly acceptable. IDCOOK also has a line of cooking accessories available. Cooking time for both the SUNCOOK+ and the COOKUP200 are similar to that of traditional propane or charcoal grills: about 15 minutes for sausage or bratwurst, between 15 and 25 minutes for fish, chicken, or meat depending on the size, and about 40 minutes for large stews such as ratatouille.

The solar lighter is a top item for 2011, thanks to this ecological gadget that allows you to ignite small items such as fuses, tinder or cigarettes in a few seconds. This lighter can carry a logo or brand name as well making it a promotional gift for holidays and special occasions.
