Haybox or fireless cooker for nomads

The Norwegian pot is a steaming device that has been around for thousands of years. The principle is to place a pot in an insulated container after boiling for slow cooking without a heat source. In addition to saving energy, the other advantage is that the nutrients are preserved.
There are different models, but in this video we present the one with a cover, which is more suitable for van life. Although the term "Norwegian pot" or MN is relatively recent, the principle of the "hay box" was used in the Hebrew tradition on Shabbat (Mireille Saimpaul, "Histoire de cuire sans feu ou presque").
MN is just one of many names for this concept: pressure cooker, fireless cooker, cooking thermos, cooking box, magic box, wonderbox... According to Mireille Saimpaul, the origin of the name "Norwegian pot" comes from the fact that "Norwegian automatic cookers" were exhibited at the 1867 Universal Exhibition in Paris and caused a sensation.
We warmly thank the MJC of Berlioz in Pau (@la64dunom) who allowed us to attend Françoise and Françoise's workshop free of charge to make this magnificent Norwegian pot. And a heartfelt thank you to the Francoise women for their great contribution to the making of this pot. If you would like to find out about all the activities offered by the MJC Berlioz: www.mjcberlioz.org/.
Of course, we recommend that you encourage the recycling of materials. You can find woollen blankets and cotton fabrics in recycling centres. The whole thing cost us less than 5€ for about 2h30 of making.

Superbe découverte, merci. Je vais y réfléchir pour mes longues rando bivouac ( problème du poids...).

Pour les randos, vous pouvez utiliser votre duvet ou gros anorak qui peut faire office de marmite norvégienne. Il faut s'assurer qu'il soit le plus ajusté possible autour de la marmite pour qu'il y ait le moins de déperdition d'air possible.
