There are all kinds of recipes for making homemade bread. While thinking of survival preparedness skills, and simplicity when it comes to bread making, you can’t get much simpler than this bread recipe while using free energy from the sun with a solar oven.
All you need is flour, salt, sugar, yeast, and water.
You can use white flour, wheat flour, you can mill your own flour, whatever works for you. In this example we are using plain old all purpose white flour – knowing that this is the most likely scenario for most people. Having said that, do consider getting into milling your own flour – it’s really simple and is much, much healthier.
OK, here is the very easy bread recipe.
1 cup water (better if it’s warm)
1 teaspoon yeast (we use Saf
)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar (more if you like it sweeter)
In the event of a power outage, be it a short or long term event, you will either be limited to eating foods that don’t require cooking, or you will need another source of cooking.
We have been cooking with solar ovens on occasion, for a number of years. You can’t beat a solar oven when you factor in that you don’t need any fuel! Sure, it won’t be very efficient during the winter months or periods of bad weather, but during sunny or mostly sunny days it will provide free cooking.
If you store enough flour (or wheat), and if you have a solar oven, you will be capable of making a staple food of life, BREAD!
