I have been enjoying the slow cook foods my woodstove provides. Some older kale from the winter garde – just stew it in a cast iron pan for a few hours. Pinto beans, I give them a head start by getting them hot on the gas stove then let them slowly finish on the heat stove . Bought this specific airtight stove about ten years ago because it had a wire flat top to use.

All one needs to duplicate Alice Waters cooking is a fireplace with a good bed of hot embers. Just be careful not to catch the oil on fire. Also, if you have a soapstone wood stove, watch out for oil spills on to the very porous stone.
