Integrated cooking (Wikia: Solarcooking: Integrated cooking method) combines the use of:

1. An appropriate solar cooker model whenever the sun is shining;
2. A retained heat cooker (hay basket or fireless cooker) to extend cooking time and keep food hot for 3-4 hours after cooking; and
3. An improved cookstove (i.e. efficient cook stove) for use when there is not sufficient sunshine.
