Ephemeral Isle: Another Nail

"The classic Aga cooker is in danger as the manufacturer cuts jobs due to declining sales.... Originally created by a Swedish inventor as an aid to the blind, it's a cooker without any controls. Instead, the burners and two ovens are always hot with the burners covered by huge insulating lids and the sides of the cooker equally padded so that only a trickle of heat is needed to keep it going.To bake something, just pop it in the oven. To fry something, just lift the lid and plop the pan down. Breathlessly simple."
