People who never been to any part of the Middle East couldn't help but wonder if you could really cook something by using the scorching heat of the sun.
An Instagram video of a man cooking a sunny side up under the extreme heat of the sun (about 50 degrees Celsius) in Dubai has amazed the netizens. In the video, the man set a pan under the sun for 10 minutes before he started putting oil on it. After a few moments while the oil is already scorching, he put an egg on it, drizzled it with spices and Voila! sunny side up is ready. The man finished it up by saying : "This is how we do it in Dubai."
The truth on whether the extreme heat of the Middle East sun could really cook an egg was challenged by an OFW from Kuwait. Doctor Chie Umandap, a dentist and an OFW advocate based in Kuwait, while his followers are watching, made a live video of his experiment. He wants to find out if the extreme heat of the sun at around 54 degrees Celsius could cook a raw egg. He also did it to show how hot really is in Kuwait. Just imagine how the heat sun could actually do to your exposed skin. He broke a fresh egg over the asphalt. It took the egg longer to be fully cooked than the video above.
Another video of him placing an egg on a smooth surface under the sunlight. Noticeably, the egg yolk was cooked faster than its white. So, by watching these videos, you can witness how hot our OFWs in the middle endure during summer. But the climate is really changing and while I was in Kuwait, where seldom rainfall occurs years ago, the rain is just an ordinary scene always before every end of the summer before the winter season starts. And the start of summer is often welcomed by rain followed by a sandstorm.
During summer in the Middle East, the temperature ranges from 38 degrees Celsius to scorching 55 degrees and the feel increases depending on humidity. If you left your car in an open parking for hours without the air conditioning on, you are most likely to feel oven-like experience when you get in.
