2.0 out of 5 stars A bit foreign for US cooks, January 3, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Classic 1000 Microwave Recipes (Paperback)

I was looking for a general guide to some easy, quick microwave recipes. What I got was a book that is a bit more European than I can use. The recipes are not geared toward an American palate. Some would see this as an advantage, but I didn't find it "the only" microwave book I'd ever need. It calls for obscure(to me anyway)ingredients, many I don't recognise. I think of myself as a somewhat adventurous cook but most of these recipes do not appeal to me at all. A waste of my money.

This is the A to Z of microwave cooking. Form starters & soups to Sauces, pickles, desserts and ofcourse main dishes. The recipes are well explained and easy to read. It also has a good collection of microwave tips. If I had known about that earlier, I would not have bought another book on microwave cooking tips :-( Pick this up..Its a steal !

Well the book does teach you how to cook everything in the microwave but the reason I wanted to cook in the microwave is to make fast and very simple meals...I wanted easy recipes not recipes with lots of crazy ingredients. If you want to cook gourmet meals with fresh herbs in the microwave then this book is for you but if you want something simple then pick another book.
