How To Microwave: The Good Cook's Guide To Best Microwave Practice [Paperback]

Carolyn Humphries (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 30, 2009

The microwave can do some amazing things for a good cook. It can cut lots of corners and preparation time and offers some solutions that are almost miraculous. For example, you can double the juice you squeeze from an orange if you just give it a blast in the microwave, and 35 seconds on a bottle of red wine transforms the way it will drink for you. The microwave has now been recognised by good cooks as having some purpose in their cookery. But like most machines, if you don't learn its secrets, you don't get the most out of it. This information-packed book will open new horizons to anyone who reads it.
