Ooops

Re: Microwave ovens

I was gifted one as a 'house warming' present when I moved in here - but I didn't like anything that came out of it. It was used for storage for a while - then I put it out for the rag and bone man.

Re: Microwave ovens

I use mine daily for a whole host of things.

Re: Microwave ovens

I use mine for lots of things all the usual like heating home made bread rolls straight from the freezer, making my morning porridge, a quick white sauce , melting chocolate , a few moments for jacket potatoes to reduce the time in the oven.
Plus a couple of less usual things like fatless potato crisps and a sponge pudding that cooks in a couple of minutes.

Re: Microwave ovens

We use ours less and less as time goes by. These days we only really use it to heat up leftovers or unfinished coffees. (not tea) Even with leftovers they are not that much good. A curry or stir fry is OK but that's about it. They either make things soggy and soft or rock hard. I am fussy about my cooking and I like natural heat - preferably gas.

Re: Microwave ovens

There's a Pakistani takeaway near us, we have a special arrangement with them, for £5 we get a box of briyani spicy rice, no chicken because the bits are mostly bone and we don't want waste filling the box, plus a large dollop of the hottest curry sauce on top. We take it home, microwave for dinner, we have kefir in the fridge, always goes well.

Re: Microwave ovens

I put instant coffee in mine...so I can travel through time.....

Re: Microwave ovens

You too!..man isn't that the bomb!?..You should try it with a dash of cinnamon and...umm..never mind.

Re: Microwave ovens

Am I missing something here with the microwave coffee? Does it become more potent?

Re: Microwave ovens

No never mind Pixie Knuckles. I'm just getting in touch with my inner moron again.
