Microwave Cooking

icrfor microwave cooking has been with us since World War II and ovens have been available for a good twenty years, but it is only recently that microwave cooking—not just defrosting or the reheating of coffee—has begun to come into its own. Why bother with a microwave oven? All of us are busy, but at the same time we have become more sophisticated in our food tastes in terms of both nutrition and flavor. The microwave oven is uniquely suited to our new lifestyles and tastes. Soon it will be a standard piece of equipment and we will have our own repertoire of microwave recipes.
