Microwave comes in very handy in heating up cooked food or leftovers, because it is fast, clean and the food won't stick to the food container (saves you a lot of time in cleaning and washing).I would like to share with you the amount of time that we need to heat up different types of food. It is faster and time saving if you put the food in a container and cover it (not air tight container, it

I would like to share with you an article about steak marinades. I would like to try it and share with you soon. Enjoy!Cuisines from all over the world rely on a diversity of steak marinades to prepare meat for cooking. Wine, vinegar, lime juice or other acid ingredients are used to tenderize the texture of red meats: pork, veal, beef, lamb and venison. However, tenderizing is not the only great

Microwave ovens help in cooking food with remarkable speed. The convection facility in an oven provides a 'airflow' circulation that heats up the food in less time using much less electricity. Cooking in this appliance is a lot faster than conventional methods of cooking as it operates at much lower temperatures. With microwave cooking, nutrient values are preserved and the actual taste of the

Living in a studio apartment doesn't give you much space to cook. So, finally got enough money to buy a microwave oven (yipee!) the other day.Well, have so much in mind to cook.... but don't know how???So far, just use it to heat ready meals and YES, I did scramble eggs (a big improvement!). Bla bla bla....I know there are much more that I can do with microwave, but I am still very 'green' in
