A bit foreign for US cooks Jan 03, 2001 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.

You don't need another microwave cooking book Mar 31, 2000
By YAZDI F BAGLI 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 !

Fancy recipes Sep 19, 2007
By Cheryl Cleveland

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.

Not for modern microwaves Feb 17, 2009
By S. Kessler This book was a great disappointment. First of all, it is written by a British author and calls for many ingredients and has many recipes that are not well suited for the American kitchen. But most important, it is written using 750 watt ovens as the standard. This is such an old standard. I installed a microwave in October and it is 1200 watts. What a difference that makes. I thought the book was recently published, but it turned out that it was really older than I thought, as the paperback edition publishing date Amazon provides is misleading.
What I don't understand is why there are no recent cookbooks for the microwave. Every book I've perused seems to be more than 10 years old. You'd think someone would write an up-to-date book as a comprehensive guide to the many things you can cook in a microwave (believe me, I've experimented since I got mine). But that doesn't seem to be the case.
