You asked for it! Definitive
Microwave Cookery II
In a wonderful sequel to "Definitive Microwave Cookery I" (now in 6th
printing) "Definitive Microwave Cookery II"-- Everything you Need to
KNow About Microwave Cooking, represents the second in a series of cookbooks
aimed at making the microwave every cook's best friend. Includes
hundreds of taste tempting microwave recipes, microwave cooking
information, and general information that will teach you everything you need
to know to cook meals in microwave minutes as wonderful as those prepared
for hours by "grandma". The recipes are tried and proven for
everything from soups to desserts. Chicken with Lobster, Sinatra Pasta
Salad, and Williamsburg trifle are just a few of the delicious dishes that
can be prepared quickly.
Carolyn Dodson has the distinction
of being on of the first people in the country to demonstrate how to cook in
the microwave oven. The year was 1957, when her home economics class
at Wichita University was chosen to demonstrate Raytheon's first in-home
microwave as it toured the United States. She has consulted for the
Tupperware Company as has been making other appearances on national and
syndicated celebrity talk shows, appearing with Regis and Kathie Lee.
She has demonstrated in more than 300 microwave cooking segments on local
and national cable television. Carolyn also has been featured on
numberous radio shows and provides print copy for newspapers and magazines.
She has lectured in France, Germany, Switzerland, England, Japan, Australia,
HongKong, Canada, and Korea, as well as most of the 50 states.
There are also hundreds of helpful, time-saving tips and ideas-- even
recipes for making massage lotion, lip gloss and even doggie cookies in the
microwave.
