Honestly I would use this book. I'm not even single. But a lot of the microwaves bad reputation is from misuse. People just blast them on high and expect perfect food.

Yup. At the very least double the time and halve the power. You just have to learn your microwave.

For example, I can nuke sausages and have them come out looking like I grilled them if I do 15 minutes on 20% power.

Longer time and less power is the secret!

Another thing I've started doing is nuking my cup before pouring coffee or tea in it and nuking our dinner plates before putting food on them.

Interesting. Do you put the dishes in clean/dry?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Yeah, you're just pre-heating them. Just make sure they're microwave safe

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Yes and yes. It's so food/liquid doesn't get cold fast like it would if the cup or dish wasn't warmed up.
