What is microwave: Definition and 200 Discussions

Is there a recipe for a lasagna in the dcb in the microwave? I think I remember seeing one...

If a DCB recipe calls for microwave cooking time and you are at a location with a microwave that is too small, is there a conversion rate for cooking time? Say if it calls for 10 minutes in the microwave, how long would you cook in the microwave and at what temperature? Any thoughts or...

I have so many hosts and customers who don't have microwaves or have tiny ones or just plain prefer the old fashioned "cook in the oven" method. Why in heck can't the recipes come with a "cook's tip" on how long and what temp to cook it in the oven?

What product could we use instead of a DCB for the microwave recipes? If the host's micro is too small and she doesn't want to borrow one what would you suggest? I think some of the DCB recipes don't use the lid so could any other stone work as long as it fits?

I cannot find the right size for the microwave for the dcb... I am buying one tomorrow! what cubic feet work? 1.4' 2" ??

I'm not sure if this in the right place or not What microwave do you have if you have one that fits the DCB? I'm the market for a new one since mine doesn't right now.

I really want to start using this at my shows, but I have a couple of issues with it... 1. I have a lot of people tell me that they don't like cooking meat in the microwave... 2. How do you deal with small microwaves? I had a host tell me her micro was big, and the baker BARELY fit in it...

Does anyone else lid "jump" while in the microwave? I opened up my host's microwave last night and there were tomato seeds all over her microwave door from the dcb!! yikes!

Can someone tell me the measurements that the inside of the microwave needs to be for the DCB? Mine doesn't fit in my microwave and I want to use it at my shows but don't know what the measurements need to be. TIA

Finally got a NEW microwave with a working turntable and more than 800 watts of power! It's stainless ... guess I can live with that ... I was hoping for white, but oh well! It's 1000 watts and the DCB fits PERFECTLY in it ... now I can make all those recipies you guys do.

I do a lot of pork tenderloin or chicken fajitas at my shows. The host almost always has salsa & guacamole there as well to garnish it with. I would like an easy guacamole recipe that I could have the guests do while the meat is cooking in the microwave. Or is that too much for a show? Any...

I have been wanting to get a new microwave, since I need to practice recipes at home for my shows. They have been running a little higher than I want to spend, however. Is this a deductible expense?

I am hoping to pick up a new microwave in the post-Christmas sales. I don't necessarily want a 1100 or 1200 watt one ... I had one of those and had trouble with circuits being blown. But 800 is just not enough. Plus the turntable does not turn. I've seen some 900 watt (.900 cubic feet) and...

Has anyone ever used anything other than the DCB to make chicken in the microwave? One of my customers is asking if it will work in anything else. I'm thinking for chicken breasts it would work in a pie plate or deep dish baker, but I wasn't sure if the high sides contributed to the cooking...

Has anyone used the DCB to prepare a Ham in the microwave?

I had a lady on Sunday ask me about a bag that you put your potato in then popped it in the microwave. What she is looking for is the use and care - specifically washing - instructions. Anyone remember this product. I have been in this since 2001 and do not remember this. I remember the toaster...

I know it's somewhere, but I can't find it. What is the size a microwave has to be to fit the DCB? I have a show tonight and the host may have to borrow her Mother's microwave. Thanks!

I have not made one yet but I want to take one into work for a taste test. The problem is that I will have to make this the night before as I am not allowed to do stuff like this when I am working. My question is : How does the cake taste after it sets all night and do any of the cakes need to...

Okay, I finally broke down and tried it. Here is the recipe that I used... We used Breakfast sausage and chorizo to make a Mexican type dish, but you could use just plain sausage or bacon or ham or whatever meat you like best. It was good, but could use a little tweaking. Next time I'll add...

DH just called me and gave me the bad news... our microwave just died. Ugh, why now?!?!?!? :cry: So, can someone please post the size requirements for a microwave to accomodate a DCB? Looks like I will be on the hunt tonight/tomorrow. Thank you.

I just got my new DCB and discovered that it will just fit in my microwave, but it won't rotate. I'll have to take the rotating thing out if I want to cook something in there. Does that matter if I'm doing something like the 30-minute chicken? Or will it not cook evenly? I'm thinking it will...

I love the DCB for shows. I'm just wondering if there is a quick recipe to do for shows in the oven where the host doesn't have a microwave that will fit the DCB? Is there a recipe that you have done that has been really successful using other products? Thanks. jj16:)

I am looking for some microwave recipes for the DCB. I have found a few but I absolutely love cooking with the DCB and need some more microwave recipes! It cuts cooking time down SOO much! :) Thanks a bunch!!! Skye R. Bridgmon

help! i finally tried this tonite and used the recipe on file but my cake overflowed all over the microwave, what did i do wrong?

Why oh why is that Microwave Molten Lava Cake sooooo freakin good?????? I made one for neighbor last night and I can't get it out of my mind. Curses to the person that created the 12 minute cake recipe!!!!

I made 4 batches of Loaded Baked Potato Chowder last night. On my last batch, my microwave made a weird noise. Now today, it's not working. It acts like it's working, but you check on the food and it's still cold. I'm so bummed! This is a 2 yr. old microwave and we've never had any trouble...

This cake is soooooo good. I should not really have access to a 12 minute cake. It came out perfect. Everybody loved it. This will be my standard show desert this season!!!! I told my neighbors about the cake and they want to make it so I am hoping to sell 2 fluted stoneware pans to them.

Hi! My microwave won't fit the DCB and it is over 10 years old. So, I decided to use part of my commission check and get a new one. I was in Walmart and saw a few. And, I want to go to Target to check themout there, too. I am looking to spend $100 or less. We are broke, but the old one is...

Does anyone know what the conversion is for changing recipes for the DCB from the oven to the microwave?

Will you please throw some ideas out to me on some recipes tha can be made withOUT and oven (I'm not sure how she gets along everyday w/o and oven!). I've tried talking her into a DCB show, but her microwave is too small. Thank you sooooo... much!
