    It will be interesting to see if one does come out for household use.

    We buy a canned cinnamon roll in the cold section of a supermarket, one
    of those tubes that has the rolls and a cream cheese frosting in one
    unit. The rolls are "popped" out, put on a small pan and baked, then
    iced. So, no real recipe as I don't do them from scratch.

    OK. Now I (sort of) understand. I don't think I've ever used any of my microwaves at less than full-goose-bozo power.

    That was our M.O. for a number of years until we discovered that some things do better at a lower power, maybe a bit longer, time.

    There are a number of things that we heat at less than full power, 5 out
    of 10. The full power seems to dry them out when they just need a more
    gentle heating.

    I was going to make this one to take with to Thanksgiving dinner at my friend Les' home. Then I remember his new wife keeps Kosher - so I did
    a cranberry-walnut relish instead.

    Good thing you remembered, before you made it. I couldn't have brought
    my green bean dish either; it has bacon in it. I made it with fresh
    green beans this time but I think I'll go back to the frozen, french
    cut beans. There was a bit more wasteage with the fresh than I
    wanted--but I had enough to do the dish. It's basically green beans,
    bacon (cut up, cooked) and onion sauteed in the bacon grease. Combine,
    add cider vinegar to taste and enjoy. My grandmother used to make it; I got the recipe from an aunt some years ago and have made it many times, especially in lieu of the "traditional" green bean casserole.

    That is quite different from the traditional version. OTOH, the
    traditional version with cheese soup and FF Onions is one of Gail's
    favorite dishes. The restaurant here recently served a "green bean
    casserole" that turned out to be nothing like either yours or hers. And
    it was not very good either.

    Title: Anasazi and Pinto Beans with Hominy And Green Chiles
    Categories: Main dish, Native, Stew, Casseroles, Vegetarian
    Yield: 6 servings

    1 1/2 c Dried anasazi beans
    1 1/2 c Dried pinto beans
    10 c Water
    1 ts Salt
    3 c Dried indian hominy
    3 Green anaheim chiles

    Soak the beans overnight in water to cover. In the morning rinse the
    beans with cold water and place in a large pot with fresh water to
    cover. Stir in the salt, cover and simmer slowly 2 to 2 1/2 hours,
    until the beans are tender. Add water when necessary and stir
    occasionally to prevent the beans from burning.

    Add hominy and simmer, covered, 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The
    hominy and beans should be very soft and moist, but not too watery.

    While the beans and hominy are cooking, roast, peel, seed and dice the
    chiles. Sprinkle on top of the cooked beans for garnish.

    ***Note*** Anasazi, Navajo for "the ancient ones" is the name given
    to the Native Americans who created the cliff dwellings in the
    Southwest. The sweet-tasting anasazi bean, one of the first foods
    cultivated by Native Americans, is high in protein and other
    nutrients. It also has a beautiful color.

    reheat last night when Steve was out for supper. I should have done it
    on maybe a 40% power level, 50% was a bit too high. It was still good,
    just a bit more "done" than it should have been.

    switched to professional cooks, and even later, a food service for

    nowhere near as good as the pizza the one student cook made.

    I'd have to do the dough from scratch; our bread machine is too big to

    That is quite different from the traditional version. OTOH, the traditional version with cheese soup and FF Onions is one of

    What is "FF"?

    In this case, FF onions is also known as French Fried Onions. They are
    onion strips that are fried to crispy, then canned or sealed in plastic
    packs.

    Gail's favorite dishes. The restaurant here recently
    served a "green bean
    casserole" that turned out to be nothing like either yours or hers. And it was not very good either.

    Is it hot such as hot dog, Dale? :-)

    Green bean casseroles are meant to be served as a hot side dish. I
    don't understand your reference to hot dog.

    In this recipe "french green beans" are something different. They are
    green beans which have been french cut, i.e. on a bias into longer
    pieces.

    I just last evening, as an experiment tried 50% power to heat a cuppa. Used a full 90 seconds instead of the 45 secons at full power. I did
    not detect a change in pitch from the microwave due to magnetron doing
    any cycling - so I may have an "inversion" unit.

    Was the end result the same as heating for 45 on full power? Since I
    add cold milk to previously perked coffee, my standard heating time is
    88 seconds.

    4 Carrots; sliced

    2 Onions; chopped
    1 Celery stalk; sliced
    2 ts Kitchen Bouquet; (opt)

    Place meat in crockpot. Mix flour, salt, and pepper, and pour over
    meat; stir to coat meat with flour. Add remaining ingredients and
    stir to mix well. Cover and cook on Low 10-12 hours. (High: 4 to 6
    hours). Stir stew thoroughly before serving.

    I usually don't put in the onions and last time I made stew, I tripled
    the amount of potatoes, celery and carrots. It stretches the stew
    and makes it last longer. Well, theoretically it should last longer,
    but it's usually gone in a couple of days around here!

    I think that 40 or 50% would be ok if done for a short time. All you
    really want to do is to take the chill off of the meat.

    OTOH, from your description it started out more "done" than it should
    have been for us. Although we are not in favor of the meat temperature
    that Michael liked (i.e. let it look at the broiler, and then walk to
    the table) -- we do like the center to be a warm red, i.e. rare to
    medium rare for steaks.

    Another entry in the to sear or not to sear beef cubes query.

    Since some of our crockpots heat from the side versus the bottom, it
    would be difficult to sear the meat in them if we tried to convert this
    recipe to a crockput version.

    Spread filling on top of the dough. Slowly roll dough
    into a spiral shape.

    Spray a ramekin with nonstick spray. Gently place
    cinnamon roll into ramekin. Place in microwave for 90
    seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the power of your
    microwave. I did 2 minutes in my low-power microwave,
    and it worked well. Allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before
    consuming.

    If desired, mix frosting ingredients together in a bowl.
    Allow to cool fully before adding frosting.

    Servings: 1 jumbo cinnamon roll, or 2 medium cinnamon rolls

    I just last evening, as an experiment tried 50% power to heat a cuppa. Used a full 90 seconds instead of the 45 secons at full power. I did
    not detect a change in pitch from the microwave due to magnetron doing
    any cycling - so I may have an "inversion" unit.

    Was the end result the same as heating for 45 on full power? Since I
    add cold milk to previously perked coffee, my standard heating time is
    88 seconds.

    It was, if not exactly the same, close enough for my purposes. When I
    nuke coffee from cold I want it to come out of the microwave ready-t0-
    drink without waiting for it to cool down.

    Title: Fluffy Donuts w/Coffee Cream Filling
    Categories: Breads, Snacks, Chocolate, Dairy
    Yield: 24 servings

    1/2 c Warm water (115ºF/46ºC)
    2 1/4 ts Active dry yeast
    1/4 c Sugar
    2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
    3/4 c Warm milk
    1/2 c Melted butter
    1/2 ts Salt
    4 1/2 c A-P flour
    Canola oil; for frying

    MMMMM---------------------COFFEE BUTTERCREAM--------------------------
    1 c Butter; room temp
    5 c Confectioner's sugar
    1 ts Coffee extract
    1/3 c Fresh brewed coffee

    MMMMM--------------------------GANACHE-------------------------------
    8 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips
    1/2 c Heavy cream
    1 ts Espresso powder (opt)

    FOR THE DONUTS: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm
    water, yeast and 1 tsp of the sugar. Stir and let stand
    for 5 minutes, until the mixture is frothy.

    Add the remaining sugar, milk, butter, egg and salt.

    Start to add the flour gradually while stirring, adding
    only enough just until the dough gathers in the center
    of the bowl.

    Turn the dough over onto a floured board and knead until
    the dough is smooth and elastic. To knead, use your
    palms to push the dough down and away from you, then
    fold it inwards. Push out the dough again then fold.
    Repeat until the dough is adequately kneaded.

    Shape the kneaded dough into a ball. Place it in a bowl
    and cover with a clean towel. Let it rise for 1 and 1/2
    hours until doubled in size.

    After rising, divide the dough into 2 equal portions. On
    a floured board, roll out one portion until it is 1/4
    inch thick. Use a donut cutter that is 3 inches in
    diameter to cut out as many donuts ( and holes) as you
    can from the dough. Place cut-out donuts, together with
    the holes on individual pre-cut parchment papers, and
    set them on a large tray or plate. Fold the scrap and
    re-roll, then cut out more donuts as possible. Repeat
    with the other half of the dough.

    On a medium, heavy-bottomed pan, heat about 2-3 inches
    of oil to 375ºF/190ºC. Carefully lower a few donuts at a
    time into the oil, peeling them off from the parchment
    paper before cooking. Cook on one side for 2-3 minutes,
    or until golden. Then cook on the other side for 1
    minute or less, until golden. Drain fried donuts on a
    wire rack set over a large tray, or on paper towels.

    FOR THE COFFEE BUTTERCREAM: Place your room temperature
    butter into the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl
    (if you're using a hand mixer) and beat for at least two
    minutes until it's light and fluffy. Add your coffee
    extract and beat to combine. Add your confectioners
    sugar and mix on medium until combined and add coffee to
    a good, smooth consistency. This may not require the
    full 1/3 cup.

    FOR THE GANACHE: Heat up your heavy cream in the
    microwave for about two minutes in minute long
    increments. It should be VERY hot. Pour over your chips
    and espresso powder and let it sit for one minute. Use a
    spoon to stir until it's smooth and shiny. If the
    chocolate is not completely melted, put all of it back
    into the microwave for 25 second increments, stirring in
    between, until it's smooth.

    TO ASSEMBLE: Fry your doughnuts and dip them in cinnamon
    sugar while they're still warm. Let them cool completely
    and then slice them in half. Use a round pastry tip or a
    ziplock with the corner cut out to pipe the coffee
    buttercream on one of the halves. Assemble it like a
    sandwich and drizzle the chocolate ganache as lightly or
    as heavily as you want it. Top with some walnuts if
    you'd like!

    In this case, FF onions is also known as French Fried Onions. They are onion strips that are fried to crispy, then canned or sealed in plastic packs.

    Green bean casseroles are meant to be served as a hot side dish. I
    don't understand your reference to hot dog.

    In this recipe "french green beans" are something different. They are green beans which have been french cut, i.e. on a bias into longer
    pieces.

    French-cut is just a fancy term for julienne or thinly sliced. Because
    of their slender shape, they cook faster than whole beans and offer a
    unique visual presentation. And they're a real beeeyatch to do by hand
    in my kitchen so I buy Del Monte or Libby to save my sanity (or what

    Microwave Cinnamon Roll
    Is ^^^^ such as roll-up dough ;)

    Yup!

    What is cinnamon, Dave?

    Cinnamon is a spice obtained from the inner bark of several tree
    species from the genus Cinnamomum. Cinnamon is used mainly as an
    aromatic condiment and flavouring additive in a wide variety of
    cuisines, sweet and savoury dishes, breakfast cereals, snack foods,
    tea and traditional foods. The aroma and flavour of cinnamon derive
    from its essential oil and principal component, cinnamaldehyde.

    Mix coconut flour, granulated sweetener and xanthan gum in a bowl.
    ^^^^^^^?

    Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide with many industrial uses, including
    as a common food additive. It is an effective thickening agent and
    stabilizer to prevent ingredients from separating. It can be produced
    from simple sugars using a fermentation process, and derives its name
    from the species of bacteria used, Xanthomonas campestris.

    Spray a ramekin with nonstick spray. Gently place cinnamon roll into
    ramekin.
    ^^^^^^^?

    Ramekins, or souffle dishes, are circular glazed dishes that are
    normally used to bake and serve individual portions of dishes like
    puddings, creme brulee, souffles, custards or other desserts.

    Place in microwave for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on
    the power of your microwave. I did 2 minutes in my low-power microwave, and it worked well.

    Is this for standard mechanical microwave-oven?

    What are you calling a "mechanical" microwave? If it's called that
    because you turn a dial to set the time instead of pressing buttons
    or using a pre-programmed time - then times are identical. If the
    power output of the unit is the same. If you have a lower or higher
    powered oven you should experiment and adjust the times to your needs.

    The wonderful thing about standards is that there are so many of them.

    Hi Denis,

    Institutional cooking is never as good as home made. When I was in college, for several years we had student cooks. One guy made an
    excellent pizza; it was even good on a large scale. Then the school switched to professional cooks, and even later, a food service for meals.
    Which meals are Your favorites, Ruth: ?

    Probably one of my most favorite meals is sauerbraten with gingersnap
    gravy, red cabbage and noodles. I usually make it in the fall when the
    weather starts turning cool, haven't yet done it this year tho. I like
    the ease of doing noodles instead of dumplings but the latter are also
    good. Other favorite meals come from different ethnic cultures, ranging
    from Korean to Mexican to Italian and points in between. Also, a
    favorite meal is one that, after finishing, I can walk away and leave
    the clean up to somebody else. (G)

    Hi Dale,

    Texas Roadhouse for supper Monday night; I ordered an 8 oz sirloin,
    cooked medium. That was one of the best steaks I've had in a long time
    as it was tender, cooked just right. Half of it came home with me to reheat last night when Steve was out for supper. I should have done it
    on maybe a 40% power level, 50% was a bit too high. It was still good,

    I think that 40 or 50% would be ok if done for a short time. All you really want to do is to take the chill off of the meat.

    I wanted a bit of heat to it, but definatly not cold.

    OTOH, from your description it started out more "done" than it should
    have been for us. Although we are not in favor of the meat
    temperature that Michael liked (i.e. let it look at the broiler, and
    then walk to
    the table) -- we do like the center to be a warm red, i.e. rare to
    medium rare for steaks.

    I tried a medium rare steak once; it was just a bit too rare for me.
    When I was growing up, my dad always cooked steaks to quite well done so
    even medium is a dramatic shift--but, then, I've made quite a few of
    those in my cooking/tastes since leaving home. (G) My parents used to go
    out for their anniversary with 2 or 3 other couples who celebrated their anniversary in the same week or so. Mom and Dad told us one time, after
    they'd gone out for steak that one guy liked his steak "just walk a cow
    thru a warm room". I doubt if I'll ever get to like my steak that rare.

    Another entry in the to sear or not to sear beef cubes query.

    Since some of our crockpots heat from the side versus the bottom, it
    would be difficult to sear the meat in them if we tried to convert
    this recipe to a crockput version.

    An Instant Pot (or similar) has a sear feature so you can brown your
    meat, then change over to the crock pot setting. Sometimes I'll brown my
    meat, sometimes not. Depends on what meat I'm using in the dish, time, ambition, etc.

    Hi Dave,

    I'd have to do the dough from scratch; our bread machine is too big to
    lug in the camper. Steve has made sourdough cinnamon rolls from time to time when our starter needs to be used. He will put nuts in half of the dough (for him), raisins in the other half (for me).

    I'd do both. Or currants in place of the raisins. Here's a nuke-able
    low carb and gluten-free cinnamon roll recipe - as much for Denis and Shawn as for you. Bv)=

    1 ts Cream cheese
    1 ts Heavy cream or liquid
    - coconut milk
    1 ts Powdered sweetener
    Splash vanilla extract

    It wouldn't work for me; I don't do coconut. OTOH, I could try it with
    other gluten free flours. We'll probably stick with the canned cinnamon
    rolls for camping; the pantry space is limited so we don't carry a lot
    of "from scratch" ingredients.

    Title: Spicy Fig Orange Microwave Jam
    Categories: Fruits, Citrus, Condiments
    Yield: 1 Pint

    1 1/2 c Diced fresh figs
    1/2 c Seeded, peeled orange; diced
    1 1/2 c Sugar; reduce if you want,
    - but it won't set as well
    1 1/2 ts Grated orange peel
    3 tb Lemon juice
    1/4 ts Ground ginger
    1/4 ts Ground cloves
    1/4 ts Cinnamon
    1/2 ts Butter
    2 (8-oz) canning jars

    Place the ingredients in a large ceramic or glass bowl or
    casserole (we use a 2-quart pyrex measuring cup), stir to
    combine, let sit for 30 minutes for the fruit to macerate
    in the sugar.

    Place in microwave. You will cook the fruit mixture on the
    high setting for approximately 15 minutes. As soon as the
    mixture starts to boil, after about 6 to 8 minutes, stop
    the cooking and stir. Continue cooking and stir every few
    minutes. At about 13 minutes the mixture should start to
    get viscous. If you spoon out a bit on to a small plate
    that has been in the freezer, you can push the mixture
    around a bit with your finger tip to see how thick it is.
    If it is runny, cook it a couple minutes more. You can
    also check by seeing how the jam runs off of a spoon. If
    it seems to firm up a bit as it drips, it's done.

    If you use a large pyrex measuring cup as we have done
    here, you can see that you start with close to 3 cups of
    liquid. You want to boil it down to 2 cups.

    Pour out the jam into jars, leaving 1/4-inch of headroom
    from the top of the jars. If you want to keep your jam in
    a cupboard, then use sterilized jars (heat them in the
    oven at 200øF/93øC for 10 minutes). If you plan to eat up

    If the power output of the unit is the same. If you have a lower or
    higher powered oven you should experiment and adjust the times to your
    needs.

    The wonderful thing about standards is that there are so many of them.
    I mean typical old microvawe-oven with two circles: how many
    time(1) and how many power(2), Dave.
    That *IS* old fashion. I'm not
    sure that anyone sells a new microwave with anything but digital (push-button) controls in this day and age.
    Many firms sell a new microwaves with 2 circles.

    2All: and in Your country?

    I cannot recall seeing any like that being sold "new". Possibly in the
    Charity shops like Salvation Army or Goodwill you might find one.

    The "digital" microwaves usually have pre-programmed functions like
    thawing meat/vegetables or popping popcorn, or ....... and American
    consumers are lazy and wish for as much automation as possible - even
    if the outcome is not especially "ideal".

    Title: Spicy Fig Orange Microwave Jam
    Categories: Fruits, Citrus, Condiments
    Yield: 1 Pint

    1 1/2 c Diced fresh figs
    1/2 c Seeded, peeled orange; diced
    1 1/2 c Sugar; reduce if you want,
    - but it won't set as well
    1 1/2 ts Grated orange peel
    3 tb Lemon juice
    1/4 ts Ground ginger
    1/4 ts Ground cloves
    1/4 ts Cinnamon
    1/2 ts Butter
    2 (8-oz) canning jars

    Place the ingredients in a large ceramic or glass bowl or
    casserole (we use a 2-quart pyrex measuring cup), stir to
    combine, let sit for 30 minutes for the fruit to macerate
    in the sugar.

    Place in microwave. You will cook the fruit mixture on the
    high setting for approximately 15 minutes. As soon as the
    mixture starts to boil, after about 6 to 8 minutes, stop
    the cooking and stir. Continue cooking and stir every few
    minutes. At about 13 minutes the mixture should start to
    get viscous. If you spoon out a bit on to a small plate
    that has been in the freezer, you can push the mixture
    around a bit with your finger tip to see how thick it is.
    If it is runny, cook it a couple minutes more. You can
    also check by seeing how the jam runs off of a spoon. If
    it seems to firm up a bit as it drips, it's done.

    If you use a large pyrex measuring cup as we have done
    here, you can see that you start with close to 3 cups of
    liquid. You want to boil it down to 2 cups.

    Pour out the jam into jars, leaving 1/4-inch of headroom
    from the top of the jars. If you want to keep your jam in
    a cupboard, then use sterilized jars (heat them in the
    oven at 200øF/93øC for 10 minutes). If you plan to eat up
    quickly and will keep them in the refrigerator, regular
    clean jars will do.

    Yield: Makes one pint, or two 8-ounce jars.

    What is "Goodwill"?

    Goodwill helps people improve their lives by assisting individuals to
    find a job and grow their careers. In 2019, Goodwill served more than
    25 million individuals worldwide

    They are supported by donations of ca$h and gently used merchandise
    which is sold in their stores. These, and the associated repair shops,
    are used as training tools to help their clients learn a trade and to
    become more employable. They also work with the "mentally challenged".

    2) Many organizations sell a new "mechanical" microwaves. Why You
    prefer Your model?

    I prefer the digital models which are the "standard" in USA because the settings are more precise than a vernier dial and many common functions
    are pre-programmed and available at the touch of a button.
