[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t use my microwave that much but for things like frozen peas, frozen corn, reheating leftovers, melting butter, etc. - I strongly prefer microwave to stovetop. Also for warming up my coffee![/quote]

The trick to heating frozen peas and corn on the stovetop is to not cook it for more than, like 2 minutes. Def a stove over a microwave option.

As far as melting butter, I just put it in a bowl on top of my stove while I preheat the oven and it usually takes care of it. [/quote]

Right but I can microwave peas in 2 mins without the need to boil water. Similarly, I can melt butter in 30 seconds. So I’m going to use the microwave.[/quote]

You shouldn't use much water to boil peas. The whole process takes less than 4 minutes. It's not hard.

It's nice if you find the microwave useful, but it hardly seems worth buying one to do peas 180 seconds faster.[/quote]

Lol. It’s not that I care how much water it takes. Boiling water takes longer. I am not sure what your point is. You claim people are sho med you don’t need a microwave then you provide pages of examples of how there are slower ways to do things in more steps. Some people appreciate convenience. You don’t. End of thread. Thanks for sharing.[/quote]

I don't think the thread can end until OP feels completely validated[/quote]
