[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]

It’s more than 180 seconds, but if you’ve ever fed toddlers you’d know that 180 seconds is reason enough![/quote]
