(Finally something more off-topic)

I cook with usually a microwave since i'm likely to set the stove on fire :)

So,What do you cook with?

It really depends on the day. I prefer cooking outdoors, but am also adept with a stove & oven in the kitchen.

Take me away from the house and I can cook you turkey in a cardboard box (over a campfire) or make you cobbler, pie, cake or dinner rolls in a Dutch oven. I can bake cookies and turnovers on a camp stove or I can wrap a side of pork in a sack and bury it in the ground for some good old-fashioned pit barbecue.

Two things I use a microwave oven for: reheating leftovers or as one oversized popcorn popper.   ;D

I generally cook with the oven and hob. Most of my dishes tend to be cooked with a wok over a high heat.  Doesn't mean I always cook chinese type food, I cook a great Beef Carbonare (not sure on the spelling), which the wife loves, which starts off being cooked in the wok and then transferred to the ovent finish off, hmm.

getting peckish now.

My preference is my 6 burner gas hob, and a 2 electric ovens. I do use a micro, but tend to only use it to heat stuff rather than cooking. Also not bad with an open fire or Barbie.

Those who've never experimented with a wok are missing out on a great cooking tool.

How do you keep Barbie from melting?   :2funny:

Scots Barbies dont melt. Only the poor quality US ones do.  :coolsmiley:

All food we eat in my family are home made coocking. The micro is as Twins say, for heating leftovers or to defrost something or pop some popcorn on a friday night.

All other cooking here comes from the stove or the barbecuegrill all arrond the year, we can grill during the wintertime to, it taste just as good as in the summertime ;)

When we have vacation, my husband often bake some newcatched fish directly on the glowing cole wrapped in tinfoile or moist newspaper. That is really tasty when you are outside at the beach.

Another thing he does sometimes is to dig a hole in the ground, fill it with cole and when the cole is glowing, he wrap the meat (often chicken then) in paper and then put it in the hole and cover it up with dirt. One hour later, he dig it up again, and i can promisse that it taste gourme food from an expensive resturant.

I love to bake and use the owen, i think it's one of the esyest ways to make dinner and have time over to do other stuff menwhile the dinner gets ready.

Ever seen that Carl's Junior commercial with the guy standing in the frozen food section starring at the food because he doesn't know what to do with it? That would be me....
