Monica Scott has produced one of the first complete recipe cookbooks featuring microwave soups.
“I got tired of looking for collections of recipes,” she says, “so I decided to produce my own.”
Here finally are her favorites—more than 50 quick, easy, and tasty soups that you can make in fewer than 20 minutes in your microwave.
Her recipes include the use of basic vegetables like potatoes, onions, split peas and asparagus, but also incorporate foods like lentils, turkey, chicken, and broccoli. You will find her simple quick basic potato soup, but other potato recipes featured are potato bacon, cream of potato; creamy beef, sausage and potato; leek and potato, and more.
To excite your dinner guests, you’ll want to try some of the unique methods described to produce oriental chicken soup, cream of broccoli cheese soup, Provence fish soup, or Monica’s super split pea soup.
Tasty, yes, but also nutritious. She points out that using a microwave with small amounts of water steams food from inside out and keeps more vitamins and minerals than any other cooking method. Microwave cooking heats fast and keeps nutrients from escaping. In short, cooking that keeps nutrients best is one that not only heats quickly for a short time, but also uses little liquid.
To get started with these wonderful recipes, you only need a microwave, a high-speed blender, and a few microwave friendly dishes, bowls and plates that Monica describes. She takes time also to describe the actual invention of the microwave through the work of engineer Percy Spencer.
Finally, she adds a valuable bonus to the recipes with a section on kitchen tips. For example, readers will be amazed to see that putting garlic in the microwave for 15 seconds will make the skins slide right off.
Don’t delay your wonderful cooking experiences any longer. You won’t find a faster way to healthy soup enjoyment than Monica's Microwave Soup Cookbook..
