It covers all powers of microwave oven up to 1000W with an A-Z listing and tables for each food item. Tips and hints about preparing and cooking different types of food are also included. Review: A very handy handbook! - This little paperback has proved to be an excellent source of reference for me as a newcomer to owning a microwave. For years I was anti zapping my food with radiation, preferring to cook ‘properly’. However, ill health has meant it is not also possible now to spend lengthy amounts of time cooking meals in a traditional oven. Despite being a good cook, I needed not a recipe or traditional cookbook but to know how long it took to steam carrots or whether I needed to add water to something and when to cover something or cook it uncovered and at what power I needed to use etc - not recipe questions but basic microwave guidance. And this is where this little unassuming book has fully redeemed itself. It sits by the side of my new microwave and I dip into it regularly. It is hard to imagine there are still people out there like me unused to microwave cooking as most families have a microwave and it is something kids learn to use whilst still of school age. However, if like me, your microwaving to date has been not much more than heating your lunchtime soup up in the office kitchen or reheating a meal when staying with friends or family, then this book will be invaluable. It will also be helpful to those wanting to expand their microwave cooking to include more elaborate meals as it includes most of the basic food ingredients you would want to use. The book is not expensive and printed on low grade paper but it is very well organised in alphabetical order eg Pasta under ‘P’, carrots under ‘C’ etc. There are cooking times for both raw and cooked food, for dried and fresh, for meat, vegetables and pasta etc and it includes specific times for every wattage of microwave as well as indicating what the cooking power should be for each model. Whether you are packing your kid off to uni, setting them up in their first flat or have an elderly parent no longer able to use a conventional oven, or just want to expand on how you use your microwave, this book is a must. It saves the embarrassment of having to phone a friend or family member and ask ‘how long does it take to cook frozen peas in the microwave?’! Review: Does what it says in the title - Just what I wanted it to be, a quick look-up guide to microwave times for cooking everyday foods like vegetables and defrosting bread rolls. One of the best things is that it gives times for single portions too, and covers a wide range of microwave powers. There are a couple of instances where the book assumes you are using bought-in products, and a few items I looked up weren't included, but overall this is an excellent and very useful little book. ## Features - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging - No quibbles returns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 280,040 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 710 in Cooking Equipment (Books) 1,951 in Quick & Easy Meals 23,548 in Home & Garden (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 278 Reviews | ## Images ![Microwave Cooking Times at a Glance: An A-Z (Tom Thorne Novels) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619tHUVY6EL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very handy handbook! *by J***N on 22 September 2021* This little paperback has proved to be an excellent source of reference for me as a newcomer to owning a microwave.

One of the best things is that it gives times for single portions too, and covers a wide range of microwave powers. There are a couple of instances where the book assumes you are using bought-in products, and a few items I looked up weren't included, but overall this is an excellent and very useful little book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WONDERFUL - ALPHABETICAL TIMING GUIDE (NOT A RECIPE BOOK) *by D***B on 24 January 2010* This is not a recipe book, so if that's what you're looking for, this isn't for you. It's an alphabetical index of foods, with details of times required for cooking, heating, and defrosting - and giving sample weights of foods alongside the timings. It's exactly what I needed, and the alphabetical method of listing the foods makes it a quick and handy reference book to keep in the kitchen. Also, it's such a cheap book that I'm happy to keep it in the kitchen where it's likely to end up splashed with coffee and all sorts (not something I do with my "posh" cookbooks!!) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/53624163-microwave-cooking-times-at-a-glance-an-a-z-tom](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/53624163-microwave-cooking-times-at-a-glance-an-a-z-tom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-03*
