Topic: Spaghetti setting on Microwave Posted: 11 Sep 2011 at 9:34pm |
Has anyone used the spaghetti setting on their convection/microwave yet to make pasta? We're leaving for a long trip and the regular menu of dogs and burgers and ribs and chicken is a bit stale already this year.
So I see this setting on the microwave tonight and wanted to know if anyone has any how to's, success stories, or horror stories on proper way of doing it. Would love some fettucini or something some night!

The Mrs. says... "Read your owners Manual".. lol
Our micro has the 3 "P"s.. Potatoes, Popcorn and Pizza.. no Spaghetti button... But now we REALLY want you guys to experiment.. and of course.. report. Remember dogs are not as fussy as humans about their pasta..lol (in case of a minor failure..) |

No matter how many times I press those buttons on the front, I never get popcorn, or potatoes, or spaghetti, to come out. I guess I need to wait another 100 years.

Has anyone found a really good microwave cookbook? Since the microwaves now come with a convection setting, any of you cooks out there have any good recipes for the convection setting?

Spaghetti button is now considered the AWESOME button. We made and entire box of Rotini noodles to make into pasta salda which we ate on all week long. Just filled a microwave safe bowl with water about an inch about the pasta level, added a bit of salt, pushed the pasta button and I think it was 18 minute setting and we had perfect pasta. Didn't think to bring a collander though so straining the awesome pasta afterwards was problematic. The DW just pushed the button and then blinked in amazement. Simple!

You must have a Sunbeam microwave the first Rpods Rpods came with a Sylvania. I don't remember seeing a pasta or spagetti button on ours. David

Aye, it is the Sunbeam one iirc. Next time we camp I curious if I can push the pizza button throw in some peperoni and dough and sauce and see if a pizza pops out! While I'm certain that won't be the case, I'm rather impressed with those buttons thus far. They are avoided on our standard microwave at home. It's just NUKE it until it's hot. Now in the Pod with less cooking options sometimes with rain or other bad weather, we're seeing those buttons have real uses!

I was going to ask a stupid question such as, has anybody cooked a (fill in the blank) in the m-wave/convection oven, our 2011 172 has the sylvania, i sat down and started to read the manual, but I think it would be easier to shoot a 600 hundred and one half mile instrument landing with a 20 knot cross wind in a cessna 150. so has anybody given it a shot, I am going to read the manual. then I may try some cooking on it in the drive way just to get used to it.

We've used ours a lot. We do bacon and sausage in there in the mornings, quiche, biscuits. Several different kinds of casseroles and pastas now. There are still plenty of settings we haven't used, and my wife still can't figure out how to make toast in the silly thing. We keep ending up with some really nice homemade croutons every time she tries to make toast in it. She's done quite a bit of baking in it thus far though, I think the trickiest thing to date was figuring out the clock! |
