PROMPT May 4th Describe your cooking or baking ability. What was the last thing you cooked/baked that you we’re proud of? Are you a recipe-follower or freestyler? I am a creative cook! Sometime I follows recipe and sometimes cooks freestyle. I can cook anything in a microwave! The microwave ability comes from the time Mom and I lived in the house on Bracken Ave. The regular oven stopped working and it cost too much to have it fixed, so I cooked everything that I had to bake in the microwave. The biggest problem I had with this, was cooking a 20 lb. turkey in the microwave. I had to plan this adventure carefully several days ahead. How To Cook a 20 lb. Turkey in a Microwave Step 1: Let turkey thaw completely. Step 2: Remove giblet package from turkey's ass. Step 3: Find large sharp butcher knife. Step 4: Place sign next to telephone with the phone number of 911 in huge red letters. Or make sure this number is on your cellphone's speed dial. Step 5: Begin carving raw turkey by removing its wings. Step 6: Remove turkey's drumstick and thigh portions. Step 7: Separate turkey's thighs from its drumsticks. Step 8: Separate turkey's breast from its backbone. Step 9: It's now time to begin cooking the turkey. Each drumstick and other turkey parts have to be cooked separately in order to make sure they are cooked through. While the first drumstick or turkey part is cooking, you can begin cooking the giblets on a regular stove because they can be boiled until done. Important Note: Make sure all turkey parts are appropriately seasoned before placing them in the microwave. The time it takes to cook a turkey part in a microwave varies. Begin with 10 minutes, check the turkey part to see if it is well-cooked. If turkey part is cooked through, remove and put another part in the microwave. If the turkey part isn't completely cooked put back in the microwave for another 5-10 minutes. The only disadvantage I've found to this method is that the turkey isn't brown as it would be if cooked in a regular oven. If your guest are impolite enough to complain, tell them "Stuff it and eat!" |
