We actually got a Samsung MW-CR23GE as a gift, so I was wondering if anyone here has messed around with this kind of microwave before.
It’s a 23-liter unit, but it’s got these built-in heaters on top and a water reservoir meant to steam the food and all that good stuff. We’d been avoiding microwaves for the longest time—probably just because of those old-school prejudices—but today I tried cooking a massive chunk of beef, maybe 3 pounds, along with a big onion (I think that was for the steam), and after about 20 minutes, we were honestly pretty shocked. The food was delicious. I’m guessing those top heaters are there to give everything a quick sear or crisp up after the "cooking" part is done. Honestly, I think this is going to cut my lunch prep time in half.
🙂
We’re super happy with it and it feels like it’s actually going to make life a little easier. The price tag was probably somewhere around $467, but considering it can basically act as a regular oven too, it doesn't seem like a bad deal at all.
