Is cooking with a microwave a healthy way of cooking?
Microwaves are excellent at cooking vegetables, so you won’t need a steamer. They use little water and cook at low temperatures, so the food retains more vitamin C than with other forms of cooking. Broccoli steamed in a microwave retained 88% of its vitamin C compared with 61% when steamed and 45% when boiled. So try cooking your veg in the microwave for a few minutes and see if you can taste the difference.
