An exceptionally useful book, which I've referred to regularly. Basically, it gives you the basic setting you need to cook various types of meat, vegetables, etc. by various oven types (convection, combo, microwave). In these days of expensive energy costs it's useful to know the most economical way of cooking to keep your costs down.

Note this is not a cookbook, it does not contain recipes but is basically a collection of cooking instructions.
