I was taught years ago that egg yolks would burst in a microwave unless they were pierced first! What a relief to see that’s not true. I only recently discovered this channel and am learning a lot. Thanks.
I'm grateful for your support and kind words! It's important to note that egg yolks can indeed explode in microwave ovens given enough time. As demonstrated in the video, my approach involves closely monitoring the timing and removing the egg before the liquid inside the yolk turns to steam. I have another video that you might find interesting. It includes 11 original kitchen tips. I will include the link. Thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧔 th-cam.com/video/MMvBho2c1h4/w-d-xo.html

Thank you Nancy, for your feedback The reason the yolk doesn't blow up in the microwave it's because it's not in long enough. Think about the way popcorn pops in a microwave. The moisture inside the popcorn kernel is heated from a liquid to a gas. When the gas is sufficient (steam) it causes the kernel to explode. If you put the popcorn in the microwave for only 40 seconds and took it out it wouldn't have enough time to create pressure to cause the explosion. And that's the reason the egg doesn't explode. It's because there's not enough time to build up the pressure. I appreciate the thumbs up, Mike
@@KitchenTipsOnline can you tell me how long poached eggs would need to be in the microwave for it to blow up? Did you hear about the woman who was hospitalized because the egg exploded after she took it out of the microwave?
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you found the video helpful.

Well George, I appreciate that. But if folks are going to take the time to write them, the least I can do is take the time to read them. I appreciate the feedback, Mike 🧓
I do eggs in a microwave all the time. I spray oil in a small bowl and beat an egg in it. 1 min. For 1 egg. 2 min. For 2 eggs. The eggs come out round and I put on bagel with a piece of sausage and cheese for my husband to take to work.
That's a great way to do it! [Spraying oil and beating the egg] definitely helps the eggs cook evenly and come out nice and round. One minute per egg sounds perfect. I love that you use them for a breakfast sandwich for your husband - that's a delicious and time-saving idea for busy mornings. Thanks for sharing your tip! Mike 🧔
Welcome back David! Once again as usual you are one of the early folks with kind words. I truly appreciate your feedback! As for Toby, it looks like he is more popular than I am, haha. Mike ☺
I use a desert dish. First I coat the bottom and sides generously with margarine then add three eggs and whip up with a fork. Place in a 1200 watt microwave for 30 seconds, remove and stir. Put back for another 20 seconds, remove and stir. Put back in for 15 seconds and stir again. If you want them done a bit more maybe another ten seconds. Tastes great every time. Sometimes I add diced ham or sausage.
I luvvit! I once thought of making a cook book for guys that got out of high school without thinking about how to cook, such as what canned foods mix well in a single pan... I think I'll leave it to you Brother
Hey there! Thanks so much for both your comments and for watching my video. 😊 I'm thrilled to hear that you loved it! Creating a cookbook for guys who are just starting out in the kitchen is an awesome idea! Cooking can seem daunting at first, but with simple and practical recipes, it becomes a lot of fun. Mike 🧔
Interesting video and cool microwave tip, which I'll share with my sister. However, I always cook eggs in a cast iron skillet, as I do many things. Nice channel.
Appreciate the love! Who knew microwaves could be so versatile, right? Happy to hear you'll be sharing the eggcellent news with your sister. I'm with you - a properly seasoned cast iron skillet definitely makes better-tasting eggs. 😊🍳 Mike 🧔
Yes, MORE TOBY! I had no idea that microwaves lost power over time but why popcorn Mike? I was trying to figure out how the heck you got a camera to work in there, but all I can come up with is it's wrapped in something. GREAT video Mike..
John Lemons, Okay John more Toby! Sorry I cannot reveal my secret unless somebody figures it out. For the record, the camera was not wrapped in anything, it was a GoPro camera sitting directly on the glass plate. By the way, the reason that popcorn is rough on microwaves is that as the popcorn cooks, the load diminishes because the moisture inside the popcorn turns to steam and gets vented out of the microwave. Everyone knows you should never operate a microwave with nothing in it. However by the time the popcorn is finished cooking, there's very little load left and that causes the magnetron to heat up resulting in premature death. That's why you should never try to pop every kernel of popcorn. When the kernel cracks from the manufacturing process, the moisture dries up and it will never ever expand and turn into popcorn. Mike ☺
If your not making bacon can you use pam to spray your dish with a little water for sunny side eggs? Do you have to pop the yolks (two) before microwaving for one minute with cover?
Thanks for the tip about making bacon using pam. If you cook two eggs in the microwave you'll probably get away without breaking the yolks. Just to be safe make sure the eggs are covered. Mike 🧔
Angie Dobson, Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. I will put you down for a Toby yes vote. Believe me, he's keeping track of every single one of them, haha. Mike ☺
Hi MIKE , thoroughly enjoyed ur video ...I wayched it 3 times & nowhere could i find any Power Settings for cooking the 3 scrambled eggs , coz the amounts of times you stated seemed to be too much at a full power setting even for a smaller liwer power microwave ...And the same for the Veggies & the Bacon ... Power settings would be real helpfull BEFORE I attempt to blow up my breakfast , LOL...🥚🥚🥚🍳🍳🍳🌶🌶🌶🥓🥓🥓
Hi Arthur, thanks for checking out my video! I'm really glad you liked it. In the video, all the cooking was done using the highest microwave setting, which is 1100 watts on my microwave. How long you should cook your eggs depends on your microwave's power and the number of eggs you're cooking-whether it's two, three, or more. What I suggest is that you cook them on high power, but make sure to pay attention to how long it takes for the eggs to cook just the way you like them. If you're making three scrambled eggs, I'd recommend starting with 2 minutes as a baseline and adjusting from there to get the perfect result. Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline I will give it a shot , mine is a medium sized microwave & so far anything over a minute the eggs would blow up , whether poaching , steaming , or scrambling in one of those earthen egg cookers with the lid with a little chimney on top that has me add a teaspoon of water to it , even if they're not done I have to add short times to finish but over a minute always ends with me cleaning my microwave .... BUT , I will give your method a try , THANKS for sharing & for Responding to my questions ...They did look very good ...Actually I do like soft scrambled eggs too & that putting them in the middle then stirring them together & giving them just a few more seconds I believe would make them come out Soft Scrambled , seems like I have a little experimenting to do...👍👍👍👋👋👋
Thank you for your videos! They are so fun and informative and you are an expert food scientist. I learn so much from these videos. And how in the world can a GoPro survive in the microwave without getting fried? I thought you’d couldn’t put anything metallic in the microwave. More Toby! Much appreciate you.
Just found your channel tonight... wow I'm watching a lot of your vids! Camera in the microwave... you used a microwave with a magnetron that didn't work but working light and turntable. The food was cooked in another microwave and put in uncooked then cooked in the one with the non-working magnetron.
Well I appreciate you watching lots of videos so I will tell you exactly how I did the camera in the microwave. I put a switch on the 120 volt side of the transformer that powers the magnetron. I installed the switch coming through the cover of the microwave at the top so I could turn off power to the transformer, thereby turning off power to the magnetron. As far as the lights, that was done post-production using a lens flare and Adobe Premiere. So there you have it!
@@KitchenTipsOnline I'm thinking you would just set the power level to zero, and then after 10 seconds or so of recording, just remove the camera, and then cook at the correct proper level. Then no need for going through hassle to install a switch??
Thank you for your comment! 😊 Corned Beef Hash and Scrapple are both classic breakfast staples with rich histories and unique flavors. Corned Beef Hash is a delicious combination of corned beef, potatoes, and onions, all fried together to create a savory and hearty dish. It’s a great way to use up leftover corned beef and can be enjoyed with eggs or on its own. Scrapple, on the other hand, is a traditional dish from the Pennsylvania Dutch, made from pork scraps and cornmeal, seasoned with spices, and then fried to crispy perfection. It’s a bit of an acquired taste for some, but many find it to be a comforting and flavorful addition to their breakfast plate. Both of these dishes definitely make for fabulous breakfast tucker! 🥓🍳 Maybe I’ll do a video on them in the future. Thanks for the suggestion, Mike 🧔
Great video about cooking eggs, Mike! Yes please keep Toby in your videos as he is a Dora Ball. How would I make hard cooked eggs instead of sunny side up eggs in the microwave? ♥️♥️♥️
Gaila Gilliland, Thanks for the kind words and your feedback. Toby's getting a lot of love so it looks like he's going to be in future videos, haha. As far as making the eggs more firm in the microwave, all you need to do is set the timer on the microwave for just a little bit more time. You will have to test your particular microwave to determine how long that is. With my microwave, it would only be about 20 seconds longer. Mike ☺
What power is your microwave? I glad you shared that microwave'd lose their power over time. I know the best one is a 1100 watt. Mine is only 900 do I have to cook things longer. Having said that it probably isn't even ,900 now b/c I've had it do long. Please advise. Thank You! Much appreciated!
My microwave is 1100 Watts. If you do a Google search you can find a method to test the current output of any microwave. I'm not sure of the exact procedure but I know it involves measuring the temperature of an exact amount of water before you start. Heating it for specific about a time and then measuring the temperature at the end of the time interval. That will give you an estimated current output of your microwave magnetron, Mike 🧔
Brilliant yet again Toby x Mike in that order 😃Lol! As for the camera in a microwave ....do you add salt x pepper to that before cooking ?😲 Well done Mike on a simple put oh so easy and .....why didn't I do that before moment 👍👌
Bridget Salter, So I'm guessing you're a Tobe fan? Haha! ♥ Once again, thank you for the feedback and the kind words. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. Mike ☺
Shelly you are absolutely correct the wattage of the microwave has a big effect on how long something Cooks. The microwave I used in the video is 1000 watts. I sold it when I sold that house. Here is the equivalent microwave on Amazon if you want to check it out. Mike amzn.to/3UCIYKH
Of course I want to see more of Toby! I love sunny side up eggs so I was delighted to see this video. I can’t wait to see your poached eggs video because I love those too.
Yeah unfortunately my little buddy Toby the dog in the video had to be put down. He had major liver issues. Thanks for your feedback. But you're not likely to see a cat anytime soon, haha, Mike 👍🧔

1982 I worked at a deli when microwaves were getting popular. We would place an egg in a plastic bucket, break the yoke to make/sell egg sandwiches. Scrambled also. yuck. Of course back then, major cold cut distributers sold breaded tuna, egg, chicken and shrimp salad and our customers really didin't know the difference.
You are correct my friend I am definitely going to look into that! I appreciate the heads up. Here is the link that should have been there. Thanks, Mike 🧔 amzn.to/4a9gWMc

@@KitchenTipsOnline Thanks Mike, I use a 800w microwave (23 years old). What percentage of time should I increase to obtain the results shown in your video? You see I have been watching other egg cooking videos and never obtain the results in the times stated.
Ah, I think I see the issue here! My grandmother always told me the trick is to use medium-sized chickens and small eggs for the best results. She used to say that large chickens have too much leg room, and the eggs get distracted while trying to cook. Try switching to a medium chicken, and those eggs will be sizzling in no time! Mike 🧔
I misunderstood you. Personally I would not use paper plates. I don't think you'll be satisfied with the results of either the bacon or the egg, Mike 🧔
R. Earl, Sorry Earl, I cannot divulge my secrets because I'm waiting for someone to figure it out. Nothing like a little mystery to keep life exciting 😉. Perhaps you saw near the end of the video where I put the bacon in the microwave with the camera running, then I took the finished cooked bacon out of the microwave on camera. Well not long after that I suggested that if anyone wants to try and figure out how we did the camera in the microwave, I would tell them if they were right. So far, no one has even come close. Mike ☺
You first placed the camera in the microwave. Then you sit the dish in the microwave and left the microwave door just barely open so light remained on. Them you stopped camera arranged bowl just a little in microwave. Left microwave door open a small amount so light stayed on. You continued this technique until bowl was position all the way around carousel. Use put in the sound of the microwave into the video and clipped together the little segments of moving the bowl inside microwave to make it seem like it was moving. Then you added special effects to video.
Sorry my friend that's not how I did it. Actually you can not barely hold the microwave door open and turn it on. There are three switches on the every microwave actuated by the two latches on the door that will cause the fuse to blow on the microwave in the event that the door is not completely closed and power is applied. For the record, the door was completely closed while the camera was inside and the turntable was going around.
The microwave was moving and the dish stayed in the same place.... this must be what an LSD flashback is like lol I really like this technique using the pie plate for the scrambled eggs and the bacon. I like my fried eggs crispy on the bottom but this will work for hubby who does not. All these TIPS help tremendously. Oh and that adorable Toby? OF COURSE we want to see him. There's STAR POWER written all over that pooch. :o)

I did try my baked potato like you said. I used a different container than you but ....it honestly worked. Thank You for sharing.
Thanks for having the courtesy to come back and leave feedback! I appreciate it, Mike 🧔
Thank you so much. My husband loves eggs.
Thanks Darcy! Nice to hear from you again. I always appreciate your feedback, Mike 🧔
Toby is lovely. Great to see him enjoying himself.
Patricia, Toby is getting older and slowing down a bit. Kind of just like me, haha. Thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧔
Opening shot was excellent
Thanks 🧔
What power is your microwave? I glad you shared that microwave'd lose their power over time.
I know the best one is a 1100 watt. Mine is only 900 do I have to cook things longer. Having said that it probably isn't even ,900 now b/c I've had it do long. Please advise.
Thank You! Much appreciated!
My microwave is 1100 Watts. If you do a Google search you can find a method to test the current output of any microwave. I'm not sure of the exact procedure but I know it involves measuring the temperature of an exact amount of water before you start. Heating it for specific about a time and then measuring the temperature at the end of the time interval. That will give you an estimated current output of your microwave magnetron, Mike 🧔
Brilliant yet again Toby x Mike in that order 😃Lol!
As for the camera in a microwave ....do you add salt x pepper to that before cooking ?😲
Well done Mike on a simple put oh so easy and .....why didn't I do that before moment 👍👌
Bridget Salter, So I'm guessing you're a Tobe fan? Haha! ♥ Once again, thank you for the feedback and the kind words. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. Mike ☺
How many watts ypur microwave cools at must have an effect on cook time too.
Shelly you are absolutely correct the wattage of the microwave has a big effect on how long something Cooks. The microwave I used in the video is 1000 watts. I sold it when I sold that house. Here is the equivalent microwave on Amazon if you want to check it out. Mike

I cook a lot of popcorn. Almost every day. I love it. And it's cheap.
No doubt the easiest way to make pop corn in the microwave. Thanks for your feedback, Mike
Toby is adorable. I love seeing him! My son too, who loves your videos!
Thanks Amy, for taking the time to leave feedback! I appreciate it, Mike 🙂
Yes leave Toby in the show.🥰
I will tell Toby that you're up fan! Mike 🧔
Hi I love the video, will be watching others. What kind of glass bowl is that what you put the eggs in? Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words Randall, I appreciate the feedback. I cooked the eggs in a glass pie dish that you can get anywhere including Amazon. Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline ok thank you sir!
@@randallland6739 You're welcome 🧔
Love Toby, a bit late but, what can u do? Toby looks like a lot of fun & laughter.
novak1928, I'll tell Toby that you are a fan. Thanks for your feedback, Mike ☺
I think To y is a great addition to your videos. Hope To y makes more guest appearances. AWWWWWWW.
You're very kind. Unfortunately Toby had liver problems and passed away. I miss my little buddy and think about him every day, Mike 🧔
I'm disabled so cooking on the stove is hard for me. This looks so much easier!Thank you. XD
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback, Mike 🧔
Of course I want to see more of Toby! I love sunny side up eggs so I was delighted to see this video. I can’t wait to see your poached eggs video because I love those too.
Dori, Thanks for the kind words. More Toby it is the. Mike ☺
Fewer dogs, more cats! Seriously, though, this is great - I plan to give the scrambled eggs a try soon!
Yeah unfortunately my little buddy Toby the dog in the video had to be put down. He had major liver issues. Thanks for your feedback. But you're not likely to see a cat anytime soon, haha, Mike 👍🧔
Toby YESSS!!!
Jim Challender, Thanks, I will tell Toby you are a fan, Mike ☺
I love Toby and your videos.
Thank you Sharon, I will tell Toby that you are a fan. I appreciate the kind words, Mike 🧓
Cool dog! Toby 🐕👍. Love the bacon and eggs in the microwave. I'm going to try that.
Thanks for your feedback, I will tell Toby that you are a fan, Mike 🙂
Love seeing Toby
Thanks Nancy I appreciate it. Unfortunately Toby had liver issues and passed away in the spring of this year. I think about him every day. He was my little buddy, Mike 🧔
Thank you sir. You just saved me money from the cafeteria downstairs. They charge $6 dollars for an egg sandwich.
Empress Zaire, you are welcome my friend, thanks for your feedback, Mike ☺
It appears this comment was posted in 2019 and here we are in 2024 and it’s very common here in San Diego to be as high as $12. That’s insane inflation 😕
MIKE! This was awesome!
Thanks for the kind words and the thumbs up. I appreciate the feedback, Mike 😁
Oh yes, more Toby.
Marilyn McClintock, Thanks, Toby seems to have a lot of fans. ☺ Mike
What I wanted as tutorial material,great job and thanks...
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback, Mike 🧔
Amazing
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.🧔
Could not find the chopper in the link. I liked your's because it was small.
Unfortunately the exact one that I have is no longer available but the replacement from what appears to be the same company it's just a little bit bigger. I moved it to the top of the store for you. I appreciate your support! 😀 Here is the link, Mike 🧔 amzn.to/3uSTpjl
Ok well try this out thanks
You're welcome. I hope you have the perfect potato, Mike 🧔👍
Well of course we Love Toby 💙
Michelle Mcbride, I will tell Toby that you're a fan, ☺
Nice dog. I loved. Thanks for your tips. But can I cook pieces of bacon, the cooking cheap bacon? Not the rashes
Yes you can!
I thought that was Mark Hamill looking into the microwave/camera at first 👍🏻
Thanks for the helpful cooking tips, including the bottle trick!🙂
More of Toby for sure 🐶
Perhaps it was Mark Hamill, haha. I will tell Toby that you are a fan! Thank you for the feedback, Mike 🙂
Toby is like a walking cartoon! Love the video!
Yes Toby is a hoot! Thank you for the feedback, Mike 🙂
Toby is fun to watch so let him be a star😎
I will tell Toby that you are a fan! Thanks for the feedback, Mike 🧔
Hey Mike, As always an awesome great video. With great cooking tips. Thank you for sharing it. Yes, I want to see more of Toby. How could anyone not like Toby? Many thumbs up on your video & channel. I hope you and your family and Toby have a Blessed Week.
Thanks Tom, I will let Toby know what you said. The reason I question whether or not to include Toby in videos is because I usually include him near the end of a video and noticed that 60% of the people stop watching the video just before Toby. Once again, thanks for your kind words. Mike ☺
Where did you get your oven hood? I'm looking for one for almost the same tight installation.
The hood was made by a company called Broan. I purchased it online but I'm not sure where maybe Amazon. Mike 🧔
Thank you.
You're welcome 🧔
1982 I worked at a deli when microwaves were getting popular. We would place an egg in a plastic bucket, break the yoke to make/sell egg sandwiches. Scrambled also. yuck. Of course back then, major cold cut distributers sold breaded tuna, egg, chicken and shrimp salad and our customers really didin't know the difference.
Oh yeah, the good old days when microwave ovens were considered to be the best thing since sliced bread. Thanks for your feedback, Mike 🧔
No links for anything you described. What's up with that?
You are correct my friend I am definitely going to look into that! I appreciate the heads up. Here is the link that should have been there. Thanks, Mike 🧔 amzn.to/4a9gWMc
Don’t have to pierce the eggs so they don’t explode in the microwave? New subscriber 😊
Rose Canada, the eggs for an in long enough for that to happen, Mike ☺
Love Toby!!! ❤️
I will tell Toby that you are a fan, Mike 🙂
I love seeing Toby!!
Thanks 🧔
Humorous bit is Toby is basically the spitting image of my dog Lol Recipes pretty good as well. Though you don't need special microwave covers. There is a reason they invented saucers.
The sunny side eggs up look delicious. I wish you had cut them so we could see the runny yolk.
Thanks for the kind words. Yes I agree with you it would have been a better demonstration had I cut the yolk. Mike 🧔
More TOBY!!!! YAY!!!!!
David Harrington, thanks for your feedback, I will tell Toby that you are a fan. He makes an appearance in our video about air fryers. I will include the link in case you have not seen the video, Mike ☺ th-cam.com/video/2ypfmtGN0Ro/w-d-xo.html
I wonder what power the microwave that Mike is using? Is it a 800w or 900w etc.?
It's actually 1100 watts. But keep in mind that as microwaves get older, their power diminishes. Especially if you cook a lot of popcorn. Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline Thanks Mike, I use a 800w microwave (23 years old). What percentage of time should I increase to obtain the results shown in your video? You see I have been watching other egg cooking videos and never obtain the results in the times stated.
There are too many variables for me to be able to give you a specific time. You will simply have to experiment and see how it goes, Mike
@@KitchenTipsOnline Thanks Mike, I did not think that one could pin a time down, but nevertheless I thought that I would air the point!
Keep Toby, he is so cute😊💕
Thanks I will tell Toby what you said, Mike 🧓
MORE TOBY!!! 🐕💕😊💕🐕😊🐕
Renette Hicks, more Toby it is! Thanks for your feedback. I will tell Toby that you are a fan. Mike ☺
thank you for this i been putting eggs inside a large chicken with it's legs standing up and just waiting for the eggs to cook
Ah, I think I see the issue here! My grandmother always told me the trick is to use medium-sized chickens and small eggs for the best results. She used to say that large chickens have too much leg room, and the eggs get distracted while trying to cook. Try switching to a medium chicken, and those eggs will be sizzling in no time! Mike 🧔
Would definitely like to see more of Toby and ty for very informative videos -_ they have explained a lot of my questions.
D Remy, thank you so much for the kind words and feedback. I will pass the word on to Toby that you are a fan, Mike ☺
Love microwave recipes
Thanks 🧔
awesome dude
Thanks! 🧔👍
Lovin’ Toby
Okay I will tell him you are a fan! Mike 🙂
I absolutely love, love, love your voice! I need Toby!! Just wanna snuggle with him 🤗
You're very kind! I will tell Toby that you are a fan. Thank you very much for the feedback, Mike 🙂
This guy is obviously some kind of wizard or man witch.. I can't stop watching.. Help me.. please..
Well that's better than what my former spouse used to call me! 🤪
I love Toby 😭
Marilena Barrera, ha ha, thanks, I will tell Toby that you are a fan. Mike ☺
Is it possible to cook the bacon and/or the eggs on a paper plate? I am disabled and it’s very hard for me to do dishes.
Sorry but you cannot cook bacon and eggs at the same time in the microwave. Bacon cooks significantly longer then the eggs. Mike 🧔
@@KitchenTipsOnline Sure, but I meant can I cook them on a paper plate individually?
I misunderstood you. Personally I would not use paper plates. I don't think you'll be satisfied with the results of either the bacon or the egg, Mike 🧔
More Toby 👍👍👍
Jimmy Reuben, Now I know, Toby has a lot of fans. Thanks for your feedback. Mike
Nice montage , trippy
Thanks 🧔
Toby is so cute🐶
Tina Fields, Thanks, I will tell him, Mike ☺
To by or not To by? That is the question. Yes, definitively more TOBY in your show.
Okay thanks I will tell him that you are a fan. 😊
Toby is the best!!!¡!!
Thanks 🧔
Please tell me how you did the camerawork in the microwave. That caught my interest right off the bat!
R. Earl, Sorry Earl, I cannot divulge my secrets because I'm waiting for someone to figure it out. Nothing like a little mystery to keep life exciting 😉. Perhaps you saw near the end of the video where I put the bacon in the microwave with the camera running, then I took the finished cooked bacon out of the microwave on camera. Well not long after that I suggested that if anyone wants to try and figure out how we did the camera in the microwave, I would tell them if they were right. So far, no one has even come close. Mike ☺
You first placed the camera in the microwave. Then you sit the dish in the microwave and left the microwave door just barely open so light remained on. Them you stopped camera arranged bowl just a little in microwave. Left microwave door open a small amount so light stayed on. You continued this technique until bowl was position all the way around carousel. Use put in the sound of the microwave into the video and clipped together the little segments of moving the bowl inside microwave to make it seem like it was moving. Then you added special effects to video.
Sorry my friend that's not how I did it. Actually you can not barely hold the microwave door open and turn it on. There are three switches on the every microwave actuated by the two latches on the door that will cause the fuse to blow on the microwave in the event that the door is not completely closed and power is applied. For the record, the door was completely closed while the camera was inside and the turntable was going around.
@@KitchenTipsOnline Wow!!! You got me stumped.😕
I love Toby!
Cindy Thomas, I will pass the word on to Toby that you are a fan! Thanks for your feedback, Mike ☺
The microwave was moving and the dish stayed in the same place.... this must be what an LSD flashback is like lol I really like this technique using the pie plate for the scrambled eggs and the bacon. I like my fried eggs crispy on the bottom but this will work for hubby who does not. All these TIPS help tremendously. Oh and that adorable Toby? OF COURSE we want to see him. There's STAR POWER written all over that pooch. :o)
Tonithenightowl, Haha, I think you must be channeling Timothy Leary. Thank you so much for the kind words and your feedback. Toby seems to be getting a lot of love so it is very likely that you will be seeing him in future videos. Also please tell your friends about our Channel! Still working on poached eggs and an omelet in the microwave. Mike ☺
Mike, you're welcomed and I'm sure you'll figure it out. That's why people should sub AND ring the bell.:o)
Thanks ☺
This is good to know if you don't have a cook top and a skillet or wash your own dishes.
Thanks! I appreciate your feedback I just uploaded another video that you may find very useful. I invite you to check it out, Mike 🧔 th-cam.com/video/m1h5BLilVuk/w-d-xo.html
Im in a motel, appreciate this!
You're welcome! Appreciate the feedback, Mike 🧔
Want to make a steak at home that tastes exactly like Outback or Longhorn Steakhouse? 🧔If so, watch the following video: th-cam.com/video/EEfjYD0GEDI/w-d-xo.html
Hi, Mike! First of all...Thank you so much for all of your videos! I thought I saw one of your videos where you made a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit...but egg was the biscuit. I was at work and didn't get to see the recipe. I have scoured through so many of your videos and I now can't find it. I have to watch my carbs so regular biscuits are a no no. Can you tell me where to find it? BTW I just love Toby!❤
You're very welcome. Thank you for the kind words. I didn't make a video on an egg biscuit but I did make a video on how to make an Egg McMuffin at home. Here is the link for that, Mike th-cam.com/video/RQtFyHozMN8/w-d-xo.html
Love sweet Toby!!!!
Thanks Karen I will tell Toby that you are a fan! Mike 🙂
I love your voice!
Well, thank you so much! 😄 I always thought my voice was a bit like a mix between a friendly neighbor who's always ready for a chat and a voice in your head that encourages you to eat that extra slice of pizza, even when you know you probably shouldn't! But seriously, I'm thrilled you love my voice. Keep watching, and I'll keep talking! Mike 🧔 🎤😉
Yes Toby!!
I will tell Toby that you are a fan. Thanks for the feedback, Mike 🧔
yum!!
