my husband received one as a gift, with no instruction about how to use it. How do you prep the garlic & what temp & how long to roast it?

Hey patti, i got mine a few months ago. I found what works best is to roast whole bulbs for an hour at 350. I can fit 3 small bulbs or 2 large ones. Prior to roasting i toss the bulbs in olive oil, salt, and pepper to fully coat the garlic which helps to prevent burning. Also, though you do want to cut the top of the bulb off to expose the garlic, try not to remove any of the garlics outer layers in the process or your garlic is likely to burn.

400 45-60 min cut the too of the garlic clove so the clove are peeking out. U can do two at a time. Put a little but of Olive oil over the top of the bulbs. Do not put in dishwasher! That is the directions off the box and I have done it that way works great!

Honestly, I tossed the box when I received it. I just Google the temperature. I do recall you slice of some of the top of the garlic head to reveal the cloves. Then, work olive oil into the cloves you just revealed. Bake and presto!

It's easy. First take whole garlic and slice the top off. Then take a good quality extra virgin olive oil and drizzle on top. Place the cast iron garlic bulb over indirect heat and roast about 15-20 minutes or until soft. I then sprinkle freshly grated parmesan cheese over the top.

I preheated the oven to 350 degrees. Keep a close eye on them. Approx. 15 minutes. I love this rack. Enjoy!

Your going to have to re-season/blacken it. Fill it with oil, preferably animal fat, and put it in a 500 degree oven for about three hours or over a fire pit.

I believe its design for garlic storage I would not put it in the oven. I believe it is not often proof it is not a garlic roaster.

I've had mine about 2 yrs and just recently threw it away, it would no longer shred the garlic. Maybe use it twice a wk, wasrather surprised that it didn't last longer. I always handwashed and then it hung on a magnetic knife block. For me personally, I won't purchase another.

I don't have the instructions any more, but it's pretty simple. Plug it in before you start preparing the quesadilla. There's a light that goes on when it's hot, but not real important. Prepare the Q on a cutting board and transfer it to the maker. I give it about 4 minutes but everyone likes them a little different. You can use any Q recipe or make them up. I typically go with refried beans, cheese, onions, peppers, some kind of meat, and a little salsa. I also usually put too much stuff in and it oozes out. Works best if you have tortillas/wraps that extend beyond the edges. The maker will seal them for you. When I take it out I use a pizza cutter to slice along the seams inside and around the outside of the Q. Hope this helps.

Isn't this the most wonderful dessert? "Cook covered on high for 3 minutes. Stir and cook for an additional 3 minutes." I have doubled the recipe and cooked it for 4 minutes, stirred and cooked for 4 minutes. It worked just fine. THANK YOU for asking this question. I have one more old box and had not read the new box. I will now cut the back off the old box and save it! Callie

No preheat needed, just add a little oil, load with food items, microwave for recommended time, and let set to finish cycle. It's been an amazing device for meat, fish, and poultry! I'm not a shill... just a well fed buyer, with a happy wife. ~Paulhttp://www.microhearth.com/index.cfm

I preheat it for about 10 min at setting "5". In my experience, settings lower than 5 will dry out the meat. It helps if you marinate it beforehand.

I would season it first-you can find good instructions on Internet. I soaked mine in eater the tub overnight then put it in oven on low heat for several hours-can't remember if I rubbed with olive oil or not

One things that works very well is to keep a pan in the bottom of the oven while pre-heating. When you put the dough in, pour a cup or two of water in to the pan. Remember, opening your oven drops the temperature about 50 degrees, give or take. So you want to keep that to a minimum.I'd highly recommend reading some Peter Reinhart. Bread Baker's Apprentice is a wonderful book to work with. I've gone through a couple copies.

For two whole garlic bulbs, set temp. at 325F and bake for 45 min. or until garlic is tender.

I would heat it in the oven, about 200F for 15 minutes, take it out with a mitt and clean it with oil on a towel, using a clean spot as needed. Then wipe it clean and dry, wiping as much of the oil off as you can and put it into the oven upside down. Heat for 1 hour at 400 - 500F past the point of smoking.

There were NO INSTRUCTIONS about seasoning the pan. Matter of fact there were NO instructions at all! I didn't do anything other than take it out of the box, washed it and I have used it. It cleans up just fine! NO PROBLEM.........YET !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't recall this having come with instructions. Basically you put about 2-3 tablespoons (40 mL) of water in the bottom and your food in the basket, put the basket in the bottom and put on the top. Microwave the entire assembly on high for 1.5-3 minutes depending on the food type, the quantity of food, and desired doneness. You'll have to experiment. Be careful when opening, since the device will be full of hot steam.
