Combo Microwave Oven - Ranges - Cooking Appliances

1. Marcus Samuelsson’s ‘New American Table’ cookbook

Why I like it: With his diverse cultural background, the Ethiopian-born, Swedish-raised and New York-based chef Marcus Samuelsson probably understands the melting pot that is American cuisine like few other cooking pros. And that’s what makes this highly personal new cookbook (Wiley), which details Samuelsson’s journey through his adopted country, such a winner. Included are more than 300 recipes — for dishes ranging from breakfast burritos to salmon flatbread to a berry cobbler.

Info: $40; available at numerous booksellers.

2. Chesapeake Bay’s Perfect Crab Cakes

Why I like them: There’s no particular secret to what makes a good Maryland-style crab cake — it should be all about the crab (meaning little to no filler). That’s what you’ll find in these beauties from the Maryland-based Chesapeake Bay catalog: The cakes are made from hand-picked jumbo lump crab with just a hint of binders and seasoning. And looking beyond crab, the catalog offers a variety of goodies from Chesapeake Bay and other places. Lemon cheesecake squares, anyone?

A: I'm not sure what a microwave / oven / grill combo is or how it works, but if she cooks like a microwave (microwave, of course) you can not use a baking anyway because it would cause a fire. Never put metal in a microwave.

You can try to put on a ceramic plate.
Or, if you are positive that you can put metal in it, the cooking section of a grocery store is usually smaller, disposable baking trays.
