Cooking
Your Tools
The Microwave
The Microwave is the Chef's (and unlucky prisoner's) choice of heating utensil, being able to cook everything from bread to pizza and pies, as long as you select the right cook time. It has a menu layout similar to the grinder, with ingredients in the microwave on the left, and a selection of buttons on the right. You can select from a range of cooking times, spanning from Instantaneous to 30 seconds, using said buttons. Each recipe requires a different time in the microwave. If the ingredients or time are wrong, the ingredients in the microwave will either be spit out or become a burnt mess.
