Never, ever admit to owning this: an essential guide for debrouillage

This book had sat on my shelf unread literally for over a decade until I needed a quick method for a microwave roux. It will never be your number one cooking reference; there's plenty of things in here that just aren't worth the trouble, though in 1985 when it was published the microwave oven was still just newfangled enough that everyone was trying. But one day you will have a situation where you need something quick and easily cleaned up, or all your burners are full and you don't want to pull out a new appliance. In fact, you may never use this at all -- most people never actually cook in a microwave. But when your regular cookbooks fail you, and you aren't quite yet in need of How to Repair Food, you might find something to save your butt here. (debrouillage, n. The act of getting yourself out of the weeds by any means necessary.)
