Re: Help Me Cook My Steak!
wash a baking sized potato, poke a few holes in it with a fork, wrap in saran wrap, nuke for 10-15 minutes until it's soft to the touch. The saran wrap makes it stay much more moist than just nuking it all by itself.

Re: Help Me Cook My Steak!
Saran wrap has PVC's that leach into food when cooking. If you're going to cook in plastic, make it a very hard, stiff plastic, not the flexible or soft kinds.
You could get pretty much the same effect by putting it in a cereal bowl with a plate on top.

Decent system for determining how it\'s cooked
Steak tends to become more taught as it cooks. To apply this test, poke the meaty part of your hand between your index finger and thumb, and compare it to poking the steak.
hand relaxed = medium-rare index finger and thumb out-stretched = medium fist = well done I don't know how to do rare and medium-well.
