sauce.
COOKING WITH YOUR SLOW COOKER
Contrary to classical cooking methods, your appliance does not heat
food from below, but rather from the sides. The walls of the appliance
are heated and the heat is spread over the whole unit. This way the food
does not stick to the bottom of the container and may thus cook for a
long time.
All preparations that need slow cooking, i.e. to "simmer", can be made
with the slow cooker, but other preparations may be adapted to this
cooking mode.
As most food is cooked over period of 6-9 hours, it can be prepared in
advance, refrigerated in the removable crock pot, placed in the slow
cooker, and switched on in the morning and left to cook all day. When
you arrive home, a delicious, hot meal will await you.
The guide below will help simplify the process of slow cooking, allowing
you to obtain ultimate satisfaction from your slow cooker.
It's all in the timing!
Always allow sufficient time for the food to cook. It is almost impossible to
overcook in the slow cooker, particularly when using the LOW setting.
Most recipes can be cooked on any one of the temperature settings;
however, the cooking times will vary accordingly.
Adapting cooking times
Your favorite traditional recipes can be adapted easily, by halving the
amount of liquid and increasing the cooking time considerably. See the
guide that follows for suggested cooking times and settings when
adjusting your favorite recipes.
Traditional Recipe Time:
15-30 minutes
