Using Cooking Tools on Non-Stick Finish: The following types of cooking
tools may be used on the non-stick finish: plastic, rubber or wooden. Do not use
sharp edged metal cooking tools (forks, knives, mashers) as these could scratch
the non-stick finish.
•
Using Cooking pot on Top of Range: The cooking pot (without heating base)
can be used for range top cooking. Place vessel on large range unit. Use
medium to low heat. The use of low to medium heat will prevent foods from
overcooking, reduce spattering and help retain natural juices. Do not use high
heat except for bringing liquids to a boil. If cooking on a gas range, do not let
flame extend up side of cooking pot. ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS WHEN
USING COOKING POT AND COVER ON RANGE UNIT.
•
Cooking Meats: When cooking meats, preheat empty cooking pot over medium
to medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until a drop of water sizzles in cooking
pot. To prevent sticking of lean meats, you may wish to add a small amount of
cooking oil. Add meat and brown as desired. Cover cooking pot and reduce heat
to low for cooking on range top OR transfer cooking pot to heating base and
cook at desired setting. The shortest cooking time will be at "HI."
•
Using Cooking pot in Oven: The cooking pot (without heating base) can be
used in a conventional or convection oven up to preheated temperatures of
350°F/177°C. Cooking pot may be covered with aluminum foil for oven use.
ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS WHEN USING COOKING POT IN OVEN.
•
DO NOT USE THE COOKING POT IN A MICROWAVE OVEN, OVER A
CAMPFIRE OR UNDER AN OVEN BROILER UNIT TO PREVENT DAMAGE
TO THE COOKING POT OR OVEN.
•
Using a Roasting Rack: Your slow cooker includes a small wire rack for
roasting meats and poultry. To use the rack, simply place into bottom of cooking
pot and place roast, chicken, or ham onto rack. Add a small amount of liquid to
cooking pot before cooking. If you wish, the meat can be browned in cooking pot
on top of range before roasting. The rack can also be used for steaming fresh
vegetables such as broccoli and corn-on-the-cob. Add 1 cup of water to cooking
pot to steam vegetables. Cook on top of range over medium to medium-low heat
or on heating base at "HI" to desired doneness.
•
Bread, Cakes & Desserts: Use an 8 x 4-inch or a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Place the
roasting rack in the pan before placing the loaf pan. Check to ensure that your
pan fits completely into the cooking pot before mixing any ingredients. To
prevent condensation from dripping onto food while baking, place double layer
of paper toweling and single layer of aluminum foil across top of cooking pot.
Cover and bake according to recipe.
