B. Operating instructions
Slow cooking involves cooking food very gently in its own juice

or in a sauce, generally in a casserole. After adding a liquid, the
preparation is then covered again with the lid and simmered over
low heat for the preparation time called for in the recipe.

For traditional dishes (beef Bourguignon, mutton stew, Provençal
stew, etc.) it is preferable to brown the meat over high heat before
cooking it in the bowl to eliminate fat and give it a colour that will

improve the taste of your preparation.
