About slow cooking
Slow cooking has always been the best
way to prepare nutritious hot meal with
minimum preparation and maximum free
time away from the kitchen.
Traditionally slow cooking has centred
on soups and casseroles but with this slow
cooker you can also produce most modern
family meals and dinner party dishes. The
pot is convenient as well as looking good
enough to take straight to the table for
serving (always place crock pot on a heat
proof mat or surface).
Slow cooking is ideal for preparing
tougher cuts of meat, giving them the long,
gentle simmering that ensures that they
become tender and full of flavour.
Suitable foods
Most foods are suited to slow cooking
methods, however there are a few
guidelines that need to be followed.
• Make sure all frozen ingredients are well
thawed out.
• Cut root vegetables into small, even
pieces, as they take longer to cook than
meat. They should be gently sauted 2-3
minutes before slow cooking. Ensure
that root vegetables are always placed
at the bottom of the pot and all
ingredients are immersed in the cooking
liquid.
• Trim all excess fat from meat before
cooking, since the slow cooking method
does not allow fat to evaporate.
• If adapting an existing recipe from
conventional cooking, you may need to
cut down on the amount of liquid used.
Liquid will not evaporate from the slow
cooker to the same extent as with
conventional cooking.
• Never leave uncooked food at room
temperature in the slow cooker.
• Do not use the slow cooker to reheat
food.
• Uncooked red beans must be soaked
and boiled for at least 10 minutes to
remove toxins before use in a slow
cooker.
• Insert a meat thermometer into joints of
roasts, hams, or whole chickens to
ensure they are cooked to the desired
temperature.
Looking after the crock
pot
• Authentic stoneware is fired at high
temperatures therefore the crock pot
may have minor surface blemishes, the
glass lid may rock slightly due to these
imperfections. Low heat cooking does
not produce steam so there will be little
heat loss. Due to normal wear and tear
through the products life, the outer
surface may start appearing 'crazed'.
• Do not put the crock pot or glass lid in
an oven, freezer, microwave or on a
