About Slow Cooking

Slow cooking has traditionally been used for soups and casseroles but it can also cook most modern family meals. Slow cooking has always been the best way to cook a delicious hot meal with the minimum preparation.

The cooking temperature is the same on both settings, so the setting you choose merely dictates how quickly the slow cooker gets up to temperature. The lower setting (usually 8 hour to 10 hours cooking times) heats food gently, whereas the higher setting (4 hour to 6 hours cooking times) will heat food quicker.

NB the Slow Cooker will not ‘boil’ food but gently cook it over a long period of time.

Instructions for use

Cooking

- Place the base on a dry, level, heat resistant surface, away from the edge of the work surface. Do not use on the floor.

- Place the ingredients into the ceramic pot and place the pot into the base.

- Cover with the glass lid. If you need to pre-cook or brown ingredients prior to slow cooking, this must be done in a pan. Do not try to brown or pre-cook food in the slow cooker.
