setting guidelines
The following times are a guide only
and will vary according to the type
of food being cooked and
quantities.
low setting will gradually cook
food during the day and takes
approximately 6-8 hours. This
setting can also be used when
cooking more delicate foods which
would benefit from a slightly lower
rate of cooking such as baked
apples, poached fruit.
high setting will quicken up the
cooking process compared to the
Low setting with cooking times
between 3-5 hours.
keep warm setting – Use this
setting once food has been cooked
to keep food warm. We
recommend that food is not kept
warm for longer than 2 hours after
cooking and then switch off after
use. Taking the lid off will reduce the
temperature inside the cooking pot
so keep this to a minimum and
replace the lid quickly.
hints on using your slow
cooker
1 Prepare and use ingredients at
room temperature rather than
straight from the refrigerator.
However ingredients such as meat
and fish should not be left out of
the refrigerator for longer than is
necessary, so remove from the
refrigerator just to take the chill off
and keep covered with cling film or
plastic wrap. Do not prepare food in
advance and then leave out of the
refrigerator.
2 Cut root vegetables such as
carrots, onions, swedes etc into
fairly small pieces as they take
longer to cook than meat.
3 Cut each type of ingredient into
even sized pieces, this will assist
with even cooking.
4 Browning the meat and sauteing
the vegetables first in a separate
pan will help to remove a certain
amount of fat from the meat and
also improve the appearance and
flavour of both meat and
vegetables. However this is not
essential.
