Guide to Slow Cooking
LIQUID AMOUNTS
When food is cooking in your slow cooker, very little moisture boils away. To compensate for this, it
is advisable to reduce the liquid content of traditional recipes by half. However, if there is still too
much liquid remaining aer cooking, remove the lid and operate the slow cooker on MAX for 30 -
45 minutes, or until the excess liquid boils away.
STIRRING THE FOOD
Little or no stirring is required when using the MIN setting. When using the MAX setting, stirring
occasionally will ensure a more even avour distribution.
Always allow sucient time for foods to cook. It is almost impossible to overcook in the Slow
Cooker, particularly when using the MIN setting. Most recipes can be cooked on MIN or MAX;
however, the cooking times will vary accordingly.
Most recipes can be adapted easily for the slow cooker by reducing the amount of liquid by half,
and increasing the cooking time considerably.
See the following guide for suggested cooking times and settings for your favourite recipes:
CAUTION: Do not use removable stoneware crock on gas or electric burners or
under broiler.
NOTE: One hour on MAX is approximately equal to 2 - 2 1/2 hours on MIN.
NOTE: These cooking times are approximate. Cooking times can vary depending
on recipe ingredients and quantities. All food should be cooked with the glass lid
in place. Removing the lid allows moisture and heat to escape, and can add 30
minutes to the cooking time.
