Getting the best from your
new appliance...
Safety
Never touch the outer enclosure of
the slow cooker during it’
s operation
or before it has cooled down. Use
oven gloves when removing the lid
or ceramic pot.
Ef
ficiency
Removing the lid will allow heat to
escape, reducing the ef
ficiency of
your slow cooker and increasing the
cooking time. If you remove the lid
more than a couple of times to stir
or add ingredients, then you will
need to allow 10-15 minutes extra
cooking time each time you remove
the lid.
Enjoy the benefits
Slow cooking gives you convenient,
versatile and flavoursome food.
Longer cooking times allow better
distribution of flavours, giving them
time to blend and season the food.
A slow cooker heats food gently,
making it a gr
eat way to cook
meats, less expensive cuts in
particular
, such as stewing beef,
which are tenderised through the
long cooking process. Remember,
there are no limits to the potential
uses of your slow cooker, only your
imagination!
