Care & Cleaning - Telstar TCL006310CT Manual De Instrucciones

• Some ingredients are not suitable for slow cooking. Pasta, seafood, milk, and cream should be added
towards the end of the cooking time. Many things can affect how quickly a recipe will cook, water and fat
content, initial temperature of the food and the size of the food.
• Food cut into small pieces will cook more quickly. A degree of 'trial and error' will be required to fully
optimize the potential of your slow cooker.
• Root vegetables usually take longer to cook than meat, so try and arrange vegetables in the lower half
of the pot.
• After food is cooked, switch cooker off and leave covered with the lid. There will be enough heat in the
ceramic pot to keep warm for 30 minutes. If you require longer to keep warm switch to the low setting.
• All food may be covered with a liquid, gravy or sauce. In a separate pan or jug prepare your liquid, gravy
or sauce and completely cover the food in the ceramic pot.
• Pre-browning meat and onions in a pan to seal in the juices also reduces the fat content before adding
to the ceramic pot. This improves the flavor but is not necessary if time is limited.
• When cooking joints of meat, ham, and poultry etc the size and shape of the joint is important. Try to keep
the joint in the lower 2/3 of the pot and fully cover with water. If necessary, cut in two pieces. Joint weight
should be kept within the maximum limit.
CARE & CLEANING
Always make sure the slow cooker is unplugged and in the OFF position before storing away or cleaning. Make
sure the unit has cooled down completely before cleaning.
- The stoneware insert is dishwasher safe or can also be cleaned with warm soapy water. To remove any foods
that have been cooked onto the bottom of the pot, simply soak overnight in soapy water and rinse the next
day.
- The exterior of the slow cooker can be wiped with a damp cloth and dried.
DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaner or scouring pad to clean any part of the slow cooker as
this will damage the surface.
