connective tissue and fat such as brisket or pork shoulder. Cooking meat on the bone versus boneless will increase
required cook times.
•
Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such as beans, or light vegetables such as
mushrooms, diced onion, aubergine, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at the same rate.
FISH:
•
Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle during the last fifteen minutes to one hour of
cooking.
LIQUID:
•
It might appear that slow cooker recipes only have a small quantity of liquid in them but the slow cooking process
differs from other cooking methods in that the added liquid in the recipe will almost double during the cooking time. If
you are adapting a recipe for your slow cooker from a conventional recipe, please reduce the amount of liquid before
cooking.
ALWAYS unplug your slow cooker from the electrical outlet, and allow it to cool before cleaning.
CAUTION: Never immerse the heating base, power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
•
The lid and stoneware can be washed in the dishwasher or with hot, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning
compounds or scouring pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove residue. To remove water spots
and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar.
•
As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware and lid will not withstand sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the
stoneware or lid with cold water when they are hot.
•
The outside of the heating base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use
abrasive cleaners.
•
No other servicing should be performed.
•
Note: After cleaning allow the stoneware to air dry before storing.
