About slow cooking
•Slow cooking has always been the best way to prepare a nutritious hot meal with minimum preparation and maximum free time away from the kitchen. Morphy Richards has brought this style of cooking right up to date with this modern, cooking system.
•Traditionally slow cooking has centred on soups and casseroles but with this oval ceramic crock pot you can also produce most modern family meals and dinner party dishes. This pot is convenient as well as looking good enough to take straight to the table for serving. (Always place the crock pot on a heat proof mat or surface).
•This method of cooking is ideal for preparing tougher cuts of meat, giving them the long, gentle simmering that ensures that they become tender and full of flavour.
IMPORTANT
The slow cooker works by building up heat and maintaining an even temperature. To get the best cooking results, do not remove the lid during cooking, since this will lose heat and therefore slow down the cooking time. The glass lid allows you to monitor the cooking progress without interrupting the cooking time.
Suitable foods for slow cooking
•Most foods are suited to slow cooking methods, however there are a few guidelines that need to be followed.
•Make sure all frozen ingredients are well thawed out.
•Cut root vegetables into small, even pieces, as they take longer to cook than meat. They should be gently sauted for 2-3 minutes before slow cooking. Ensure that root vegetables are always placed at the bottom of the pot and all ingredients are immersed in the cooking liquid.
•Trim all excess fat from meat before cooking, since the slow cooking method does not allow fat to evaporate.
•If adapting an existing recipe from conventional cooking, you may need to cut down on the amount of liquid used. Liquid will not evaporate from the slow cooker to the same extent as with conventional cooking.
•Never leave uncooked food at room temperature in the slow cooker.
•Do not use the slow cooker to reheat food.
•Uncooked red beans must be soaked and boiled for at least 10 minutes to remove toxins before use in a slow cooker.
•Insert a meat thermometer into joints of roasts, hams, or whole chickens to ensure they are cooked to the desired temperature.
