Gravy/ Sauce
Slow cooking retains more of the juices than normal cooking. This tends to increase the volume of
cooking liquid, and thin the sauce or gravy. To allow for this, sauces should initially be thicker than
normal. Anything to be sautéed could be tossed in seasoned flour beforehand, to thicken the
gravy/sauce.
VI. APROXIMATE COOKING TIMES
The cooking times stated in the chart below give an approximate guide. For slow cooker recipes,
techniques and specific cooking times consult a specialist recipe book. Browning meats before
they are added to the slow cooker can reduce cooking times.
