THE BENEFITS OF SLOW COOKING
health
The gentle cooking action reduces damage to vitamins and retains more
of the nutrients and flavours.
economy
Long, slow cooking can tenderise cheaper, tougher cuts of meat, and
uses about a quarter of the power of the small ring on the average hob.
convenience
Prepare the ingredients the night before, put them in the slow cooker in
the morning, before you leave for work, and have a delicious meal
waiting for you when you get home.
