SEARING AND BROwNING
BEFORE SLOw COOKING
Searing and browning in the EasySear™
Insert on the stovetop may take a little extra
time and whilst not strictly necessary, the
rewards are evident in the end result.
The EasySear™ Insert keeps the heat
stable and uniform allowing the meat
to brown and form an even crust. Plus
searing and browning seals in the moisture,
intensifies the flavor and provides more
tender results.
Once searing and browning is complete,
return the EasySear™ Insert to the
stainless steel housing with all the tasty
caramelized ingredients inside.
USING THE TEMPERATURE
CONTROL SETTINGS
This Slow Cooker has three settings: LOW,
HIGH and DUAL. Use the recommended
guidelines offered in the recipe to determine
cooking time and heat setting. Dishes can
be prepared well in advance of mealtime
and cooking time regulated so that food is
ready to serve at a convenient time.
It is almost impossible to overcook in the
Slow Cooker particularly when using the
LOW setting. A general rule of thumb for
most slow cooked meat and vegetable
recipes is:
LOW 6 to 10 hours
HIGH 3 to 4 hours
DUAL 4 to 6 hours
SETTING COOKING TIME
Your favorite traditional recipes can also be
easily adapted to this Slow Cooker. Simply
halve the amount of liquid and increase the
cooking time. The following is a guide to
adjusting your favorite recipes:
NOTE:
These times are approximate. Times
can vary depending on ingredients
and quantities in recipes.
NOTE:
High humidity, altitude, cold tap
water and ingredients may slightly
affect the cooking times in the Slow
Cooker.

LOw SETTING
The LOW setting gently simmers food
for an extended period of time without
overcooking or burning. No stirring is
required when using this setting.
HIGH SETTING
The HIGH setting is used when cooking
dried beans or pulses and will cook food in
half the time required for the LOW setting.
Some foods may boil when cooked on
the high setting, so it may be necessary to
add extra liquid. This will depend on the
recipe and the amount of time in which it is
cooked. Occasional stirring of stews and
casseroles will improve flavor distribution.
The HIGH setting in this Slow Cooker
cooks considerably faster than the DUAL
or LOW settings and can be used if time
is a constraint. Simply place your favorite
meal on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours and you will
have a slow cooked meal in a fraction of
the time.
DUAL SETTING
The DUAL setting will begin cooking on
HIGH and then will shift to LOW after
approximately 2 hours of cooking time for
added ease and simplicity.
ROASTING IN THE SLOw COOKER
Roasting meats in the Slow Cooker creates
tender, flavorsome results. The long, slow,
covered cooking process breaks down
and softens the connective and muscle
tissue within the meat, making it easier to
slice. Cheaper cuts of meat can be used
to provide perfect results cooked by this
method.
Meat will not brown during the Slow
Cooking process, so for browner results
sear in the EasySear™ Insert on the
stovetop first before placing back into the
stainless steel housing for cooking.
The addition of liquid is not required for
roasting. Elevate the meat to be cooked
on the provided stainless steel rack. This
will assist in keeping the surface of the
meat dry and free from any fat released
throughout the cooking process.
