hours or until beans are tender. Soaking in

water, if desired, should be completed before boiling. Discard water

after soaking or boiling. 

• Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried

beans.

VEGETABLES

• Many vegetables benefit from slow cook times and low temperatures

and are able to develop their full flavor. They tend not to overcook in your

slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your stovetop.  

• When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place vegetables in

slow cooker before meat. Vegetables usually cook slower than meat in

the slow cooker.

• Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to facilitate

cooking. Stir in chopped or sliced vegetables with other ingredients.  

• Because eggplant has a very strong flavor, you should parboil or sauté the

eggplant before adding it to the slow cooker.

LIQUIDS

• It is not necessary to use more than 

1

/

2

to 1 cup liquid in most instances

since juices in meats and vegetables are retained more in slow cooking

than in conventional cooking.  When converting conventional cooking

recipes to slow cooking recipes, use about half of the recommended

amount of liquids, except for in recipes that contain rice or pasta (refer

to PASTA AND RICE).

MILK

• Milk, cream, and sour cream break down during extended cooking.

When possible, add during last 15 to 30 minutes of cooking. 

• Condensed soups may be substituted for milk and can cook for

extended times.

SOUPS

• Some soup recipes call for 2 to 3 quarts of water. Add other soup

ingredients to the slow cooker first; then add water only to cover. If

thinner soup is desired, add more hot liquid at serving time. 

• If milk-based soup recipes have no other liquid for initial cooking, add

1 or 2 cups water. Since milk, cream or sour cream will break down if

heated above boiling point, carefully stir them in at end of cooking

cycle.

MEATS

• For meats, trim fats, wipe or rinse well, and pat dry with paper towels.

Browning meat in a separate skillet or broiler allows fat to be drained

off before slow cooking and also adds greater depth of flavor to dish.  

• Larger roasts, chickens, and hams are the perfect size for your slow

cooker. Select boneless roasts or hams ranging from 2 to 4 pounds for

a 4-quart slow cooker, 2.5 to 5 pounds for a 5-quart slow cooker, and

3 to 6 pounds for a 6-quart slow cooker. 

• Bone-in cuts like ribs, loin cuts, or turkey pieces fit easily and cook well

in your slow cooker. Cook turkey legs, thighs, and breasts, up to 4

pounds for 4-quart slow cookers, 5 pounds for 5-quart slow cookers,

and 6 pounds for 6-quart slow cookers.

• If you select a smaller roast, alter the amount of vegetables or potatoes

so that the stoneware is

to

full.

• Always remember, the size of the meat and the recommended cook

time are just estimates. The exact weight of a roast that can be cooked

in the slow cooker will depend upon the specific cut, meat

configuration, and bone structure. 

• Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked beans, fruit,

or lighter vegetables such as mushrooms, diced onion, eggplant, or finely

minced vegetables.  This will enable food to cook at the same rate.
