COOKING GUIDELINES
SLOW COOKING
Slow cooking is perfect for foods that require long, slow simmering, such as soups, stocks,
stews, and dried beans. Slow cooking is also ideal for tougher and less expensive cuts of
meat like shoulder and pot roast.
The Simmer and Low settings are usually used for recipes that cook longer. When starting a
dish later in the day, select the High setting to ensure that food is cooked, warm, and ready
when you’d like to eat.
To reheat foods, use Brown/Sauté at 175°C and stir until all ingredients are warmed through.
Then switch to Slow Cook/Warm until ready to serve.
