Using the Temperature Control Settings
LOW Setting
The LOW setting gently simmers
food for an extended period of time
without overcooking or burning.
Generally no stirring is required when
using this setting.
HIGH Setting
The HIGH setting is ideal 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 the
flavour distribution.
KEEP WARM Setting
The KEEP WARM setting is used to keep
cooked foods at serving temperature.
It is not a cooking setting and should
only be used after first cooking on
the LOW or HIGH setting. It is not
recommended to keep food on the
KEEP WARM setting for more than
4 hours.
Slow cooking involves simmering food
for long periods of time to ensure the
food is moist, tender and full of flavour.
Depending on the ingredients and
temperature setting, slow cooking
can take between 2 - 12 hours.
Here is a guide to help simplify the
process of slow cooking, helping you
to achieve delicious results everytime.
Timing
Always allow sufficient time for the
food to cook. Depending on the
size, type and temperature of the
ingredients, creating a slow cooked
meal can take between 2 - 12 hours.
Most of the recipes in this instruction
booklet can be cooked on the HIGH
or LOW setting, however the cooking
times will vary accordingly. Each
recipe will give specific instructions
indicating the appropriate settings
and suggested cooking times.
Adapting Cooking Times
Your favourite traditional recipes can
be adapted easily by halving the
amount of liquid and increasing the
cooking time considerably. The below
table is a guide to adjusting your
favourite recipes.
NOTE:
High humidity, altitude,
and the preparation and
temperature of ingredients may
affect the cooking times when
using the slow cooker.
NOTE:
These times are
approximate. Times can vary
depending on ingredients and
quantities in recipes.
