STIR TOWER ACCESSORY
With the Stir Tower, the Multi-Cooker becomes your full service
kitchen assistant and extra set of hands. Let it stir while you prep
and take care of other kitchen tasks. A specially-designed silicone
flip-and-stir paddle and scraping blade keep food circulating, allowing
for even heating and consistent mixing, all at the touch of a switch.
Available in a suite of colors to match your Multi-Cooker, the Stir
Tower connects directly to the Multi-Cooker—no separate cords to
get in the way!
For recipes featuring the special mixing and stirring
talentsof the Stir Tower, look for this icon in the
Multi-Cooker cookbook.
