HELPFUL HINTS FOR ADAPTING RECIPES
1. The Low setting is recommended for all day cooking. Most meat and vegeta-
ble combinations require at least 7 hours on Low.
2. For best flavour use whole leaf herbs and spice during the initial preparation.
If ground herbs and spices are used, stir in during the last hour of cooking.
3. The time required to cook is affected by many factors. The water and fat
content of the food, its starting temperature, and the size of the pieces will all
affect the cooking time. For example, meat cut into pieces will
cook faster than a whole roast. Adjust the time accordingly.
4. Recipes for vegetable casseroles must contain liquid to prevent scorching of
the sides of the Casserole.
5. You may choose to substitute ingredients in a recipe. For example, a 12 oz.
can of chicken broth could be replaced by a 10 oz. can of tomato soup and 2
CAUTION:
When removing the Lid, grasp the knob and slowly lift the side that is away
from you to allow the steam to escape before setting the Lid aside. To avoid
burns, always hold the Lid so that escaping steam flows away from your
hands, arms and face.
