CONVERTING STANDARD RECIPES TO
SLOW COOKING
s
Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, turnips and beets require
longer cooking time than many meats. Be sure to place them on
the bottom of the Slow Cooker and cover them with liquid.
s
If adding fresh milk or yogurt, this should be done during
the last 2 hours. Evaporated milk may be added at the start
of cooking.
s
Rice, noodles and pasta are not recommended for long cooking
periods. Cook them separately and then add to the Slow Cooker
during the last 30 minutes.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
1. Before doing anything else, unplug the slow cooker from the wall
socket.
2. Using oven gloves, remove the lid and ceramic bowl and put them
on a heatproof surface
3. Even if you don’t intend to wash up right away, fill the ceramic bowl
with warm water, otherwise the residual heat may bake any food
debris on the ceramic bowl, making its eventual removal more
difficult.
4. Don’t soak the exterior of the ceramic bowl in water. The base is
porous and will soak up water which may cause it to crack when
heated. Wash the lid and ceramic bowl in hot soapy water, using a
cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Don’t use scouring
pads.
5. All other surfaces, internal and external, should be wiped with a
damp cloth. You may use a little mild household detergent (washing
up liquid) if necessary. These surfaces should be dry before re-using
the slow cooker and storing it away.
6. After some time in use, the glaze on the ceramic bowl may develop
‘crazing’, a network of small cracks. This marking is superficial, and
should not be a cause for concern.
