      Introduction

      ……………………………………………………………………………………………………

      I love using my slow cooker because, in addition to producing great-tasting food, a slow cooker is one of the most effective time-management tools any cook can have. Basically, it allows you to be in the kitchen when it suits your schedule. If you prefer, you can do most of the prep work in advance, when it’s most convenient for you, and once the appliance is turned on there is little or nothing left for you to do. The slow cooker performs unattended while you carry on with your workaday life. You can be away from the kitchen all day and return to a hot, delicious meal.

      Happy slow cooking,

      Judith Finlayson

      Using Your Slow Cooker

      ……………………………………………………………………………………………………

      Slow Cooker Basics

      A Low-Tech Appliance

      Slow cookers are amazingly low-tech. The appliance usually consists of a metal casing and a stoneware insert with a tight-fitting lid. For convenience, you should be able to remove the insert from the metal casing. This makes it easier to clean and increases its versatility, not only as a vessel for refrigerating dishes that have been prepared to the Make Ahead stage, but also as a serving dish. The casing contains the heat source, electrical coils that usually surround the stoneware insert. These coils do their work using the energy it takes to power a 100-watt light bulb. Because the slow cooker operates on such a small amount of electricity, you can safely leave it turned on while you are away from home.

      Shapes, Sizes and Configurations

      Slow cookers are generally round or oval in shape and range in size from 1 to 8.5 quarts. The small round ones are ideal for dips, as well as some soups, main courses and desserts. The smaller oval ones (approximately 1-1/2 to 4 quarts) are extremely versatile because they are small enough to work well with smaller quantities but also have enough volume to accommodate some full-batch recipes. The larger sizes (5 to 8.5 quarts), usually oval in shape, are necessary to cook big-batch dishes and those that need to be cooked in a dish or pan that can fit into the stoneware.

      I have recommended slow cooker sizes for all my recipes. However, please be aware that so many new models are coming onto the market that I have not been able to test all the configurations myself. Use your common sense. The stoneware should be about one-third to three-quarters full. Dishes that contain an abundance of vegetables and liquid will likely need a model that can accommodate greater volume.

      Some manufacturers sell a slow cooker that is actually a multi-cooker. These have a heating element at the bottom, and in my experience they cook faster than traditional slow cookers. Also, since the heat source is at the bottom, the food is likely to scorch unless it is stirred.

      Your slow cooker should come with a booklet that explains how to use the appliance. I recommend that you read this carefully and/or visit the manufacturer’s website for specific information on the model you purchased. There are now so many models, shapes and sizes of slow cookers on the market that it is impossible to give one-size-fits-all
