Cleaning Your Crockery Cooker

•Allow the entire unit (base, cooking pot and cover) to cool before cleaning. Set cooking pot and cover on dry, heat-protective surface for gradual cooling. Do not run cold water over hot cooking pot or cover, as they may crack if cooled suddenly.

1.Wipe heating base and cord with a damp cloth after it has been unplugged and the base is cool.

2.Cooking pot and cover may be washed using hot soapy water by hand or cleaned in the dishwasher. Avoid contact between pieces to prevent damage.

3.Use a non-abrasive cleanser or baking soda paste to remove stains. Do not use metal scouring pads or cleansers. Wipe with distilled vinegar to remove water spots or mineral deposits. Rewash with hot soapy water, rinse and dry.

Crockery Cooking Tips

•Stir foods occasionally to reduce sticking to sides of cooking pot.

•Use only plastic, rubber, wooden or non-metal cooking tools with cooking pot. Use of metal cooking tools may scratch the ceramic pot.

•Foods will be brought to a simmer at all cooking settings. The setting determines the time needed to reach a simmer.

•If the cooking pot is filled less then half full, suggested cooking times should be reduced.

•Less tender, less expensive cuts of meat are better suited to slow cooking then expensive cuts of meat. Remove excess fat from meat when possible before slow cooking. Remove skin from poultry, if desired, before cooking.

•Raw vegetables take longer to cook than meats as the liquid simmers rather than boils. Cut vegetables into uniform, bite-size pieces to cook evenly.

•You may fill the cooking pot with food the night before cooking and refrigerate. When ready, place cooking pot into the heating base and cook. The gradual warming will not harm the cooking pot.

•Insert a meat thermometer into roast, hams or whole chickens to ensure meats are cooked to recommended temperature. Fresh or thawed fish and seafood fall apart during long hours of cooking. Add these ingredients an hour before serving.

•Milk, sour cream and natural cheese break down during long hours of cooking. Add these ingredients just before serving or substitute with undiluted condensed creamed canned soups or evaporated milk. Processed cheese tends to give better results than naturally aged cheese.

•Rice and pasta may be added uncooked during the last hour of cooking time. If added uncooked, make sure there are at least two cups of liquid in the cooking pot. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
