Removing Cover, Bowls, and Crock
When removing the cover, tilt so that the opening faces away from you to avoid being burned by steam.
The sides of the base of the slow cooker get very warm because the heating elements are located here. Use the handles on the base
if necessary. Use oven mitts to remove the bowls and the crock.
Double Dish Bowls
The Double Dish Bowls offer two different cooking methods: the conventional slow cook method or the faster, “bowls in the crock” method, as well as letting you cook two different recipes at the same time
Using the Double Dish Bowls with water in the crock works like a conventional slow cooker. However, cooking with the Double Dish Bowls in the base is very different. This is a much faster cooking method and nothing like the conventional slow cooker. This faster method should be used when time is a factor or with recipes such as soups or stews.
