An Introduction to Slow Cooking

Slow cooking is one of the best ways of preparing foods to ensure that the flavour and tenderness is retained. Your new Crock- Pot® slow cooker is easy to use and is extremely versatile. You can cook soups, stews, casseroles, roasts, bake cakes and even steam puddings.

Slow cooking is also economical, as your new Crock-Pot®slow cooker uses very little power. Once the slow cooker reaches the selected temperature, the food cooks using the heat retained in the crock insert.

Your slow cooker is ideal for cooking tougher cuts of meat as the slow, moist heat tenderises the meat and enhances the flavours.

Your slow cooker is also very safe for keeping foods heated, as it operates at temperatures high enough to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.

Using your Crock-Pot®Slow Cooker

1.Before using your Sunbeam slow cooker for the first time, remove the crock insert and lid and wash them in warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly and replace.

2.Place the slow cooker on a flat level surface.

3.Prepare the food to be cooked and place inside the slow cooker. Replace the lid. Note: Do not place very cold or frozen food in the crock insert if it has been pre- heated.

4.Insert the plug into a 230-240V power outlet and turn the power ON.

5.Select the desired setting on the temperature control dial: LOW, HIGH, or KEEP WARM. The power on light will illuminate to indicate that the appliance is switched on.
