About slow cooking:
Slow cooking has always been the best way to prepare a nutritious hot meal with minimum preparation and maximum free time away from the kitchen.
Traditionally slow cooking has centered on soups and casseroles but with this oval crock pot you can also produce most modern family meals and dinner party dishes. The crock pot is convenient as well as attractive enough to take straight to the table for serving. Always place the crock pot on a trivet or heat proof surface.
This method of cooking is ideal for preparing tougher cuts of meat, giving them the long, gentle simmering that ensures that they become tender and full of flavor.
IMPORTANT: The slow cooker works by building up heat and maintaining an even temperature. To get the best cooking results, do not remove the lid during cooking, since this will lose heat and therefore slow down the cooking time. The glass lid allows you to monitor the cooking progress without interrupting the cooking time.
