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

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 vessel. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
