BROWninG The rst step is still browning the
meat or poultry, usually followed by cooking the
onion, garlic and other avouring elements. This
usually happens in a Dutch oven or large skillet.
POSiTiOn Placing ingredients in the slow cooker
may be slightly different. Because root vegetables
take longer to cook through in a slow cooker, cutthem into pieces no larger that 1 inch (2.5 cm)
and place them in the slow cooker rst, under meat
or poultry.
SETTinG Choose low setting for most recipes. High
heat tends to toughen meat and poultry and make
them stringy.
Liquid Unlike cooking on top of the stove or in
the oven, theres no place for the liquid to
evaporate. Most recipes will require about 50 per
cent less liquid in a slow cooker. However, if afteradjusting the recipe you nd you do have too much
liquid at the end of cooking time, skim fat off
surface and strain liquid into a large shallow
saucepan. Boil hard until liquid reaches desired
consistency and avour. Thickening agents, such
as our and cornstarch, are always added near the
end of cooking.
inGREdiEnTS Flavours of herbs and spices fade in
a slow cooker. Add an extra little sprinkle to spark
up the dish just before serving. This is especially
important with fresh herbs. As well, add green
pepper near the end of cooking because it becomes
bitter. To prevent dairy products from separating,
add them only near the end of cooking.
