A BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO SAUTÉ AND SEAR
SAUTEING AND SEARING
BEFORE PRESSURE COOKING
& SLOW COOKING
Sautéing and Searing in the Fast Slow
Cooker may take a little extra time and
while not strictly necessary, the rewards
are evident in the end result.
Saute and Sear setting keeps the heat
stable, for browning meat and caramelizing
vegetables. This seals in the moisture,
tenderizes and intensifies the flavor.
Hint and Tips
• Trim all visible fat from meat or poultry.
• If a recipe calls for browning meat, it may
be browned using SAUTÉ/SEAR setting.
• If after cooking the liquid quantity is
excessive, remove the lid and operate
the Fast Slow Cooker on SAUTÉ/
SEAR setting for approximately 10–15
minutes or until the liquid reduces by
the desired amount.
