Beginner’s Guide to Slow Cooking
In years gone by, food cooked in
large pots and allowed to simmer for
hours was full of flavour, moist and
tender. The Kambrook Stainless Steel
Slow Cooker is designed to produce
these same results, whilst leaving you
the time to do other things, making it
perfect for today’s busy lifestyles.
Here is a guide to help simplify the
process of slow cooking, allowing
you to obtain maximum satisfaction
from your Kambrook Stainless Steel
Slow Cooker.
Timing
Always allow sufficient time for the
food to cook. It is almost impossible to
overcook in the Kambrook Stainless
Steel Slow Cooker particularly when
using the Low Setting.
Most of the recipes contained within
this book can be cooked on the High
or Low setting, however the cooking
times will vary accordingly. Each
recipe will give specific instructions
indicating the appropriate settings
and suggested cooking times.
Adapting Cooking Times
Your favourite traditional recipes
can be adapted easily by halving
the amount of liquid and increasing
the cooking time considerably. The
following is a guide to adjusting your
favourite recipes.
