• To thicken juices or make gravy at the end of the cooking cycle, make
a smooth mixture of 2 to 4 tbsps. (30 – 60 ml) of cornstarch, 1/4 cup
(60 ml) of water, and 2 tbsp. (30 ml) of butter. Remove cooked food
from Casserole. Add the mixture to the juices remaining in the Casserole,
set to High and stir until liquid thickens.
• Do not worry if the food remains in the Slow Cooker longer than
planned. The Slow Cooker cooks very slowly and will be very
forgiving if you are running a little late.
