Learning to Cook with a Slow Cooker
By Addie
Slow cooking is becoming increasingly popular, and the reason is no surprise
- Whether you consider yourself a slow cooker novice or have some experience cooking with a slow cooker, there are a few things you should know about this method of cooking:
- If you are not familiar with using a slow cooker, experiment with different cooking times and settings. Getting the results you desire from your slow cooker takes a little practice and the more you use it, the better results you’ll get.
- A slow cooker is great for foods that are not naturally tender, such as meat with a lot of connective tissue. These are the least-expensive cuts but also the most flavorful.
- to you lift the lid during cooking, your cooking time will increase due to heat loss. Unless your recipe specifically calls for stirring, resist lifting the lid.
- Always completely thaw frozen meat before placing in slow cooker.
- Test Kitchen Tip: Evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and processed cheese are better choices than fresh dairy products for use in slow cooker recipes.
