101 Things To Do With A Slow Cooker - Janet Eyring
Helpful Hints
1. To make clean-up easier, spray the inside of slow cooker stoneware with non-stick cooking spray before adding ingredients.
2. To test the cooking temperature of a slow cooker, fill it 3/4 full of water, cover, and turn on high heat for 4 hours. With an instant heat thermometer, test water temperature immediately after lid is removed. Temperature should be at least 180 degrees. If the temperature is lower, we recommend replacing the slow cooker. If it is higher, check all recipes for doneness after 3 hours of cooking time.
3.As a general rule, lifting the lid off the slow cooker lengthens the cooking time by 30 minutes to an hour.
4. Stirring is generally not necessary until time to serve.
5. Your slow cooker should be at least 1/2 full to ensure proper cooking.
6. Recipes that contain raw poultry or beef should cook a minimum of 3 hours on high heat. Combinations of raw meat and fresh vegetables should cook at least 4 hours on high heat.
7. Adapting favorite oven recipes to a slow cooker:
8. One hour on high heat is equal to 2 1/2 hours on low heat. (High heat= 275–300 degrees; low heat–200 degrees. Heat varies from brand to brand.)
9. If your stoneware is removable, never place it on a stovetop burner.
10. At clean-up, cool the stoneware liner somewhat before adding water: this will prevent cracking.
11. Ground beef should be browned and drained before adding to slow cooker.
12. Fresh milk, cream, sour cream, and cream cheese should be added during the last hour of cooking to prevent curdling. Evaporated milk does not curdle and can be substituted for fresh milk in most recipes.
13. Long-grain converted rice is recommended for rice dishes.
14. Root vegetables (onions, carrots, potatoes, turnips) take longer to cook than meat. Place vegetables on bottom and around sides of slow cooker so they get the most direct heat.
15. Tough, inexpensive meat cuts work well. The moist, gentle heat slowly tenderizes these cuts as they cook.
16. Don't add more liquid than a recipe calls for, as liquid is retained.
17. If there's too much liquid at the end of cooking time and you want to thicken it, stir in some instant mashed potato flakes, instant tapioca, flour, or cornstarch.
18. If you start with a frozen cut of meat, add 2 hours to your cooking time on high heat or 4–6 hours on low heat.
19. For recipes that call for minced garlic, prepared jarred garlic may be substituted.
20. Fresh chopped onion can be used in place of dried minced onion. One medium fresh onion equals 1/2 cup dried.
21. Recipes can be assembled and stored in the
