Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Crock Pot Cooking Tips * Allow sufficient cooking time on " low " setting. * Liquids don't boil away as in conventional cooking. Usually you'll have more liquid at the end of cooking instead of less. * Cook with cover on -- except to " brown off " liquids after cooking * It's " one-step " cooking: many steps in the recipes may be deleted. * Recipes that will not adapt well are those that require broiling or deep-frying. If you feel unsure about a step, go ahead and follow the recipe's directions as written. * Most uncooked meat and vegetable combinations will require at least 8 hours on low. Many recipes say, " Bring to boil, then turn down to simmer.” In a crock-pot, this is not necessary. Simply set the crock-pot to low and forget it. Crock-pot cooks so gently...so an extra hour on low need not worry you. Any recipe can be cooked on high the first two hours to reduce cooking time, and then turned to low. ===== *********** My Special Thought To You: There's A Blessin' In Pressin'....On The Upward Way!
