• Spray the crock with non-stick vegetable spray before filling. Clean-up will be a snap!
• For best results, fill the slow cooker about 1/2 to 3/4 full of ingredients.
• Little or no added liquid is needed...just add what the recipe calls for. There’s no evaporation, so all of the tasty juices stay right in the crock.
• Don’t peek! Cooking time can increase by 15 to 20 minutes every time the lid is lifted.
• Toward the end of cooking time, taste and adjust seasonings. The flavor of herbs tends to grow milder with long cooking, so you may want to add a little more.
• At high altitude, slow cooking will take a little longer. Add an extra 30 minutes of cooking time to each hour in a recipe.
