The die-cast removable cooking bowl and glass lid are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and can even be used
in your oven. You can also store the cooking bowl in your refrigerator or freezer. The cooking bowl can then be placed
directly into the heating base straight from the refrigerator (always allow any frozen foods to fully defrost before cooking).
This versatility allows you to prepare foods, slow cook, store leftovers and reheat them using the same cooking bowl.
