SLOW COOKING THE BENEFITS OF SLOW COOKING • Health: The gentle cooking action reduces damage to vitamins and retains more of the nutrients and flavours. • Economy: Long, slow cooking can tenderise the cheaper, tougher cuts of meat, and uses about a quarter of the power of the small ring on the average hob.
COOKING GUIDELINES Vegetables Slow cooking is ideal for vegetables. There’s little evaporation, so all the juices and flavours are retained. Root vegetables like potato, carrot, turnip, and swede, need more slow cooking time than meat. Cut them into bite-size pieces and immerse in the cooking liquid. Place the vegetables as close to the bottom of the pot as possible.

STEAM Fill the cooking pot with water to a depth of approx. 2 - 2.5 cm. This will give you approx. 30 minutes of steaming. Don’t add too much water otherwise the ingredients will be submerged. Place the rack into the cooking pot (fig. C). Add ingredients such as fresh vegetables cut to a uniform size to the cooking pot and cover with glass lid.
