PASTA AND RICE
•
For best rice results, use long grain converted rice or
a specialty rice as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not
cooked completely after the suggested time, add an
extra 1 to 1½ cups of liquid per cup of cooked rice and
continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
•
For best pasta results, first partially cook the pasta in a
pot of boiling water until just tender. Add the pasta to
the Crock-Pot
cook time.
BEANS
•
Beans must be softened completely before combining
with sugar and/or acidic foods. Sugar and acid have a
hardening effect on beans and will prevent softening.
•
Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be
boiled before adding to a recipe.
•
Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute
for dried beans.
VEGETABLES
•
Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to
develop their full flavor. They tend not to overcook in your
slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your stovetop.
•
When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place
vegetables in slow cooker before meat. Vegetables
usually cook slower than meat in the slow cooker.
•
Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the
stoneware to facilitate cooking.
