This element provides the low, even temperature that makes lengthy cooking times possible. As a result of the wrap-around element, food will not stick to the base of the ceramic pot despite the long cooking time and the need to stir food is almost unnecessary. As food cooks just below boiling point, verylittle steam is given off and there is next to no evaporation, all of which provides flavorful, tender and moist results, even with budget cuts of meat. LOW: The low heat setting gently simmers food for an extended period of time without overcooking or burning. No stirring is required when using this setting. Ideal for vegetable dishes and re-heating. HI: The high heat setting is used when baking or cooking dried beans and will cook food in half the time required for the low setting. as food willboil when cooked on the high setting. Occasional stirring of stews and casseroles will improve the flavor distribution, food should be monitored when using the high setting, just like cooking in a pot with the lid on. KEEP WARM: The keep warm setting is for holding the prepared recipe at a perfect serving temperature. This setting should only be used after a recipe has been thoroughly cooked. If food has been refrigerated, it must be heated on low or high and then switched to keep warm. WARNING: Do Not Cook on Keep Warm Setting. CAUTION: Be careful when adding additional liquids to ceramic pot - Neveradd cold liquids as this might cause the ceramic pot to crack. Always warm the liquids before adding. • Prepare recipe according to instructions. • Place prepared food into the removable ceramic pot and cover with the glass cover. • Plug the unit into an electrical outlet and switch to desired temperature setting (Low, High or Keep Warm) position.
