• The ceramic pot should be ½ lled at least half way with ingredients.
• In order to reduce liquid, remove the lid at the end of the cooking time and turn the
cooking level switch to HIGH. Then, allow the dish to continue cooking for another 30
to 45 minutes.
• If you brie¾ y remove the lid during the cooking process, you will extend the cooking
time by 10 minutes each time.
• With dishes that have a large amount of liquid, do not ½ ll the ceramic pot up to the
edge of the lid. For simmering, there must be some space between the lid and the dish.
• If you prepare ingredients on the day before, do not store these in the ceramic pot.
Place the ingredients in a separate container in the refrigerator.
Do not keep any raw food in the ceramic pot at room
temperature.
• For several types of food, the cooking time is too long. Pasta, seafood, milk and
ingredients for ½ nishing off (crème fraîche) need to be added at the end of the cooking
process, as they otherwise overcook.
• Root vegetables generally need longer than meat – basically place ingredients that
need longer to cook in the bottom of the ceramic pot.
• Larger pieces of meat or poultry should preferably be placed in the bottom section of
the ceramic pot and covered with liquid.
• Separate fat from meat before cooking the meat.
• With conventional dishes, which you intend to cook in the slow cooker, the amount of
liquid must be reduced, as only a small amount of liquid evaporates during the cooking
process.
• Red beans must be cooked conventionally for 10 minutes, before being cooked with
new water in the slow cooker.
Care instructions for the ceramic pot
