SC460020 MUK Rev 1.qxp_Layout 1 27/03/2019 15:30 Page 7 Foods For Slow Cooking • Most foods are suited to slow cooking methods, however there are a few guidelines that need to be followed. • Ensure all frozen ingredients are thoroughly defrosted prior to cooking. • Cut root vegetables into small, even pieces, as they take longer to cook than meat. They can be gently sauteed for 2-3 minutes before slow cooking.
