SLOW COOKING: A HEALTHY TWIST ON AN OLD FAVORITE
Enjoying the Benefits of Slow Cooking
Understanding How Slow Cookers Work
Getting the Best from Your Slow Cooker
TEMPERATURE
Modern cookers have low, high, and warm heat settings. Most cookers
set to low heat reach temperatures ranging from 185°F to 200°F,
depending on the individual cooker; on high, they reach
temperatures between 250°F and 300°F. In actual practice, the
internal temperature of different cookers can vary quite a lot from
brand to brand; the age of the cooker also can make a significant
difference because new models are made to reach higher
temperatures than most older ones. (See this page for information on
how to test the cooking temperature of your slow cooker so you’ll
know how to best estimate accurate cooking times.) For most recipes
in this book, we’ve provided you the option of cooking on either low
or high. Since the low setting can often take up to double the time to
cook as the high setting, these options give you choices that work with
your schedule. When the recipe calls for only one setting, then the
alternate temperature is not recommended for that particular recipe.
SIZE
Today’s slow cookers come in several different sizes, each of which has
its advantages. It’s important to use the right cooker for the recipe
you are preparing: The size of the cooker affects not only how much
food you can cook but also the timing of your recipe. For effective
cooking, the food should fill the crock enough to adequately cover
the heating coils embedded in the sides of the cooker. If the cooker is
too large, with a lot of empty space left, the food will cook too fast. If
the cooker is too small for the total ingredients of your recipe, the
crock will be too full and the food will not cook properly. If a recipe
in this book requires a specific size for best results, that is noted. Most
recipes, however, offer a range of recommended cooker sizes.
SHAPE
The shape of your cooker affects how the heat is distributed, as well as
what will fit comfortably in the crock itself. Round cookers are perfect
for casseroles, stews, and soups and for recipes cooked in round
baking pans. If you want to serve a whole fish, a large chicken or roast,
or a recipe that cooks in a longer pan, such as meat loaf or bread, you
need an oval cooker long enough to accommodate the food or the
pan. When it is important to use a particular shape, it will be
indicated in the recipe.
Getting the Best from Your Slow Cooker
When slow cookers were first introduced, most recipes instructed the
cook to open a few cans, dump their contents into the crock, and
leave the food to cook for about 8 hours. Quick assembly and hands-
off cooking still will be your top priority sometimes, but when you put
in a little extra effort, your slow cooker will amply reward you.
• Make the cooker work with your schedule. Try prepping a recipe the
night before you plan to cook the food. Cover and refrigerate the
prepped food in separate airtight containers overnight, fill the crock
in the morning, and turn on the heat and, if your cooker has one, the
timer.
• Prep foods so they will cook the most efficiently and evenly. For
example, take care to cut carrots into pieces of the same approximate
size so all the carrots in the dish will be done at the same time.
• Choose the correct size of cooker for the recipe you are preparing,
and don’t be tempted to substitute sizes. Different sizes make big
differences in timing. Ideally, the cooker will be between one-half and
two-thirds full of ingredients when you start the cooking process. For
best results, use the size guidelines provided in the recipe.
• Resist the urge to stir or sneak a peek. Open the lid only when the
recipe directs you to, complete the necessary actions, such as adding
ingredients, and re-cover the cooker quickly. Every time you break the
seal between the cover and the crock, you lose a lot of heat.
• Follow the recipe directions for how to arrange ingredients in the
crock. Placement order and layering can make a big difference in
timing and outcome. In general, for recipes that combine meat and
vegetables, you’ll place fibrous root vegetables at the bottom of the
• Sleep could be the key to unlocking a healthier you. Amount and
quality of sleep can influence your eating habits, mood, memory, and
more.
• Proper rest allows you to recharge your batteries, so that you’re less
likely to crave sugary, fatty foods that provide quick energy.
• How much rest you need is personal, but many people require
about seven to nine hours of quality sleep each night.
• Be more active, limit caffeine (especially before bed), and establish
a bedtime routine to get on track to better sleep.

Tosi on, ettei Snellman, joka tietysti yksinään sai kantaa koko
kuorman, eikä juuri pyytänytkään sitä latoa toisten hartioille, varsin
suopeasti kohdellut noita tuollaisia neuvon antajia, kun ne
tunkeutuivat suoraan hänen puheillensa. Niinpä tapahtui, että eräs
senaattori ja eräs kuvernööri lähtivät hänen puheillensa,
ilmoittamaan sitä hänelle tietysti varsin tuntematonta tosiasiaa, että
Turun läänin pohjois-osassakin oli kova nälänhätä. Mitä tällä
käynnillä tapahtui tuli yleisölle tunnetuksi ainoastaan näiden herrojen
kertomuksista. Siitä olivat molemmat yksimielisiä, että Snellman
"haukkui" heitä pahemmin kuin jos he vielä olisivat olleet hänen
oppilaina lyseossa, mutta erimielisiä olivat ainoastaan siitä,
kumpaako heistä pahemmin "haukuttiin". Mitä parempaa todistusta
tarvittiinkaan siihen, että "viisaat miehet vetivät vanhurskasten unta
leveillä vuoteillaan".
Ei ole ainoastaan tyhjä lause tuo: "muuta apua ei ole. Sillä muuta
ei ole."
