Slow cookers: model selection, features, reviews

[kenwood cp 707]

Girls!
Hello everyone!
I bought my slow cooker kenwood cp 707, I searched for a very long time in online stores, in general my torment is over, there is a new one in the kitchen, I walk around her, I am happy, but I don’t know where to start ...

[Tanasha,]

Tanasha,
Start with baked milk - a win-win thing
Pour fresh cold milk into a saucepan and forget about it for 4-5 hours, depending on the displacement. When it acquires a beautiful creamy shade and caramel flavor, then it is ready. And then do what you want with it: drink it, cook the porridge (well, oooh delicious) or after cooling it to 40 degrees, pour in the leaven, better than homemade sour cream, at the rate of 200 gr. per liter and you will have RYAZHENKA.

Oh, girls, I'm somewhat confused. I decided to update the slow cooker with buckwheat and meat (and drown the milk in the evening). Well, I put it on the fast mode, it's been worth 3 hours and even the gurgles have not appeared, how is it? it does not bring to a boil at all? so after all nothing will cook and no microbes will be killed

[gypsies]

Oh, girls, I'm somewhat confused.

boil necessarily, in small bubbles. In the next. times, to save time, pour hot water into the pan. According to the precepts gypsies

Thank you for your support, I will wait. Now I will know about hot water. What can you do, newbie ...

[Thanasha]

Thanasha, 70 degrees will be enough to kill germs. Especially for the purpose of self-education, read what pasteurization is and under what modes it is carried out

I also cooked borscht for the first time, poured cold water over the vegetables, the cabbage was left with a crust in 5 hours. Now I just pour boiling water. And all the meat that I cook in the slow cooker I pre-boil for about five minutes (though I always did this before the slow cooker, so a large amount of harmful leaves the meat, there are all sorts of purines, plus there is no scale).

I also noticed that the first time five or six dishes in a slow cooker turned out to be less tasty than after. I don’t know why, but it’s absolutely certain that meat and soup, cabbage and compote have become tastier. The pan has "adapted" :-) I seem to be doing the same thing.

No, on the internet, but they didn't answer me ... now - I don't even remember - where I was carried ... I think I found it ... here ... 🔗

For some reason I thought there was a metal saucepan too.
I'm going to read the topic about DVA.

No, the whole point of MDV is that she, like a ceramic pot, keeps warm ... I am writing, well, I want her even more .... It's contagious, but ... it can't be treated

[matroskin_kot, Irish]

matroskin_kot, Irish, and I miss a small (3 l) MV. My brother has been promising to fix the case for a year now ... you see, it will be easier to catch an opportunity by the tail and buy ...

And how to understand this:
Slow Cooker Kenwood CP-658, Power: 320 W, Capacity: 6.5 L, Manual control with 3 settings :, cooking program for 4 hours, cooking program for 8 hours, heating mode, Stainless steel body, Glass lid, Non-slip base
That is, there is still a ceramic pot inside?
And Kenwood 707 and 658 differ only in the size of the bowl? But why, then, is the 4.5-liter 707 more expensive than the 6.5-liter 658?

Any slow cooker consists of a metal (all metal or only inside) body with a heater, a ceramic pot and a lid. The controls are either mechanical or electronic.
Kenwood has a large MV of a classic look (there are many of them, both Morphie Richards, and many little-known ones), and models 706 and 707 have an exclusive design, a white pot. 706 has mechanics, 707 has electronics.

Ludik, the one that is 4.5 liters, it is with electronic, not mechanical control ... Probably, that's why it is more expensive ...

Ir, both of them (706 and 707) are more expensive than 658. It's just that the big design has a standard one, apparently, it is assembled at the same factory that MP rivets other saucepans, and for 706-707 there is a separate line. At least, I have not seen other MVDs with such a design.

I have a white pot and a mechanical one, too, for 4.5 liters ... and my neighbor has the same but electronic one and costs much more

Leka, so that even such a small meat is enough for a jelly ??? And the neighbor, is she better? Or the same ???

I get 9 jelly pods (y) go to the recipes for slow cookers, I put jellied meat there. And the neighbor's just with a timer.

look here https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...=4286.0

Enlighten me plizz, what's the difference between mechanical and electronic controls?
Is it that in a mechanical handle you turn, and in an electronic button you press? Or are there other differences?

Is it that in a mechanical handle you turn, and in an electronic button you press? Or are there other differences?

Yes, practically, it is, I have 2 Kenwood slow cookers for 6.5 liters. and 4.5, both mechanical. I think that in a slow cooker, the main point of which is to languish for 4-8 hours, there is no sense in electronics.

[/ quote]: hi: I totally agree. I have 6.5 liters. Cabbage turns out very well, about 3 hours, I mix it once, 30 minutes before turning it off. Baked milk, jellied meat comes out very well! I don't like stewed potatoes. The main thing is that you can do other things.

Good evening everyone !!!!
I have been using the Kenwood CP-707 Slow Cooker for about 1.5 months. There is no limit to happiness, many thanks to all for this topic and recipes !!!!!!!!!! I didn’t decide for a long time whether I needed it or not. The family hissed for a long time about the upcoming purchase, and when they saw it in action, they respectfully calmed down! ;) The dishes are like in a restaurant !!
But I really need the timer, because I basically put it at night, and in the morning I can sleep the right time. For vegetables, overexposure is not desirable in my opinion, and overexposure of meat is not always good. And now we have a chill every 2 weeks, it is obligatory, stuffed lean peppers in it from meat ones cannot be distinguished by taste
In general, thank you all

And I bought a timer-socket and that's it. At least yogurt, at least jellied meat will turn off. And the light in the hen house in winter is also on a timer ...

: hi: What does the socket-timer look like?

[TYTS!]

: hi: What does the socket-timer look like?

TYTS!

Look in the departments of household appliances and in special electrical stores (cables, sockets, electricity meters, etc.).

Girls !!! I got this ... ... saucepan. Oooooyyy !!!!!!!
Firms Morphy Richards 48730, volume 6.5 Lt. Nuuuu how much I want her. Fuuuu.
Everything is nice, one nuance.
Here it is with a timer, but without a temperature controller.
Accordingly, a question arose - what is the temperature in it and in general how? ...
A? Does anyone know anything about this

Is there nothing in the instructions?
🔗

NO......

? ? ?

Only the time is set on the display.

Added: or maybe it is regulated by itself, such as one program and is distributed over the cooking time. How to organize heating? That is the question.

And this is from the Internet:
The Morphy Richards 48730 slow cooker (English brand, produced in Southeast Asia) costs a little less - about 2.5 thousand rubles. Power - 350 W. She also has a metal case. The volume of a ceramic pot (removable, dishwasher safe) is 6.5 liters. The lid, like the previous model, is transparent, made of high-strength glass. Control - electronic, there is a backlit display. There are several cooking modes (low intensity, medium, high intensity), food can be cooked (in fact, stewed) at temperatures from 76 ° C to 140 ° C. The maximum cooking time is 12 hours. There is a "Keep warm" function.The slow cooker (the manufacturer on the official website calls it "samovar") Morphy Richards 48730 has cool handles.

Citizens, I apologize for the expression.
After the first experience, I realized that heating is, after all, leaving the cooking dish in a saucepan, already without heating, that is, with MdV turned off. So you can warm up for another 10 hours. However, I will experiment with porridge. It should turn out well.

But if I knew about such a TIMER, I would buy Kenwood for the same 6.5 liters with a regulator (three positions). I feel that lohonulaya I'm just a little bit.

And we always wrote here that the slow cooker does not need a timer, but three modes are a necessary thing. The simpler the better

[Alexandra]

And so many people have already come to this jamb (it is with this Morphy model). Alexandra swooped down with a difference of several days. Moreover, I have already managed to report, and Alexandra did not have time to read ...

Natasha-Pusya! Your only mode is Hi mode ...

I think the next troubles will be too big ... Tea, we do not sculpt geese every day ...

Spiers, in large MdVs, can be cooked in separate tins in a water meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I still can't organize myself to scan and translate at least a couple of recipes a week from an import slow cooker book. They even have puddings and desserts.

[Rina]

Rina , for sure - I'm steaming porridge in pots in MV, 2 pots are included and you can have different porridge in each

: hi: Girls, did you make yogurt in a slow cooker? Not found in the recipes.

Come on, come on! And then my big MVD is idle.

Here, I dug up a photo

Rina, maybe you don't need to translate? what if it's the same as Kenwood and Morphirichards? And their recipes have already been laid out on the stove, there are links to Russian instructions. There are tons of recipes! and there are puddings

[Gypsy]

Gypsy, first of all - Shana Tova Umetuk! Happy New Year!!!
And secondly these links are HDE ???

Thank you too
Here, in Russian so 178 pages. 🔗

nooo ... there is an author's book. By the way, it is indicated that the information seems to be taken from morphirichardz, but this information is not in this Russian-language instruction. In general, I'll get to the translation, then we'll look.

Need advice.

this pan is not for baking - there is at most 80 g (everything else is ok) - you will continue to bake in the pressure cooker

In my slow cooker I only make cabbage and cook jellied meat.

[danuca]

danuca, NEVER. The main difference between a multicooker and a slow cooker is temperatures - in MedlVark it is 80 degrees. Do not bake. And for a long time.

this pan is not for baking - there is at most 80 g (everything else is ok) - you will continue to bake in the pressure cooker

The pressure cooker doesn't bake very well.
Only the pizza turns out well.
The upper message contains a description from the online store.
Ken 707
Here's another
When you open the front door on a cold winter evening, and smell the tempting smell of stewing meat or chicken soup coming from the Dolvarki, you realize that dinner dreams come true. ... Special mode "Slow-Braised Beef" at a temperature - from 76 C to 140 C. The low temperature and long cooking time allows using cheaper types of meat for stewing. Many Crock pot models have a ceramic interior and heating elements are located along the sides of the pan, so that the entire volume of food is heated. And two regulators - low and high. Slow cooker or multi-cooker models usually have heating elements at the bottom and are equipped with a thermostat with a fairly wide temperature range. However, even if your long cooker has a ceramic interior, it is necessary to stir the cooked food periodically to avoid burning. Each time you open the lid, add 20 minutes to the end of cooking time.
Happy Slow Cooker Owners 707

do not rush to give it up, not only excellent cereals, but everything else. And what kind of stuffed peppers, vegetables in general and broths in particular, are transparent and the meat is boiled, even ancient Porridge, if you put it in the night, it turns out on baked milk, if you don't like that, then you need to turn it off earlier.
