Slow cookers: model selection, features, reviews

Girls, what a recipe, everything that was lying around at home and then threw it away And in time, look above, I described everything and the list of products is also there, proportions by eye The beans were assorted, they say some kind of byaka in red, and it is boiled in the first water, because I boil for 10 minutes on the stove and drain the red water. I haven't eaten yet, just arrived, I'll tell you how it tastes ... but in the morning I poked it with a fork like it was delicious.
The onion didn't crunch .. maybe it didn't hit my fork

Ps. the meatballs were frozen, a handful of eggplant and a handful of green beans from the freezer.

Two friends are talking:
- Imagine, the sea brother is terribly lazy and, in order not to wash the dishes, puts disposable bags on the plates, eats, then throws the bags away!
- Listen, he's a genius !!!!
wandering through the amazon. com found this, as I translated for myself, "Pan (form) rescuer"

🔗

yes, definitely a genius!

I get along on these import sites and am amazed at how many people have invented

So you can use our baking sleeves

Yes, well, girls! There are bags of ... The most relish that the saucepan is ceramic, what a thrill ...: :) Sincerely ...

how easy it is to clean

As the saying goes, "it's a completely different story."

I realized that these bags and films are used not only in MdV, but also in braziers, ordinary pots

Hairpin, please answer. I think you have a multi-hunter. And you can compare a strong mode on a slow cooker with languishing on a hotter, and a weak mode with heating on a hotter - there is 40 degrees according to the instructions. And use the slow cooker recipes in the hotter. Your opinion as an expert and owner. Girls, maybe someone else will answer if there is such an experience.

I haven’t tried it myself, but I think the comparison is correct ... Only the Yearning in MX, it seems to me, is a little stronger than the High mode in MV. Only on MultiHotter, not Heating, but Marmite ... if I am not entangled in my pans (I am sitting at work, I cannot look).

And use the slow cooker recipes in the hotter.

Once upon a time, I had recipes for devices. Well, for a multicooker, a pressure cooker, a slow cooker, a multi-hotter, and then ... I realized that the recipes themselves are suitable for all devices (well, without cockroaches ... you still can't cook chocolate in a meat grinder). The price of the issue is modes and time. But we rarely have exactly the same weight as in the recipe ... Well, now my recipes are not broken down by device. And I determine the modes and time by eye ...

Although I have only one slow cooker and a cartoon in perspective, I also realized that no special recipes are needed for it, take the most common ones, taking into account that it will languish for a long time and slowly.

Essssssssssss (but recipes for baking still won't roll ...).

well, yes, although Admin (it seems) laid out the recipe for gingerbread in the summer, in a slow cooker.

Thank you girls for the answer, it became clear. I simmer meat in a hotter for 4 hours, and after reading with you, I want it for the night and buy-bye. I have a hotter in German and, it seems, they call 40 degrees a heating WARM HALTEN. So I decided that my heating is your 8-hour mode and you can cook on it. I'll try.

Here I am, too. For the second year now I have been shouting that the slowest cookware is the slow cooker. Because your own time does not take.

+1 yeah!

Why, when I read your posts in this vein, then I immediately have the thought that you need a self-assembled tablecloth, clapped his hands and a mustache is on the table, you don't know why?

[Gaby]

This is because I am a RATIONALIZER !!!

GabyGuess what Japan and me have in common?

And this ... where are the self-assembled tablecloths? Looks like I missed something again ...

And this ... where are the self-assembled tablecloths? Looks like I missed something again ...

They are found in Russian folk tales.

[Gypsy]

Ah, I understood ... Again Gypsy I found it on the Internet, I put it up, but I forgot where and how much they are sold ... It is strange that she didn’t put a video with moving in a mortar to us ... With our traffic jams, it’s very important !!!

Hairpin, for which I love you.

Gaby, our Hairpin doesn't need self-assembly. A Hairpin is not a Hairpin if it will not be able to wedge itself into the cooking process. Moreover, this opportunity may not be used, but it should be!

By the way, "samobranka" is not scolding from the word?

By the way, "samobranka" is not scolding from the word?

I think not, but from the phrase self-assembles (on the table).

I have a small MVA covering ... The plastic assembly with the switch is broken. I'm still trying to restore it with cyanopane, but some areas are just crumbled. And the handle on the lid also fell off ...

I forget to say that the last time I saw Morphy Richards slow cookers in various sizes was at the kiosk that Hotter sells on Petrovka.

I can imagine how much they cost there ...

[natamylove]

Girls, I'm now choosing a double boiler, and, by chance, in search of information, I went to the site where, in the name of the recipes, the style caught my eye natamylove ... Right here, at the bottom of the page 🔗 ... Fine? I read it, and I see that these are like Natalia's recipes, only there is no reference to the fact that it was she who wrote and cooked.

Anya! Where is this?
Roast (goose + potatoes + quince)
Goat leg with rosemary and honey
Duck stuffed with lemons

Yes, Ira. These.

I barely found it, the search did not give out, these are definitely recipes from Natamailav.

Girls, I've already seen this site

people use the photo

Girls, I've already seen this site

Natashik! This is glory! Let them choke!

people use the photo

Clearly, then you know, but about the photo, I already thought that it was on purpose, so that they could not present anything to them, and on the other hand, your recipes are served as something special that can be cooked in a slow cooker, this is somehow flattering, but that's all they are radishes.

that otozh, it is already the most pleasant

[traditional dishes]

please note recipes are served as traditional dishes.

, yeah, the traditional ones invented everything

the most interesting recipe is stuffed cabbage
I accidentally cooked it on heating and it turned out well in my model,
but it was an experiment, an accident, a mistake.

In another model, the tempo may differ and the cabbage rolls may be raw.

And the man stupidly copied.

If only I could have pogiatic at least changed a few words.
And then goose + quince +

pluses left

that let ...

I have been living on the forum for a week now, I read about different devices, because I realized that something in this life should make my existence easier ...I was choosing what kind of helper to shelter and finally realized that the slow cooker is exactly IT! And now a few questions arose for users:
Is it possible to fry something in the unit? And when baking meat in one piece, do you need water, or can you do without it? I was just reading the manual for the "samovar" and came across the following points:

• If you need to blanch or fry food before cooking, do so in a skillet. Do not try to blanch or fry food in a Dolvokilka.
• All food should be covered with liquid, gravy, or sauce. Prepare liquid, gravy, or sauce in a separate bowl and pour food completely into the ceramic bowl.
• To preserve the juiciness of meat and onions, pre-fry them in a pan.

So, before the last important step, I still wanted to figure out for myself whether these rules are categorical and what are the reasons (maybe the cup does not stand up or something else) ...

[Nettle]

Nettle, everything is very simple. The slow cooker is a heavy-walled ceramic pan. Maybe something could be fried in it, but imagine how long it will take for the saucepan to reach the desired temperature. Plus, when trying to fry, a sharp temperature drop is simply possible, and this is fraught - the saucepan can burst elementarily. In general, in a slow cooker, such a high temperature is simply not assumed and the power of the heating element will not be enough.

As for pouring, you may not completely fill in if the product being prepared is juicy enough to add liquid.

You just need to pre-fry the meat so that it is covered with a crust on top - this retains moisture inside the piece during further cooking.

Well, I'll add a few words.
Sometimes I cook very little in a slow cooker, even the bottom is not covered - then the juice does not come out, that is, the bottom is in places without anything.
For all the time, I didn’t fry anything before putting it in the slow cooker - lazy.

Girls, we now have a hit in our family - cream of pearl barley soup with milk. I bought a book of recipes for a double boiler, there is a similar recipe, I changed it to our taste, cooked it in a slow cooker, and now we overeat. This despite the fact that the husband does not like barley.

[Qween]

Qween

I wonder if this cream soup can be a recipe.?

NETTLE
and my few words

Frying will not work in a slow cooker, I often lay meat in just a piece and not a drop of water, super !!!!

I add water, if I cook with potatoes, 200 ml, no more.

Sometimes, I fry before I slow cook the meat, just for beauty, for the crust.

In general, look at all the recipes for a slow cooker on our forum, take the time, and you will understand its capabilities.

SLOW BOILER RECIPES

Here I am about the same:
Qween,
soup recipe - in the studio!
In the corresponding section, esssessno.

Yes, I cook homemade sausage in Nusya gut only in a slow cooker.
First, the lard is melted, and then the sausage is fried in this fat, as it were, for 4 hours.

What, girls, do you like barley?
Now then I'll roll the recipe.

Yes, I cook homemade sausage in Nusya gut only in a slow cooker.
First, lard is melted, and then the sausage in this fat, as it were, itself is fried for 4 hours.

rusja, we also bought kishechek, so more about sausage, if possible.

Exactly, as for cooking in a slow cooker.

How to contact Nusya? she was missing something.

Natasha, I contacted Nusya via a PM here on the forum.
Luysia, but with regard to sausages, everything is simple, I make them in rings, twist them so that there is not one big sausage and put them in a slow cooker with such rings. When there are many, then they lie one on top of the other, I turn on the strong mode and they gradually begin to languish, the fat is melted and they boil in this fat, by the end they become rosy. Maybe not the same as from the oven, but less fat is melted and does not burn.
Then they are kept in this lard, as in the original Ukrainian cuisine.

Thanks everyone for the clarification. Very soon I will join your ranks of "happy owners of" samovars ".

rusja, thanks!

Girls, I wrote a recipe for pearl barley, but Radical doesn't want to work. I have a photo, and I'll upload it later.
