Slow cookers: model selection, features, reviews

[Mirabel]

Mirabel, Vika, yes - finely onions, grated carrots and fry. And fry for pouring, I fry onions, carrots, add tomatoes or my matbuha, add water - and all this is slow. Sometimes I add sour cream.

[Lerele]

Lerele, and in the minced meat as usual?
In general, I love with fry, but sometimes soooo reluctance to mess around. to quickly throw everything into the slow and free from the kitchen.



kirch, Lyudochka, thanks!

stuffed peppers in a slow sauce?

Stuffed aromatic peppers without water and frying, the recipe for a multicooker, the temperature regime is observed

and slow cookers appeared much earlier than cartoons

[Mirabel]

Mirabel, minced meat usually, onion, pepper, salt, rice.
And why unnecessary body movements and excess fat? Moreover, you still pull the peppers out of it. I'm not economical, then I pour it out.
So I don't see any sense in frying something else.
But if you then eat this broth, then you can do the frying.

then pour it out

Irin, pouring out the broth? oh ... and he is so (for me) delicious it turns out that it would turn out more of it - it would be more - direct vegetable concentrate

especially if simmering vegetable cabbage rolls or peppers with vegetable filling

by the way, if you don't want to eat this broth - a delicious cake is obtained with such meat and vegetable broths, it does not take long to knead the yeast dough

[Irsha]

Irsha,
Ira, cool recipe, here's my joy, I love peppers stuffed with vegetables



Lerele,
How unusual (for me) to see a RED stuffed pepper.
Thanks for the idea, I will definitely try (my mom and grandmother only stuffed green peppers, that's what force of habit means)
How useful it is to see a photo

[Oksana]

peppers stuffed with vegetables

Oksana, if without meat, then I stand the vegetables before stuffing in a mixture of salt + allspice + any oil = for a beautiful color of broth

I used to fry before, and then, on the forum, I learned to * pickle * in oil

Ira, how is that?

[Natasha]

Natasha, cabbage, carrots, onions - salt, pepper, + any butter, often ghee or sunflower, in a bag or bowl, even if they stand for an hour, they feed themselves with butter, girls often pickle vegetables with butter, I also really liked it, and then I stuff peppers with them

and before the era of HP. ru just toasted vegetables for minced meat

tomatoes underneath and between the peppers

[Irsha]

Irsha, live a century ... I would never have thought to make a dough on such, I will definitely try
brendabaker, and I fell in love with fnarshirovannye peppers, when I tried such red, sweet, juicy, but as before, I did not like thin-walled green. I also love these peppers very raw, I'd better gnaw the fruit on the pepper

[Lerele]

Lerele,
here is a vivid example of kneading dough with meat broth Asian cakes with sourdough on meat broth, onion and katyk

I take beef trimmings for my dog-cat, my little things are fatty not in size, I slowly brew all the fat trimmings from the trimmings, and even the bone there, and all kinds of dry vegetables too, drain the broth when ready, thicken under a bush in the and then eat some little belly, and then on this dense broth I make a flat cake, not sourdough, however, for the industry. yeast

it's all about

How unusual (for me) to see stuffed RED peppers.

oh, Oksan, why? Or is it not customary for you to stuff red peppers?
wow .. I forgot already, yes, we, too, more and more often stuffed green peppers - in the garden, red peppers will not always ripen, and in the markets red was expensive

but as soon as they began to bring peppers of all colors to our Russian markets - yeah, I forgot that I stuffed green

at the wholesaler, I ask you to choose red and yellow, a little more expensive, but you don't want green anymore

[Irsha]

Irsha,
Ira, and I, in the old fashioned way, eat red peppers like that, or in a salad, but stuff green ones, with thin walls and tender skin, just as an accent to minced meat We still sell it, the Dolma variety is called specifically for stuffing
I looked at the photo of Lerele and realized what to try with red, salad

Girls, and thick-walled ones, which mature in our greenhouse only, are very good for stuffing, and planted a richer taste, once, only them, there was no choice, but ... "a big piece of mouth rejoices" (c)

[Smile]

Smile,
Ekaterina, red, orange and yellow thick-walled peppers with us never drop below 200 rubles in price, and the Dolma variety can be bought in the summer at 40-50 rubles per kg.

below 200 rubles never fall in price

Probably because they are imported or greenhouse - they do not ripen in the open field

I already know about multi-cookers with Masterfry, and with remote control, and about those in which you can cook directly in the car, and I've heard about pressure cookers ... but I haven't heard anything about the slow cooker)

[kris_tina]

kris_tina, slow cookers have been around for over 70 years and are as familiar as the egg toaster and electric kettle
(A new delivery of slow cookers from Russell Hobbs, I see, sold out in a month without any PR and at a very high price)
And they usually advertise new items on the market, so it happened.

A PS slow cooker is not a slow cooker. ... A slow cooker is an electric pan for stewing and simmering, (like a pot in the oven), it is impossible to fry, steam and make yogurt in it.

slow cookers have been around for over 70 years and are as familiar as toaster and kettle

not in Russia, in the USA in the 70s of the last century in connection with the massive exit of housewives to work and comfortable, not requiring the constant presence of a woman, units began to be used - slow cookers and multicooker

for Russians, it is a slow cooker and to this day - the unit is not well-known and little needed - I bought my Boy in 93g, the seller was very surprised - 2 pieces The boy was in that little shop, I didn't know anything about them myself - I just love everything new and unknown, and if I lived then in an apartment with gas, then perhaps I did not pay attention to electrical appliances

among of all of my friends and family, only I have slow cookers, and none of them is even going to acquire them, and in real sale there are no slow cookers, only online stores, and there are few offers

even on many culinary forums they still ask - what kind of thing is this, a slow cooker, and how to cook in it

but on Avito they also sell Parenki and foreign slow cookers - they did not take root, the principle of cooking remained not understood, it is not tasty, for a long time, the pressure cooker is better

[kris_tina]

kris_tina,
Many are afraid to leave the device on for the whole day when no one is at home, this also stops them from purchasing. I cook on weekends when I'm away for 2-3 hours, but not 8-10 hours.

and refrigerators work around the clock, water heaters, in * standby * mode * many devices, delayed start

[Irsha]

Irsha,
Ir, a few days ago I suddenly came back from the open door and turned off the slow-cooker with almost ready-made soup. And I went shopping ... I'm surprised at myself.
I later found out that a high-rise building DIRIZHABLE had caught fire nearby, there were victims., The reason, the wiring was short.
Apparently my inner voice sensed something. I don't even know what to advise ..

if I lived then in an apartment with gas

Irina, I have a gas stove and an oven in my house, but some electrical appliances make life much easier. Take the same slow cooker: when I heard one name, I wondered: "Why slow, when you need faster?" But somehow, at my leisure, I was still curious, who is this taka beast? I sat down plump for the descriptions of different models, and after a few hours I knew: she should be in my "zoo" It remains only to find what I tried to do, along the way seducing my friend. Both are very happy.A decent volume allows you to cook more than once, which makes the cost of electricity not at all burdensome, but the saving of time (laid down and doing other things) is very significant, and if you take into account the tasty result, then the benefits of this saucepan are undeniable

I really want a little slow, a maximum of up to 3.5, probably, but I don't see at all where to get it except for foreign Internet stores. maybe I'm not looking right, give me links-passwords what to look for and where

I have a gas stove and an oven in my house, but some electrical appliances make life much easier.

Yes

I wrote about myself then, almost a quarter of a century ago - now I have a lot of electrical engineering, the gas stove is already old

the wiring was short.

our old, still Soviet wiring lines do not match the power of modern electrical appliances

the state would have to start changing electrical wiring in all cities and villages - and there would be fewer fires, otherwise people are hanging a bunch of units on one outlet

give links-passwords

look on Avito, there is

[Smile]

Smile, I have now muddied my pea soup in a new way, at the same time I am warming myself (there is no heating, but it's snowing outside)

pea soup muddied

And I cooked Ribs with vegetables, potatoes and broth - according to the current weather, this is it! On the street +6, gloomy and unfriendly ... I want something hot, the dough is being prepared for the Ossetian pie and I feverishly figure out on which program to cook potatoes in a filling with Brand 6051

[Brown-eyed]

Brown-eyed,
Vera, slow cookers always sell out very quickly and, apparently, they are not delivered much. You need to constantly monitor stores.
Of the 3.5 liter, RUSSEL HOBBS comes mainly.
There are two similar ones. One of them with a ceramic bowl, and the other with Teflon, the difference in numbers, you need to check this
19790-56 with ceramic.
Good luck, maybe you just have them on sale

Mirabel, I suspect that I
Very rarely I do frying, if only I make a recipe, and without frying it is good in everyday cooking.



Yes, and pour the peppers with sour cream + water, salt, pepper, chopped tomatoes, I can put onions with dill. And here is a photo already 13 years old

And what is the volume of the slow, that the peppers are so gorgeous?

I really want a little slow

as an option electrotazhin, for example 🔗 Tazhin electric Atlanta ATH-216

or ceramic pots - and there is Temka - ladies are addicted Baking pots (cook, advise, show off) with current electric ovens with a good run of thermoregulation - a good option, the displacement can be selected for any needs, baking pots are now in any market more or less not a big city in good variety and not expensive

look on Avito, there is

we have revised everything 24 pages found nothing something

[Brown-eyed]

Brown-eyed,
🔗

Can they be sent by a transport company?

Careful with the shipping company. CDEK broke the slow one for me.

[Brown-eyed]

Brown-eyed, Vera! I always use Business Lines in such cases. Maybe not the cheapest delivery, but reliable. They can pick up the cargo from the sender's house, which is important when buying on Avito, when the owner does not want to trudge to the terminal of the transport company. You can make an order to visit the sender yourself by calling their reference phone. When ordering from a transport company, ask to write in the accompanying documents (in the comments) that the box with the cargo cannot be turned over and nothing can be put on top of the box. The sender should be told to write Top on the box where the top is and once again warn the driver when picking up the box from the sender's entrance (from the apartment, which is more expensive) once again, that you cannot turn the box over and put something on top of it. You can pay upon receipt. Insurance is included in the order price. There were no misfires. Now this is the only way I receive a fragile cargo, having gained negative experience with other methods of sending.

[Brown-eyed]

Brown-eyed,
For me, too, BUSINESS LINES were brought to the entrance in an impeccable condition.



Smile,
And about the ribs, you can find out in more detail what and how and what happened.

you can learn more about ribs

It turned out well, only I held it longer so that the broth was richer, and everything else is the same as with meat

Thank you for sharing your experience, I'll go to study

I baked the chicken in a slow saucepan and threw two handfuls of dried apples at the bottom of the pan, the weight of the chicken was 1.6 kg. - 1 hour 30 minutes for High and 2 hours for Low .. the yummy turned out to be extraordinary, even the bottom skin was baked until golden brown I can't find who gave this advice Thank you very much !!!

I throw several large pieces of chicken into a baking bag, and put chopped apples on the sides and on top, bake for 40 minutes - very tasty
And from seasonings only salt and ground black pepper.

[Natalia]

Natalia, Natasha, but the apples haven't dissolved?
I once cooked with fresh apples, as they became like some kind of incomprehensible puree. And the whole chicken in the slow is really magic !!!

Girls, please share the recipe for jellied meat. There are many beef bones, which ones are better, how long to cook, how to make them delicious? ))

[venechka]

venechka, for jellied bones from the legs are needed - from the hooves to the knees, of course, not bare bones, but with all the veins and tendons, in which the gelling substance is concentrated

if only beef jelly, then add ears, lips, cheeks, I always put meat, which is also with veins and fascia, it is the most fragrant and strong broth

half a bowl of bones - meat, half water, the more bones - the less the output of the finished jellied meat

Ladies! I report - I made peppers yesterday without frying, in 2 floors, so I was afraid to cook without water at all.
Completely according to Ira-Irsha's recipe. It turned out awesome!
Thank you very much to two Irishki for the simplified version of cooking stuffed peppers in our magic pots!

[Vika]

Budget jelly = you can + beef bones

in 2 floors

Vika, peppers in 2 floors? or something else stuffed?

Natasha, and the apples haven't dissolved?

Vikul, the apples did not lose their shape and were even slightly hard and in places a little as if burnt ... I threw them away ...

[Irina]

Irina, Aha, peppers!
GuGu, Natasha! well, great. probably need to urgently dry apples and cook

[Mirabel]

I baked the chicken in a slow saucepan and threw two handfuls of dried apples at the bottom of the pan, the weight of the chicken was 1.6 kg. - 1 hour 30 minutes for High and 2 hours for Low .. the yummy turned out to be extraordinary, even the bottom skin was baked until golden brown I can't find who gave this advice Thank you very much !!!

What a nimble slow cooker, but you can find out which model (I just can't ignore the thought of another slow cooker)



Mirabel,
Vika, was the minced meat meat? You can at least roughly say the proportions, that I have no idea of ​​my own. (I like minced turkey with cheese and onions, but in peppers, apparently you will have to make lean pork)

[venechka]

venechka, for jellied bones from the legs are needed - from the hooves to the knees, of course, not bare bones, but with all the veins and tendons in which the gelling substance is concentrated

if only beef jelly, then add ears, lips, cheeks, I always put meat, which is also with veins and fascia, it gives the most fragrant and strong broth

half a bowl of bones - meat, half water, the more bones - the less the output of finished jellied meat in volume

Thanks for the detailed recipe! I'll try today)

but you can find out which model

I have 3.5 liters. with an oval pan CROCK-POT, bought in Finland three years ago.

[GuGu]

GuGu,
THANKS, I also dream of crock pot, but so far the delivery price is confusing.
(In fact, most of all I want another one like mine, Kenwood SR-706, mechanical, it’s a pity that they disappeared from sale), so I don’t dare to put an end to this matter.

[Oksana]

Oksana, A mole-pot and a slow-cooker are not the same thing?
Proportions in peppers - 8 small peppers, 5oo-600g of minced beef-pork, an almost full multi-glass of rice, 1 medium onion and quite a lot of water in the minced meat, as Ira advises
At the bottom of the slow cooker there are 3 small grated carrots and between the peppers an average, 300 grams of canned tomatoes.
since there were 2 floors of peppers, I added a little water to the pot.

[Mirabel]

Mirabel,
Vika, I understood about the peppers, THANKS,
Croc Pot is the name of a company that makes good slow cookers. I lick my lips at them, but the toad chokes to pay shipping.
