Slow Cookers

Slow cookers, also known as Crock-pots, are small or medium electronic cooking appliances used to simmer food at relatively low temperatures over a period of hours. This allows for the unattended cooking of stews, pot roasts, soup and other foods. Slow-cooked food also has certain different flavors compared to convection cooked food.

Is crock pot cooking time significantly increased by occasionally removing the lid to check the contents?

Yes. To quote my my owners guide. The slow cooker will not recover heat losses quickly when cooking on low setting. Significant amounts of heat escape whenever the lid is removed; there for cooking time must be extended. Avoid frequent removal of the cover for checking cooking progress or stirring. Never remove cover during the first 2 hours when baking breads of cakes. it is not necessary to stir while cooking on LOW heat. While using HIGH heat for short periods, occasional stirring improves the distribution of flavors.

What is Jersey bean crock?

Jersey Bean Crock is a delicious, wholesome, traditional, bean-based dish made in crock pot. The crock pot is an earthen ware pot with a lid in which the ingredients would cook slowly. Talk to any Jersey man (or woman) about what actually goes into a bean crock and you could wait until the (Jersey) cows come home before you get a consensus.

Generally, everyone would agree that it contains beans!! Perhaps a mixture of haricot, butter, brown and kidney beans that all need soaking overnight. Often a pig's trotter is used to thicken the liquid around the beans, but some use belly pork, and some even add in (very contentious this one) shin of beef to make it more meaty. Usually there is an onion in there but some add carrots as well. Usually there are some herbs - perhaps bay, thyme, parsley.

One thing that everyone will agree on is that it is invariably delicious, warming and very filling. In Jersey it would be served with some crusty bread - perhaps Jersey cabbage loaf.

How do you repair the chipped lip of a corningware slow cooker?

You probably can't, but a light sanding with Emory cloth might help.

I'd be hesitant to try anything spectacular though. Glassware

is fragile and can be damaged by misuse.

Be advised too, that there is a school of thought which will tell you

that newer (post 1984 if memory serves) Corningware may spontaneously explode.

GOOGLE "exploding corningware" for a plethora of stories.

Can a slow cooker heat up a house and make the Air Conditioner run more?

Although the slow cooker emits heat when operating, the heat generated is nominal in comparison to the mass of the air inside the house. So, no, the slow cooker, by itself, will not cause the AC to run more than it would normally.

Can you cook rice in a Crockpot?

Yes. :-) Low heat, 4 hours, and add an extra 1/4 to 1/3 cup water for every cup of rice. So if you normally do 1 cup of rice and 2 cups of water, use 2 1/4 cups of water or 2 1/3. If you do 2 cups of rice and 4 cups of water, use 4 1/2 to 4 2/3 cups water.
