Re: [CnD] Slow cooking

The liners are like plastic bags, like the roasting bags made for use in your conventional oven, mostly used for roasts or turkey so it stays moist in the oven. The ones designed for crockpots are useful when you want something to cook in its own juices but not dry out. Also useful for dinners you

1 American stick of butter equals 4 ounces, or about 115 grams. It also makes 1/2 cup of butter. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Bridget Micallef via Cookinginthedark Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2020 3:21 AM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Bridget Micallef S

Thanks for all the infro, it's very helpful. I'm just learning how to cook, so excuse my ignorance. Can I use the temperature guide for when a recipe says, for example, 1 cup of milk at 110deegrees? -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On

Re: [CnD] Slow cooking

Marie, I'm in agreement with you. I also have 2 Rival slow cookers, one from the eighties, which I believe is a 3 quart one, and my 5 or 6 quart one is from the nineties, and they both still work great! They only have low, medium and high on them for settings. I've also gone out and left it cookin

Re: [CnD] Slow cooking

I've never had a problem leaving my crock pot on while I was not home. That's the beauty of it. I use it for all sorts of things, but I especially like cooking baked beans in it. It frees up my oven and I can cook 2 1/2 pound at a time. They freeze very well if there are left overs. Jeannes --
