Swan SF17021RN Retro Slow Cooker with 3 Temperature Settings, Keep Warm Function, 3.5L, 200W, Retro Red

Product Information

Basic slow cookers won’t get hot enough to sauté meat or vegetables, so you’ll need to do this in a pan before transferring the contents to the bowl. However, more expensive models offer a different one-pot solution. This can either be bowls that you use on your hob or in your oven in place of a pan (some will even be induction compatible). They will need to be moved to the slow cooker base. Machines with a sauté function for high-heat browning can simply be switched to slow cooking. If you receive any damaged items on your delivery, please state the full extent of the damage on the driver’s delivery note when signing for the goods.

This function starts your cooking off on a high setting before automatically reducing the temperature to the low setting for the remainder of the cooking time.This will come in handy if you’re out for the day. Once the timer you set has been reached, the cooker will either switch off or automatically shift to the ‘keep warm’ setting, depending on the model, so you come home to dinner that's ready to serve. A competent and good-looking slow cooker, but shop around and you can either spend less or get more features for your money.

Most slow cookers will have similar standard controls – high heat for meals cooked in less than a few hours, low heat for all-day cooking. A 'keep warm' mode should hold food at a serveable temperature without actually cooking it. Some cookers will switch to 'keep warm' automatically after an elapsed cooking time, while more basic models need this altered manually.

You can of course just use this multi-cooker as a slow cooker, for which it has a generous 6 litre capacity, but you can also take advantage of the sear setting to brown meat and veggies before slow cooking for a more rich flavour.Functions: additional functions on the slow cooker including browning, reheating, reducing and whether it is hob or oven-safe Controls are simple. A knob to select from three heat levels: high, low and auto. The latter is the most useful: a high heat until your dish comes up to temperature, then drops to a lower heat to cook slowly and economically. A little red light above the knob indicates whether it’s on or not. They also calculate the energy consumed by each model to see how economical they are, and measure the moisture lost when cooking to ensuring your dinner won't end up dried out. An increasingly popular way of cooking, sous-vide is a French term that simply means ‘under vacuum’. You place your food inside a sealed pouch and then pop it into a temperature-controlled water bath to cook.
