Synopsis

Whether you use an electric slow cooker or a more traditional oven or stovetop, slow cooking is a wonderful way to prepare wholesome, home-cooked food with the greatest of ease.

Celebrating slow cooking in all its forms, The Slow Cook Book includes 200 recipes ranging from typical slow-cook dishes-hearty, warming stews and pot roasts-to more surprising fare such as cakes.

Showing two methods of slow cooking for each recipe — one using an electric crock pot and the other using a combination of traditional pots, pans, stovetop, and oven — The Slow Cook Book demonstrates step-by-step techniques and provides everything you need to become a slow-cook expert.
