\"Slow<\/a>Slow Cooker Recipes that are Comforting and Healthy <\/strong><\/h2>\n

When the temperatures drop outside, it\u2019s tempting to reach for rich, cheesy comfort food that may be unhealthy. But recipes that warm your insides don\u2019t have to require hours of labor or put a damper on a healthy lifestyle. Escape chilly nights by coming home to delicious slow cooker recipes. Follow these tips for a perfect meal every time.<\/p>\n

\"Slow<\/a>Use the Right Size<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Slow cookers come in a range of sizes, so check recipes for the recommended size<\/a> or consider halving or doubling a recipe to better suit your slow cooker. If the slow cooker is overfilled or underfilled your meal may not cook properly. Most recipes generally call for a five- or six-quart slow cooker, but you may need a bigger one if you\u2019re feeding a large family or want leftovers.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t overfill<\/a> your slow cooker: Fill no more than two-thirds to make sure your meal finishes on time and to prevent food-safety hazards.<\/p>\n

Keep The Lid On<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Resist the urge to check on and smell your meal: Opening the lid<\/a> lets the heat escape and slows cooking time. Every peek adds about 15 to 20 minutes<\/a> of cooking time. Check for doneness about 30 to 45 minutes before the cooking time is up. Avoid stirring; it\u2019s not necessary in a slow cooker.<\/p>\n

Plan Ahead<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The purpose of a slow cooker is to throw all the ingredients together in the morning and forget about it until it\u2019s ready for dinner. Plan your meal<\/a> the night before by shopping for every ingredient in the recipe and prepping if necessary. Chop vegetables, trim meat, and measure out other ingredients the night before. Refrigerate ingredients in separate containers then add them to the cooker in the morning. Don\u2019t refrigerate anything in the slow cooker because it will take too long to heat.<\/p>\n

If you won\u2019t be home by the time it\u2019s done, make sure your cooker has a warm setting to switch to when cooking is done.<\/p>\n

Brown to Boost Flavor<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Maximize flavor by browning meat<\/a> in a skillet before adding it to the cooker. It\u2019s not necessary if you\u2019re in a hurry, but seared meat adds a richer flavor. Saut\u00e9d vegetables also add more flavor. Deglaze the pan with liquid and scrape up any brown bits to add to the cooker. If you want a thicker sauce<\/a>, dredge the meat with flour before browning.<\/p>\n

Avoid Safety Hazards<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Slow cookers stay at a low temperature for several hours, which is how they achieve a flavorful, delicious meal, but there is a potential for food safety hazards. Temperatures between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit are in the danger zone<\/a> because bacteria can thrive. To avoid the danger zone, never add frozen ingredients, and keep all ingredients refrigerated until time to use. Slow cookers usually have a low and a high setting. If you\u2019re using the low setting, simmer liquids before adding to speed up the heating process. If you\u2019re using a large hunk of meat or whole chicken, cut it into smaller pieces to allow it to cook through.<\/p>\n

Choose the Right Cut<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Leaner cuts<\/a> may dry out in the low heat. Look for fatty and tough meats such as chuck roasts, short ribs, pork shoulders, and lamb shanks. The low heat melts the fat and breaks down the connective tissue<\/a> to tenderize less expensive cuts of meat. Dark meat chicken is juicier than white breasts. If you want a silky sauce, trim excess fat to avoid greasy liquid.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Add Too Much Liquor<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Adding wine to meat dishes is usually a win. But because slow cookers use a lid to trap in heat, the alcohol<\/a> doesn\u2019t reduce as it would with high heat on the stove. If your recipe calls for wine or liquor, keep it to a small splash to avoid an off putting alcohol taste. Or use it to deglaze the pan after browning meat and then add it to the slow cooker.<\/p>\n

Clean Every Bit of Grime<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It\u2019s fairly easy to clean the slow cooker insert. But if grime is burnt on, add a squirt of dish liquid<\/a> and fill the insert with water. Cover and turn on low for two to three hours. Let the water cool, remove the insert, and then wipe away the grime.<\/p>\n
