How to use your slow cooker the correct way and the common mistakes to avoid

Your slow cooker could be your new best friend. 

A slow cooker can be your friend or your foe. These countertop devices cook your food at a controlled heat for a long period, resulting in maximum flavour for minimum effort. There's no need to worry about your dinner drying out, either. Slow cookers lock in moisture, resulting in tender roasts, stews and soups, every time. These gadgets not only save you time, they also save you money - modern slow cookers consume as little as 150 watts per hour at a low setting. That's less than €0.07 per hour of cooking.
