The Slow Cook Setting `S'
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care must be taken when warming bone china as it may be damaged if too hot. Some advantages of slow cooking are: The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing. Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking. Bearing in mind these advantages, it makes sense to cook larger quantities of food than required and store them in a freezer to be used cold or for reheating. It is important to follow the guidelines given for preparing food using the `S' setting.
