Tips to cook in a thermal cooker?
Here are some tips that will help you master the skill to cook with a thermal cooker:
a) Fill the pot fuller?
The amount of ingredients that you put into the inner pot of the thermal cooker affects how long the heat is retained in it. The fuller the pot, the better.
Having more mass of ingredients in the pot means that there will be lesser air. Hence, this helps to retain temperature better.?
Even so, it is not advisable to fill the pot all the way to the lid. In most cases, the thermal cooker should not be filled exceeding 80% of the inner pot.?
b) Defrost all the frozen food??
If you’re using any form of frozen food, do make sure that they thaw properly before putting it into the inner pot to boil.?
The food must be completely hot before the transfer happens. Having incompletely defrosted ingredients will bring down the temperature quicker. This will hamper the thermal cooking process.?
c) Make sure the ingredients are in full boil before the transition
When you’re boiling the ingredients with the lid on, make sure it reaches boiling point. Let it boil for a little bit longer before the transition.?
This will help the ingredients to get hot further. If you believe there are ingredients that are not fully defrosted, boil longer.?
d) Speed of transition
Once the pot has reached a boiling point for some time, get ready for the transfer. Hold the handle with a cloth and lift it into the outer container of the thermal cooker.?
Do it swiftly and carefully to minimize heat loss. Immediately close the lid after that.?
e) Don’t open the lid?
We all know how much we love looking at how our ingredients are doing. Some of us might have the itch to check it out as well.?
Well, don’t.?
Opening the lid unnecessary will cause the heat to escape fast. This will reduce the heat in the container and risk undercooking your food.?
Patience is a virtue. Give it a little bit of time to do the cooking process and you will reap the deliciously cooked food as a reward in the end.?
What not to do with your thermal cooker
Do not put your outer container of the thermal cooker to cook.?
Only the inner pot is designed for cooking purposes. You can put it on the stovetop or induction cooker. Do read the instruction manual to know what kind of cooking device is compatible with the inner pot of your thermal cooker.?
The outer container can be made out of plastic and stainless steel which will get damaged or melt on your stove. It is designed to retain heat, not withstand fire.?
Not all outer containers of your thermal cooker can be washed.?
Some thermal cooker has a foam layer technology that is used to insulate heat. This foam tends to expand when exposed to moisture.?
In this case, washing the container is not a good idea. Because when it does expand, the thermal cooker will be damaged and won’t be usable. Worse is that this will not be covered by most manufacturers’ warranty.?
The only part that is safe for water washing is the inner pot. You can?clean?it like any other regular stainless steel pot.?
To clean the outer container of the thermal cooker, wipe it with a damp cloth. This is sufficient.?
