5. Navodila za uporabo
The thermal cooker utilizes a two-step cooking process: initial heating on a stovetop, followed by thermal cooking in the insulated outer pot.
- Pripravi hrano: Place your ingredients into one or both inner cooking pots. Ensure the pots are not overfilled, leaving space for boiling.
- Začetno ogrevanje: Place the inner pot(s) directly onto a stovetop (gas, electric, induction compatible). Bring the contents to a boil and simmer for the required initial cooking time, typically 5-20 minutes depending on the recipe and ingredients. Ensure the inner pot lid is on during this phase.
- Transfer to Thermal Pot: Carefully remove the hot inner pot(s) from the stovetop using oven mitts. Immediately place the hot inner pot(s) into the outer thermal pot.
- Pečat: Close the outer thermal pot lid securely. This creates an airtight seal that traps heat and allows the food to continue cooking slowly.
- Thermal Cooking: Allow the food to cook for the recommended thermal cooking time as per your recipe. This can range from 1 to 8 hours or more, depending on the dish. Avoid opening the lid unnecessarily, as this releases heat.
- Postrezite: Once the thermal cooking time is complete, open the outer pot lid, carefully remove the inner pot(s), and serve your meal.
6. Vzdrževanje in čiščenje
- Inner Pots and Lids: These are made of stainless steel and can be washed with warm soapy water. For stubborn food residues, soak before washing. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely to prevent water spots.
- Outer Thermal Pot: Obrišite zunanjost z mehko damp cloth. Do not immerse the outer pot in water or wash it in a dishwasher, as this can damage the insulation.
- Shranjevanje: Ensure all components are clean and dry before storing. Store in a cool, dry place.
- Izogibajte se abrazivom: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scourers, or harsh chemicals on any part of the cooker, as they can scratch or damage the surfaces.
7. Odpravljanje težav
- Food Not Hot Enough:
- Ensure the initial stovetop heating was sufficient (food was brought to a rolling boil).
- Verify the outer pot lid was securely closed and not opened frequently during thermal cooking.
- Check if the thermal cooking time was too long for the recipe or ingredients.
- Food Not Cooked Through:
- Increase the initial stovetop cooking time.
- Ensure sufficient liquid was used in the recipe.
- Cut ingredients into smaller, more uniform pieces for even cooking.
