Which Cooking Method? That depends on three things: time, temperature, and texture. See how to get the very best results, every time. Pressure Cook
No planning required! Fast, flavorful meals, even from frozen. How It Works Pressure and steam speed up cooking up to 70% faster than other methods, locking in nutrients and adding moisture. Best For Quick cooking: Enjoy fork-tender pot roast in under an hour! Most foods: Chicken, roasts, firm veggies, potatoes, dried beans, rice, soup, dessert, you name it!
Need to Know • Liquid creates the steam and pressure, so add at least 1 cup (250 mL) or what the recipe calls for. • It takes a little time for pressure to build, like preheating the oven, but you’ll more than make up the time during cooking. • Once cooking begins, there’s no peeking. Let the presets take the guesswork out of making everyday favorites.
Slow Cook
Zero fuss. Just add ingredients and let it do its thing. How It Works Food cooks on a low temperature for hours which tenderizes meat and adds rich flavor. Best For Hands-off cooking: Add ingredients in the morning, let cook all day, and have a flavorful, tender one-pot meal ready for dinner. oasts, soups, chili: Soup, stew, and chili are always winners. So R are briskets, short ribs, chuck roasts, pork shoulder, and lamb shanks.
Need to Know •W e recommend using fresh or thawed meat for recipes made with the slow cooker setting. • It’s best to brown meat first for better flavor and texture. • Y ou can add foods at different stages, but lifting the lid causes heat to escape. It might take extra time for it to return to the cooking temp (like opening the oven door). • F resh herbs, other than rosemary, dry out during slow cooking, so use dried herbs or add fresh herbs right at the end.

Sous Vide
The secret to restaurant-quality steaks, fish fillets, and chops.
How It Works Food is sealed in an airtight bag and is placed in a temperature-controlled water bath to slowly and gently cook. The result: Every part of the food—inside and out, top to bottom—cooks to the same temperature and texture. Best For Predictable results: No more undercooked centers with overcooked outsides. For the best results, quickly sear right before serving to add color, texture, and even more flavor. Meat, fish, and veggies: Great for tender cuts of meat, firm fish, chicken, or to tenderize tougher cuts of meat. Plus, veggies taste as vibrant as they look. Water Bath Know-How • S tore-bought resealable freezer bags are sturdier than storage bags. You can also use reusable silicone bags or vacuum-sealed bags. • Place the food in a single layer in the bag so everything cooks evenly. • Remove the air from the bag before sealing. You can either press on the bag with your forearm to expel the air, or you can lower the bag into a pot of water and the water pressure will push the air out. • To cook, fully submerge the bag leaving the seal outside of the water. If it floats, you can clip a binder clip to the bottom of the bag and place a heavy spoon into the clip opening. Or, you can place the wire rack on top of the bag and add pie weights or heavy spoons if needed. Need to Know • Preheating the water takes about 35 minutes, so this is a good time to prep and marinade. • All of our recipes use fresh or completely thawed foods, not frozen. Our cooking times are not accurate for frozen foods. If you choose to cook from frozen, you'll need to increase the cooking time by 50%. • Use garlic powder instead of raw garlic for two reasons: taste and safety. With this slower cooking method, raw garlic can turn bitter, and in rare cases, can become unsafe to eat. • Most meats can remain in the water bath after reaching the set temperature without overcooking for up to two hours, so you have plenty of wiggle room for serving. • We recommend cooking all food at or above 130°F (54.5°C), searing proteins after cooking, and chilling food immediately after cooking when storing.

Homemade Yogurt With just two ingredients and five minutes of hands-on time, you can have creamy yogurt, made just the way you like it. Yogurt Vocabulary Live or Active Cultures: These are good bacteria that turn milk into yogurt and give it its texture and tangy flavor. You’ll need live cultures, or yogurt starter, for the first batch. Any plain, unflavored store-bought yogurt with live yogurt cultures will do. After that, you can use your homemade yogurt as the starter. Science! Culturing: This is the amount of time it takes for milk and starter to turn into yogurt, anywhere from 8–24 hours. The longer it cooks, the tangier it gets. At 16 hours or longer, the tanginess will be similar to store-bought yogurt. When adding sugar before culturing, we recommend culturing no longer than 16 hours. Milk Protein Skin: As milk heats up, a skin can form on the surface, so stir regularly. There’s nothing wrong with the skin other than it leaves hard bits in the otherwise smooth yogurt. Just skim off when done cooking.
Need to Know Before Culturing
• When adding the starter, the milk must be 105–115°F (41–46°C). If it’s too hot it won’t properly culture (like yeast when making bread). • Before adding the yogurt starter to the milk, whisk a small amount of the heated milk into the starter in a separate bowl. This way, the starter will be smooth and evenly distribute.
Thick Yogurt
• Place a strainer such as a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth, coffee filters, or high-quality paper towels over a large bowl to catch liquid. Then add the yogurt, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until desired consistency, about six hours for Greek-style yogurt. • The liquid that drains off after straining (whey) can be used in protein drinks, smoothies, soup, marinades, as a starter to make more yogurt, or as a substitute for buttermilk.
Storing
• Gently spoon into individual portions or storage containers without stirring. • You might notice some separation. This is normal, especially with longer culturing. • Will stay fresh in your refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Next Batches
• You can use yogurt starter from your homemade yogurt for up to a week. • If your yogurt is not culturing as quickly as earlier batches, the starter may be too weak. Use store-bought yogurt in your next batch.
Homemade Yogurt Makes 8 cups (2 L)
8 cups (2 L) 2% milk ½ cup (125 mL) plain unsweetened yogurt with active cultures
Homemade Vanilla Yogurt Makes 8 cups (2 L)
8 cups (2 L) 2% milk ½ cup (125 mL) plain unsweetened yogurt with active cultures ½ cup (125 mL) sugar 2 tbsp (30 mL) vanilla extract
1. Add the milk to the inner pot. Select on Low and heat the milk until it reaches to 180–185°F (82–85°C), 20–25 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent skin from forming. Press . 2. Let the milk cool to 105–115°F (41–46°C), about 1 hour at room temperature. Stir as needed to keep skin from forming. If any forms, skim it off. 3. In a small bowl, whisk ½ cup (125 mL) of the warm milk into the starter yogurt. Pour the mixture in the inner pot and stir well to blend. For vanilla yogurt, add the sugar and vanilla. 4. Cover and select on Med. Set the timer to 8 hours or up to 12 hours for tangier yogurt; press and hold . 5. Once the timer is up, press . Gently spoon into storage containers without stirring. Chill before eating. Serve with fresh fruit, if you’d like.
Cook’s Tips The thickness and creaminess of the yogurt depends on the milk you use. If you use skim milk, the yogurt will be a little thinner. Don’t add anything other than sugar and vanilla before culturing. Anything acidic, like fresh fruit, can be added right before serving.

Cook’s Tips It can be difficult to remove the original packaging from meat when it’s frozen. Before freezing, place the meat in a resealable bag in a single layer to make it easier to remove when frozen. The cooking times are recommendations and may vary based on the amount and thickness of the food being cooked. If you’re cooking very thick cuts of meat, additional time may be required

Cook’s Tips When using veggies, avoid frozen veggies and those that have a lot of moisture, like tomatoes (use sun-dried tomatoes instead). Cooked meat and cheese combinations are great! Think chorizo and Mexican cheese, ham and Swiss, or whatever you like or have in the fridge. Egg bites can be made ahead and frozen. For a protein-packed breakfast or snack, just thaw and heat in the microwave for a couple of minutes.
