The Chef and the Slow Cooker

By: The Local Palate

FOR HIS LATEST COOKBOOK, HUGH ACHESON DIGS OUT HIS CROCKPOT—AND HE THINKS YOU SHOULD TOO

You have a slow cooker. Somewhere. Your mother gave it to you when you went away to school. Or you got one for a wedding present from that strange aunt who wears a bright green muumuu every day of her life. Or you got one from your bank for opening a savings account. Maybe it’s in the back of the closet with that cold-press juicer that you used twice, or in the garage under the boxes of old tax returns that you probably could shred by now. You should find it, or if you really can’t find it because it wisped away in the last move or at that potluck you went to down the street four years ago, then go buy one. Because I want you to speak in its particular language of cooking. I want to show you how to use that slow cooker. Slow cookers are an old-school technology that will guide you to better meals in this contemporary world.
