Isn’t this great news?
Use this technique as often as needed.
Of course, always unplug and let your appliance cool before cleaning it.
Because your Crock-Pot is food-safe, this combination won’t harm the material.
It’s also an easy, effective way to scrub.
If needed, baking soda can polish the outside of your slow cooker from any streaks or food residue.
To prevent stuck-on messes, you’re able to try Crock-Pot liners or use a non-stick cooking spray.
Both of these options work well with most recipes.
Just be sure to look quickly and only near the end of the cook time.
Allowing yourself this little peek will prevent over-browning the food and the appliance.
