Slow cooker season is well and truly upon us. And if you have a hankering for hearty winter stews and low-maintenance meals during the darker, colder evenings, a slow cooker can make the ideal addition to your kitchen. But in a world where home cooks hunt for multi-purpose appliances, you might wonder whether you can put a slow cooker pot in the oven.
Although the best slow cookers were once considered an old-fashioned appliance, they’ve grown in popularity over the past few years - and rightly so. Ideal for singletons and large families alike, slow cookers allow you to cook low and slow with minimal input. After popping all of the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, it'll cook while you get on with other things, ready to dish up at meal time.
