Slow cookers

Perhaps you could stand it on a trivet then you could use more water.

I will be interested to know the outcome!

Thanks folks

You can use your slow cooker as a bain-marie. It is very successful, and sets salmon mousse nicely. Try the Shepherds pie and see.

You could always give it a go but stand well clear.

I think it would work with water. I don't think I would put it in dry.

I'd be a bit wary Galen, I think if you poured a small amount of water in the crock like a bain-marie, then it might be ok.
