Pork stew in a slow cooker - general principles of cooking
• Pork before stewing should be properly prepared. The pulp is washed in cold water in one piece. After that, dry and carefully inspect. It should not remain small fragments of stones. Then cut all the films and tendon residues with a sharp knife. Fat can not be cut. Make cutting according to the recipe, but if there are no clear instructions, cut at your discretion. To make the pork slices softer, cut the meat perpendicular to the fibers.
• You can stew pork in a slow cooker both independently and with other products. Often vegetables, pineapples or mushrooms, both fresh and dried, are added to the meat.
• The “Quenching” mode on a slow cooker is used not only to prepare pork for a side dish, but also for stand-alone dishes, such as stews, chinakhs, or snack roasts. In a multi-cooker pressure cooker, you can prepare a homemade stew.
• “Multicard” allows you to extinguish meat without much hassle. All that is required for cooking: food, a knife, a cutting board and a few extra pans. Pasteurized stews in cans can be made in a slow cooker on “Stewing”.

• Mushrooms can be replaced with any fresh mushrooms: oyster mushrooms or forest mushrooms.
• Dry mushrooms can not soak, and boil for a quarter of an hour. After that, they should be well decanted mushroom decoction and slightly squeeze.
• If you need to add water to a cooked dish, you can replace it with broth or vegetable broth. It will have a richer taste.
• Prepare home cooked stew only in sterilized cans and cover with sterile caps before pasteurization. If the containers do not fit in your multicooker, pasteurize the stew on the fire.
