The Cuisinart Cook Central 3-in-1 Multicooker The MSC-400 Cuisinart
Multicooker Create one-pot meals your family will love with the Cuisinart Cook
Central 3-in-1 Multicooker. Three fully programmable cooking functions let you
sauté vegetables, brown meats and slow cook your favorite comfort foods right
in the unit. Skip the stovetop with combination cooking — brown your
ingredients in the unit and then simply switch to the slow cook function. Use
the Cook Central to prep any aspect of your favorite dish. Select the steam
function to prepare stuffed artichokes to start a gourmet meal or to create a
healthful vegetable medley side dish. The Cook Central can even do dessert.
With numerous recipes to choose from in the included booklet, the
opportunities are endless! The Cook Central features Cuisinart’s brushed
stainless steel housing and a 4-quart nonstick cooking pot that lets you brown
or sauté directly in the unit. Once your meal is ready, the unit will
automatically shift to Keep Warm mode so your meal is ready when you are.
Serving your dish is easy — just lift the pot out and take it to the table.
Clean-up is a breeze with the Cook Central as the pot, steaming rack and glass
lid are dishwasher-safe. Multi-FunctionalThe first step to creating your meal
with the Cook Central is selecting the cooking function. Slow CookSlow cooking
is perfect for foods that require long, slow simmering, such as soups, stocks,
stews, and dried beans. This function is also ideal when cooking tougher and
less expensive cuts of meat like shoulder and pot roast. The Slow Cook
function has three temperature settings — High, Low, and Simmer. For recipes
that need to cook longer, use the Simmer and Low settings. When starting a
dish later in the day, select the High setting. A 24-hour timer and automatic
Keep Warm mode ensure your food is ready to eat when you are. Brown or sauté
with temperatures up to 400 degrees F. Use the extra-large steaming rack to
steam vegetables. Slow cook on your schedule with programmable settings.
SteamSteaming is one of the healthiest methods of cooking. No butter or oil is
required and fewer nutrients are lost in the steaming process. To steam
anything from asparagus to shrimp, insert the included steaming rack and no
more than 1 quart of water or other liquid in the cooking pot and cover with
the lid. Once steaming is complete, carefully remove food from the pot with a
spoon, fork or tongs and enjoy. Brown/SautéUse the Brown/Sauté function as you
would a skillet or sauté pan on the stovetop for a variety of recipes. Prepare
a quickly sautéed skillet dish or brown food right in the pot as the first
step of your family’s favorite slow cooker recipe. You can use this function
to reheat foods as well. Just use Brown/Sauté at 350 degrees F and stir until
all ingredients are warmed through. Once you have chosen the cooking function
that best fits your recipe, simply set the desired time and temperature, and
then press Start. Features and BenefitsGlass Lid with HandleCheck the progress
