    Hi all

    I have a small MR SC and it has 3 heat settings...

    Low
    High
    Warm

    I am confused... Is 'Warm' cooler than Low? or is it Medium?

    Is it just me or is that a bit confusing?

    Warm is to keep the cooked food warm, like if you are going to eat it 30 minutes to an hour after it has finished cooking.

    Hi Masha

    I am pretty sure it is to keep the food warm (rather than cooking it ) to serve. What make is it and I can see if we can find the instructions online? :)

    Hi
    I have beef left over from todays roast and was thinking of chucking it in the sc tomorrow with some new potatoes and veg, for the kids. Anyway then had a hankering for some dumplings, but was wondering how long before the end of cooking time do I need to put them in. And also as I'll be at work can I make the dumplings up in the morning and put them in the fridge for dh to stick in?

    Thanks so much
    p.s I love this board:smileyhea
