HONESDALE (Wayne Co.)
One form of cooking that recently
made its way back is slow cook
ing. Slow cooking took a giant
leap forward in the seventies with
the introduction of the electric
slow cooker.

top shelf of the cupboard.
Today’s slow cookers have
removable linings for easy clean
ing and multiple heat settings.
Some automatically shift from
high to low heat, a nice food
safety feature. Even with these
