Simmering
In an electric skillet, foods simmer at some point between WARM and
200°. Heat the skillet at 350° until the food boils; place cover on, and
reduce the heat by turning the heat control down until the pilot light
goes out. Add additional liquid during cooking, if necessary, to obtain
desired consistency.
Braising or Pot Roasting
This cooking method involves browning food, usually meat or vegetables
in oil, butter, margarine, etc., and then simmering in a small amount of
liquid over low heat. To brown meat and/or vegetables, use a temperature
between 325° and 350°. After browning, simmer as instructed above.
