A BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO PRESSURE COOKING
A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO
PRESSURE COOKING
Pressure cookers are back in the forefront
again. These time savers are wonderful
for cooking succulent roasts, flavoursome
casseroles, delicious soups and even
desserts in a fraction of the time and energy
they take by conventional methods.
Pressure Cooking is a method of cooking
food in a small amount of liquid with a
gasket sealed lid that retains steam inside
and builds pressure. It is the increase in
pressure that raises temperature of the
liquid and steam inside to well above boiling
point and therefore allows food to be cooked
up to 70% faster.
This means less energy is consumed
and you will enjoy substantial savings
in both time and cost. Because pressure
cooked foods require very little cooking
liquid, more vitamins, minerals, and other
nutrients are retained and the natural
flavours are enhanced.
How to Pressure Cook
1. Place removable cooking bowl into
stainless steel base.
2. Attach clean silicone rubber gasket
securely into gasket holder using the
indicated arrows as a guide. Ensure that
the arrows are facing up when inserting
into the lid.
NOTE
Fit silicone rubber sealing gasket into
lid if not already in place.
3. Place food to be cooked in a 1 litre
(4 cups) minimum liquid into
removable cooking bowl.
