Pressure Cooking Charts
Pressure cooking times are approximate times. Use these cooking times as a
general guideline. Size and variety of food will most likely alter cooking times.
Pressure Cooking Vegetables (Fresh & Frozen): To achieve the best results
when pressure cooking fresh or frozen vegetables, please refer to the below tips
and hints:
1. Use the STEAM function when making steamed vegetable dishes.
2. Use the quick release method when pressure cooking vegetables so they do
not overcook.
