REFERENCE TIMES OF COOKING IN THE TESCOMA PROMINENT PRESSURE COOKER
The indicated times of cooking are measured from the moment steam begins to escape
from the operating valve. When this happens, set to low heat. All the indicated times
are for reference only and depend on the ingredients, their quantity, quality, initial
temperature, type of heat source, individual setting of pressure in the pressure cooker,
etc. Deviations from the indicated times might occur; you will determine accurate times
based on your own experience.
