Basic instructions for cooking

In this section you will fi nd basic instruc-
tions for cooking foods which are most
commonly prepared in pressure cookers.
Do not chop or cut food inside the cooker
with a knife or other sharp utensil to avoid
scratching the bottom. For soups and
stocks, do not fi ll pressure cooker over
1/2 full! Remember to ALWAYS use some
cooking liquid. Operating the cooker
without any cooking liquid or allowing the
cooker to boil dry will damage the cooker
and will not allow it to build pressure for
proper functioning.

Fresh and frozen vegetables

• Wash all fresh vegetables thoroughly.
• Peel all root vegetables, such as red
beet, carrots, potatoes and turnips.
• Whole winter pumpkin should be pier-
ced several times with a fork before
cooking.
• When you steam vegetables in the
steamer/pasta basket on the support
trivet you should use at least half a cup
of water.
• If the approximate cooking time is more
than 10 minutes you should use two
cups of water.
• You should never fill the pressure
cooker to more than two thirds of its
capacity.
• When you cook frozen vegetables you
must extend the total cooking time by
between 1 and 2 minutes.
• If possible, use the cold water relea-
se method when the cooking time is
completed. This is the fastest way to
release the steam and will avoid over-
cooking tender vegetables. You can
also use the automatic release method.
