Pressure cooker recipes


 

A pressure cooker is the surest way to quick and healthy meals. When following the instruction manual, the pressure cooker is a safe bet. It is the best way to cheaper meals too as food cooks quickly under pressure thereby saving fuel. 


Here are a few tips that can be followed in successfully handling a pressure cooker: 

  • Always use a cooker with sufficient quantity of water.

  •  
  • Ensure that the vent tube is free of blockage before closing the lid
  •  
  • Place the weight only when steam comes out steadily through the vent tube
  •  
     
  • Store the cooker with its lid open to prevent mustiness
  •  
     
  • Check the valve seat for clogged food particles; clean after every use
  •  
  • After every use, hang out the gasket on a peg till the next use. This helps it last longer.
  •  
     
  • To release pressure quickly, place the cooker in the sink; run cold water over it to cool it and hence reduce the pressure.
