GENERAL INDICATIONS
Pressure cooking is an excellent means
of bringing out the best in fresh, frozen
and dried vegetables, maintainning their
flavor, nutritional value and color.
• This method should always be used
when more than one vegetable is
cooked at the same time (to avoid
mixing flavours). Take care that
cooking times of different vegetables
are very similar.
• Dried vegetables should be saked
prior to cooking.
• Respect cooking times and cool
cooker quickly after cooking for best
results.
• See instruction book for general
cooking times.
• Do not fill cooker more than 2/3 full
or 1/2 if ingredients swell during
cooking.
Season with care as normally less
seasoning is needed.
