Smart Programs: Non Air Frying
Sauté
The Sauté Smart Program is similar to using a frying pan, griddle, or flat-top grill.
Use Sauté to simmer, reduce and thicken liquids, stir-fry meals, and to caramelize
vegetables and sear meat before or after cooking.
Sautéing meat and vegetables before pressure cooking is the perfect way to
boost flavors, and deglazing can help give your recipes extra depth. Refer to
for details.
