Pressure Cooking Entrees - Presto 01781 Instructions And Recipes Manual

PRessuRe CooKinG enTRees

Try these suggested entrees. Then experiment with entrees of your
own. Entree recipes are cooked at 15 pounds pressure. Always re-
member to select foods that cook in the same length of time. Favorite
recipes may be adjusted to pressure cooking by following the general
directions for the particular type of food being cooked. Decrease the
length of cooking time by two-thirds, since pressure cooking requires
only one-third as much time as ordinary methods of cooking. Decrease
the amount of liquid as there is little evaporation from the canner. Add
about 2 cups more liquid than desired in the finished product.
DO NOT FILL CANNER OVER
These recipes are intended for pressure cooking and should not
be canned.
