VEGETABLE COOKING GUIDE
Vegetables should be well washed and peeled if necessary. Vegetables cook very quickly –
be sure to press STOP and use Quick Pressure Release immediately after audible beep
sounds. If vegetables require more cooking, turn multicooker off, and cover to steam the
vegetables until preferred texture is reached. Add ½ cup water or liquid for cooking. If
pressure cooking frozen vegetables, 1 to 2 minutes additional cooking time and longer
steaming time may be needed. When cooking vegetables, it is always best to undercook,
then allow additional time to steam – to avoid overcooking. All cooking is on High pressure
unless otherwise indicated.
