Vegetables; Cabbage With Apples - Presto 8-Quart Aluminum Instructions Manual

Vegetables have assumed new importance and prominence on the menu. Health-conscious cooks feature an abundance of
vegetables on the family meal plan, while restaurants increasingly cater to a more "vegetable-conscious" clientele.
Pressure cooking is the preferred method for preparing vegetables. Because of the fast cooking time and super-heated steam,
vegetables retain most of their natural color, texture, flavor, and nutrients. And pressure cooking offers an additional health
advantage, because so much more natural taste is retained, vegetables require much less salt and seasonings.
A garden variety of fresh or frozen vegetables can be cooked at the same time in the pressure cooker. By using the cooking
rack to keep them out of the cooking liquid, each vegetable retains its own distinctive flavor and appearance. Just be sure
that all vegetables cooked together require the same cooking time. It is important to accurately time the cooking period,
because vegetables cook very quickly in the pressure cooker. If you wish to blend the vegetable flavors, place them in the
cooking liquid and omit the rack.
