Vegetables

Pressure cooking is a preferred method for preparing vegetables. Because of the fast cooking time and super-heated steam, vegetables retain

mostoftheirnaturalcolor,texture,avor,andnutrients.

FOR FRESH VEGETABLES, DO NOT FILL COOKING POT OVER

⅔ FULL!

Fresh Vegetable Timetable
