SUGGESTED COOKING TIMES AND TIPS
• You can easily adapt your favorite recipes with the cooker. The amount of liquid needed will be
much less than traditional cooking methods. In general, pressure cooking time will be 1/3 to ½ less
than traditional cooking method and reduce the amount of liquid by at least half.
•
More nutrients are preserved with pressure cooking than traditional cooking as less liquid is used.
• When cooking meat and poultry, add at least 1 cup of liquid for pressure cooking up to 45 minutes
and 1 ½ cups if longer.
• If food is almost but not completely cooked (after pressure release), use Reheat function to
complete cooking.
• Remember pressure cooking requires 10 to 40 minutes of preheating for pressure to build.
