          This kitchen item revolutionized the way of cooking at home many years ago, and these are just some of the benefits of preparing your dishes with an Ekco and Presto Pressure Cooker®.  Better flavor Its airtight seal preserves the tastes, flavors, and aromas of all the products you put inside, ensuring nothing delicious you prepare escapes. Better aroma Inside, the steam pressure enhances the aromatic oils that don’t evaporate, providing better flavor to the food. Uniform temperature They reduce evaporation and prevent losses from latent heat of vaporization. This means your preparation will reach a stable and even temperature, so you can be sure it won’t cool down quickly. Better texture The pressure experienced inside a Pressure Cooker® causes the food to soften, so with tough meats like beef or pork, you'll achieve silky results that melt in your mouth. Less time Since the Pressure Cooker® can boil water at a temperature above 100ºC, it reduces the cooking time of your food, allowing you to cook better without wasting time. Healthier The cooking method of a Pressure Cooker® relies on high temperatures and pressure; it has nothing to do with fats, fire, or other elements that could add toxins. Cooking this way is like preparing food by steaming, one of the healthiest cooking methods. Better use Food cooked this way retains its properties better, preventing oxidation and maintaining freshness thanks to the hydration from the cooking method. This means the ingredients remain pristine, and one can better exploit their characteristics. Safety Cooking with a Pressure Cooker® is also very useful for family safety, as the high temperatures reached during cooking eliminate most of the bacteria that may exist in food. Moreover, its airtight nature makes it much safer than alternatives where boiling oil or hot water can pose a risk.   Enjoy all the benefits of cooking with Ekco and Presto Pressure Cookers®.
