How to use a pressure cooker

Sometimes we refuse to use a pressure cooker because we think it's dangerous, but they are actually very useful tools that help us save time and gas. I share my secret so you can learn how to use a pressure cooker to cook like an expert.

Step by Step

1
For this tip you need:• A pressure cooker• The ingredients for the recipe you want to prepare
2
Place the ingredients of your recipe inside the pot.
3
Add liquid, but make sure not to exceed the maximum mark on the pot (approximately 2/3).
4
Check that the seal is properly placed and free of damage, as this could cause your pot to malfunction.
5
Turn the heat to high, close, and secure the lid.
6
When steam begins to escape, lower the heat and place the pressure regulator carefully to avoid burns from the steam.
7
When the safety valve rises, start timing the cooking, which will depend on the dish you are preparing. (find cooking times for different dishes here:Cooking times in the Express Pot®)
8
After the cooking time has passed, remove from heat. Wait for the steam to stop before removing the pressure regulator.
9
When the safety valve drops, it is safe to remove the lid.
