Steaming with the pressure cooker

14

Fill the pan with sufficient liquid to generate the necessary 

steam (water, sauce or stock).

WARNING: always add adequate liquid. NEVER let the 

pressure cooker “cook dry”.

Now add the cooking material.

Liquid and food to be cooked should fill at least 1/3 of the 

pot `s capacity.

Maximum 1/2 full for foods that expand or tend to foam.

Maximum 2/3 full for all other foods.

Please observe the filler scale inside the pan.

Please  check  that  there  is  adequate  space  between  the 

food to be cooked and the lid with safety valves.

Note:

So that the base of the cooker is not corroded by salt, you 

should only add salt to water which is already boiling, and 

stir it gently.

Now put the lid on the cooker.

To do this, place the lid on the cooker so that in such way 

that the locking markings are opposite each other and slide 

lid  and  cooker  handles  one  above  the  other.  The  sliding 

locking-catch clicks into place.

The steam insert:

Put the wire stand onto the bottom of the pot and place the 

steam insert onto the stand. Pour just enough liquid into the 

pot so that its level will just be under the insert. Foodstuffs 

meant  for  stewing  or  steaming  may  now  be  put  into  the 

insert and will cook through the flow of developing vapour.

The foodstuffs will remain tender and juicy by this method 

of  preparing  it.  Using  the  steam  insert  is  significantly 

contributing  towards  a  healthier  diet  because  water-

soluble  vitamins  and  nutrients  will  be  preserved  and  by
