SUGGESTED COOKING TIMES
The following cooking times are provided as a guide to be used
when cooking in the FARBERWARE
®
Programmable Electric
Pressure Cooker. Cooking times can vary depending on the quality
and the individual piece sizes of the food being cooked; maximum
and minimum cooking times are given in some instances. When
uncertain how long to cook something, always start with the
shortest cooking time since you can always continue cooking for an
additional couple of minutes until the desired texture is reached.
All cooking times listed begin once full pressure is reached.
