Deglazing the inner pot (pressure cooking after sauté)
Sautéing meat and vegetables before pressure cooking is the perfect way to boost
flavors, as sugars caramelize from the high heat of the Sauté Smart Program.
When pressure cooking after using Sauté, deglaze the inner pot to make sure food
items do not scorch.
To deglaze
: Remove food items from the inner pot and add a thin liquid (e.g., water,
broth, wine) to the hot surface. Use a wooden or silicone scraper to loosen anything
that may be stuck to the bottom of the inner pot.
Yogurt
Yogurt is designed to effortlessly produce delicious fermented dairy and non-dairy recipes.
