desserTs
Desserts may be prepared in oven-safe custard cups or any metal mold which will fit loosely in the pressure cooker. Fill molds only ⅔
full to allow for expansion of food. Cover securely with aluminum foil shaped to the sides of the mold. Place the mold or custard cups on
the cooking rack in the cooker. Up to six custard cups of dessert can be pressure cooked at a time. Place three custard cups on cooking
rack. Then, stack the other three custard cups opposite the bottom three custard cups.
To test custards for doneness, insert a knife into the center. If the knife comes out clean, it is done. If not, it will be necessary to bring the
cooker back up to pressure and cook the custard a minute or two longer.
Do not cook applesauce, cranberries, or rhubarb in the pressure cooker.
FOR DESSERTS, DO NOT FILL PRESSURE COOKER OVER
