The settings BROWN/SEAR & SAUTÉ do not cook under
pressure. They work similarly to standard cooking, requiring dry
heat, and therefore do not need the Lid. Place the Cooker on a
flat, level surface. Do not use the Lid with this function.
The BROWN/SEAR (BROWN/SEAR on LOW) function is
designed to brown meats for casseroles and soups. Browning
meat prior to pressure cooking and slow cooking not only gives
your food great color, but it also seals in the flavorful juices and
keeps the meat tender.
The SAUTÉ (SAUTÉ on LOW) function is designed to sauté
onions and mirepoix (mixture of chopped onion, carrot, and
celery), among many other foods, often used in pressure
cooker and slow cooker recipes. Sautéing onions allows
caramelization which contributes to the flavor and color in the
end dish.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Cooker into a
wall outlet. The Cooker will beep, and the Display Screen will
illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Select the BROWN/SEAR or SAUTÉ functions and adjust
the time and temperature if necessary, using the + and -
buttons.
2. Press START/STOP.
3. When the Cooker is pre-heating, “HEAt” will appear on
the Display Screen. The Status Bar will illuminate to track
the preheat progress before cooking will begin. When the
temperature has been reached, the timer will start counting
down. Using plastic tongs, carefully add your food to the
hot pot.
Capacity: When the Cooker is used to brown or sauté it
may be best to cook in batches to ensure the food is evenly
cooked.
