FOODS:
Cooking frozen food inside a pressure cooker is quick and easy but has certain restrictions.
Only cook individual cuts of frozen meats that are up to 1 inch thick, the cooking time
does not need to be altered. Pressure will not be achieved until the internal temperature
has reached a preset level. If the recipe states the meat should be cooked for 10 minutes
after pressure has been achieved, it will still be the same, but it will take longer to reach
the required pressure point.
It is not recommended to pressure cook larger cuts of frozen meats such as a whole roast,
a block of frozen ground meat or a whole chicken. Larger cuts will require increased
cooking times of up to one third more, and the results may not be the same when
compared to meats that were thawed (or at least partially thawed) and browned before
cooking.
