Stir occasionally when heating up purees, creamy
soups and thick sauces.

For preheating, select a heat setting between

When cooking with the lid on, reduce the heat as
soon as you see steam escaping. The cooking
result is not affected by the steam escaping.

After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until
you serve the food.

To cook with the pressure cooker, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.

the optimum cooking time.

For a healthier result, ensure that the oil does not
smoke.
