How does a pressure cooker work?

A pressure cooker expedites cooking by trapping steam inside a tightly sealed pot, dramatically raising the internal pressure and consequently elevating the water's boiling point above standard levels. This permits food to cook faster and more uniformly as the heightened pressure forces moisture deeply into ingredients, rendering them tender and richly flavoured.

How to use a pressure cooker?

Using a pressure cooker is straightforward. Begin by adding the requisite amount of liquid to the cooker online, placing your ingredients inside, and securing the lid tightly. Set the cooker on the stove or induction cooktop, allowing pressure to gradually build. Once the desired pressure is reached, reduce the heat and let flavours develop for the time recommended. After cooking concludes, release built-up pressure through the valve or permit natural release before opening the lid.

Which pressure cooker is best for daily cooking?

A pressure cooker ranging from 3 to 5 litres crafted from durable stainless steel or hard-anodised aluminium proves ideal for everyday use. These materials ensure consistent performance over the long run, while the moderate size accommodates most family meals.

Which pressure cooker material is good for health?

Stainless steel remains the healthiest material for pressure cookers, as it neither leeches harmful chemicals into nourishment nor reacts adversely with acidic foods, guaranteeing meals are both safe and nutritious to consume. Hard-anodised aluminium also constitutes a sound option thanks to its resistance to corrosion and non-reactivity with flavours. Additionally, the Triply material won't disappoint. It promotes even heat distribution and allows food to be cooked quickly without compromising on nutrition and flavours.
