Why Use a Pressure Cooker?
This handy cookbook will illustrate how to get the most out of your Electric Pressure Cooker.
Pressure cooking has many advantages over other cooking methods:
Quick Prep Time
Pressure cookers use pressure to cook food
at a higher temperature than what can be
achieved with conventional stovetop boiling,
allowing food to be cooked very quickly. In
fact, pressure cooking is about twice as fast
(sometimes even faster!) as conventional
cooking.
More Nutritious Food
The problem with cooking food using
conventional methods like frying or boiling
is that vital nutrients tend to be lost during
preparation. Pressure cooking, however, is one
of the healthiest cooking methods because
it preserves 90-95% of vitamins contained
in food, according to a study published in
the Journal of Food Science. The increased
speed and heat produced by pressure cooking
essentially ash-cooks vegetables, retaining
more vitamins than boiling (40-75% vitamin
retention rate) or even steaming (75-90%
retention rate).
Eortless Cooking
Using a pressure cooker couldn’t be easier—
add your ingredients and liquid, select a cooking
program, and release the pressure once it’s
done cooking. Best of all, you don’t have to
hover over it while your gourmet food is being
prepared, so you’ll have more free time to relax
after long, stressful days.
Less Mess, Less Stress
Sully your pristine countertops with messy oil
droplets no more—pressure cookers contain
all of the splatters that you’d normally accrue
from conventionally boiling or frying food.
Safe Operation
Pressure cookers employ a comprehensive
network of safety systems designed to prevent
user injuries or product damage. One such
safeguard that the Cosori Electric Pressure
Cooker uses is that it shuts o if it begins to
overheat in order to protect the unit from a
circuit overload or a potential re.
Eco-friendly Eciency
Pressure cookers require less energy to
operate during the cooking process than other
cooking methods. Because pressure cookers
need less heat and time than cooking methods
like stovetop boiling, you can enjoy a whopping
70% energy savings!

Give it Time to Build up Pressure
Recipe cooking times for pressure cookers do
tend to be conveniently short. But before you
shut the lid and immediately start counting
down the minutes that the recipe dictates,
please rst let the pressure cooker build
up the right pressure and give out a beep
(approximately 7-10 minutes). Thus, for your
planning, include enough time for not only the
prep and the cooking time listed in the recipe,
but an additional 7-10 minutes for the cooker
to get its momentum going.
