WayThe pressure cooker is helpful for everyone from the ladies who go to the liqueur to the housewives who manage the house. It is important for women to properly maintain the pressure cooker to help them finish cooking easily without getting ‘pressure’.
Research by the Italian Journal of Food Science has found that 90 to 95 percent of nutrients are wasted when cooking in a pressure cooker.
Types of Pressure Cooker:
Pressure cookers are made of a wide variety of metals such as aluminum, copper, SS steel, and titanium. Of these, it is best to avoid using a pressure cooker made of aluminum.
Methods of maintaining a pressure cooker:
The rubber hose ‘gasket’ used in the pressure cooker can be removed from the cooker when not in use and placed in the freezer of the refrigerator. Those who do not have this facility can pour water in a wide container and put a ‘gasket’ in it. This will prevent the ‘gasket’ from getting damaged quickly. The gasket needs to be replaced every six months or once a year.
The blockage in the holes in the lid of the pressure cooker should be removed with a small needle and kept clean.
After cooking, transfer the cooked food to another container, wash and dry. It is best to let it dry in the sun for up to 10 minutes.
When cooking in a pressure cooker, only half or three-quarters of it should be cooked. Do not cook until full capacity. The ‘whistle’ should not be blown when the cooker is closed. The whistle should be blown only after the steam has started to come out well. This allows the cooker to run smoothly and last a long time.
Instead of cooking directly in a pressure cooker, it is best to cook with an Ever Silver pot inside.
Open the cooker only after the pressure of the cooker has completely subsided. The screws on the handles on the pressure cooker need to be removed once a month and rubbed with a little coconut oil to prevent rusting.
Also make sure that the screws are in place from time to time. Avoid using the pressure cooker after its expiration date. Doing so is likely to result in risk.
