How Do You Convert Old Recipes For Electric Pressure Cooker?
An electric pressure cooker can allow you to enjoy your favorite recipes in a fraction of the time. Pressure cookers trap steam created during cooking and allows it to build up inside the cooker and cause pressure. These appliances can be extremely convenient for busy families who would like to enjoy homemade foods but don’t have time to prepare recipes using the oven or stovetop. Plan to experiment with your recipes a few times to perfect their preparation in a pressure cooker. Reduce the liquid in the recipe by half. Stove top and conventional oven recipes use more liquid to accommodate for evaporation during cooking; this does not occur in a pressure cooker. If halving the liquid reduces it to less than 1/2 cup, add 1/2 cup of water to produce the steam necessary during pressure cooking. Eliminate the following foods from your pressure cooker recipes: cranberries, applesauce, pearl barley, cereals including oatmeal, split peas, pasta and rhubarb. These foods can foam during pressure
