Pressure cooking - minimum effort, maximum benefits The basic principle of fast cooking has remained unchanged since the invention of the pressure cooker. Cooking takes place in a sealed pot under high pressure, allowing temperatures above 100°C. The pressure inside the cooker raises the boiling point of water, significantly reducing cooking time by up to 70%. By removing harmful oxygen and shortening cooking time, food cooked in a pressure cooker retains more vitamins, minerals, and aromas, resulting in more intense flavors compared to traditional cooking methods. Time saving! Preparing food in a pressure cooker or pressure frying pan is much faster than traditional cooking methods. The high pressure in the sealed cooker raises the boiling point of water, enabling cooking at temperatures from 110 to 116°C. This reduces cooking time by up to 70%! Increased vitamin content in meals! Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant, protecting body cells from harmful free radicals. Shorter cooking times and limited oxygen exposure during preparation help preserve more vitamins and minerals in the finished meal. Vegetables tested: broccoli, potatoes, carrots Vegetables cooked in the pressure cooker contained 21 to 39 percent more vitamin C than conventionally cooked vegetables. Pressure cooking preserved about 90% of vitamin C, while conventional boiling retained only 49%. Higher mineral content! Minerals found in tested vegetables, such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, and others, play a key role in maintaining health. They support cardiovascular, muscular, and nervous system health and regulate hormonal functions. Some facilitate oxygen transport to muscles, others aid strong bone formation, provide energy, and support new cell creation. Additionally, they help maintain proper fluid levels in cells, metabolize nutrients, boost immunity, and aid tissue regeneration. Vegetables tested: broccoli, potatoes, carrots Vegetables cooked in the pressure cooker contained 11 to 26 percent more minerals than conventionally cooked vegetables. Pressure cooking preserves up to 100% of minerals, while conventional cooking retains only 74%. Features 18/10 stainless steel. Durable, easy to FISS
