Principles of Pressure Cooking
Ordinary open-pot cooking is done at the boiling point of water
which produces steam at sea level at 100°C (212°F). Pressure cooking
works by sealing the steam in a pot so that there is a rise in pressure to
a safe, controlled extent which raises the boiling point of water and
therefore the cooking temperature. The steam permeates through the
food, tenderising it, infusing it with flavour, preserving nutrients, colour,
texture and juices and cooking much faster. The Futura Pressure Cooker
cooks food at 121°C (250°F) at a pressure of 15 lb per square inch
(1 kg per square cm).
Benefits of Futura Pressure Cooking
Futura pressure cooking can reduce normal cooking times by as
much as half. Economical foods such as legumes (lentils, dried peas
and beans) and tough cuts of meat can be cooked to perfection in a
fraction of the normal time. Because food cooks faster in a pressure
cooker, you save fuel, and therefore money. Scientific literature indicates
that certain nutritive elements such as proteins and vitamins are better
retained by pressure cooking. Steaming is ideal for low-calorie, low-fat
cooking. The higher temperature while pressure cooking gives more
hygienic food. Closed cooking in steam under pressure may better evoke
the natural flavours of the food – producing delicious results. A wide
range of foods, whether parts of recipes or entire meals, can be cooked
in your Futura.
