Useful General Information
Principles of Pressure Cooking
Ordinary open-pot cooking is done at the boiling point of water
which produces steam at sea level at 100
o
C (212
o
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, tenderizing it, infusing it with flavour, preserving nutrients,
colour, texture and juices and cooking much faster. The Hawkins
Ventura Pressure Cooker cooks food at 121
o
C (250
o
F) at a pressure of
15 lb per square inch (1 kg per square cm).
Benefits of Hawkins Ventura Pressure Cooking
This Manual, your Hawkins Ventura Pressure Cooker and your own
skill will enable you to produce delicious and nutritious food quickly,
easily and economically.
Faster Cooking. Hawkins Ventura cooking can reduce normal
cooking times by as much as half. Economical foods
such as legumes
(lentils, dried peas and beans) and tougher cuts of meat can be
cooked to perfection in a fraction of the normal time.
Fuel Saving. Because food cooks faster in a pressure cooker, you
save fuel, and therefore money.
More Healthful. 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.
More Hygienic. The higher temperature in Ventura cooking (121
o
C
or 250
o
F) ensures completely hygienic food. The Ventura can even be
used for sterilizing.

evokes the natural flavours of the food – producing delicious results.
Versatile. Your Hawkins Ventura cooks a wide range of foods.
Whether parts of recipes or entire meals, the Ventura can be a
trusted, indispensable help in the kitchen.
Advantages of Hawkins Ventura
Safe
•
Pressure-locked Safety Lid. When there is pressure inside the
cooker, the lid is pressure-locked like a modern jetliner door. It
cannot be opened until the pressure has fallen to a safe level.
•
Automatic Safety Valve is positioned such that, if it operates,
the steam and food are deflected safely downwards.
•
Automatic Air Ventile expels air automatically before cooking –
your food is cooked in pure steam. Cooking in pure steam is
faster and also safer because the safety valve works at the right
time when required. The air ventile is a handy visual indicator of
pressure inside the cooker.
Fast
•
Black Hard Anodised Base absorbs heat quickly and evenly,
resulting in faster cooking and more fuel saving; will not tarnish,
pit or corrode.
