Certain food (such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal, split peas, noodles,
etc.) can foam, froth, or spatter, and can clog the steam release pipe and/or steam
release valve. Extreme caution must be used when cooking and venting these
foods—the inner pot should not be filled higher than the — 1/2 line.
When pressure cooking food with a doughy or thick texture, or a high fat/oil content,
contents may spatter when opening the lid. Please follow recipe instructions for pressure
release method. Once pressure is fully released, gently rock the cooker back and forth on
its feet, then if necessary, release the steam again before removing the lid.
There needs to be at least 1½ cups (375mL / 12oz) of liquid in the inner pot (unless
otherwise specified in your recipe), so enough steam can be generated to pressurize the
unit.
Acceptable liquids include water, broth, stock, wine, beer, fruit juice, vegetable juice,
and thin cooking sauces. Cooking liquids must be water-based.
Oils and oil-based sauces do not have enough water content to bring the pressure
cooker to pressure— avoid recipes that call for the use of more than ¼ cup of oil or
fat content.
Thick sauces should be diluted, keeping in mind that some of the added liquid will
be turned into steam for pressurization; sauces should be fairly thin in consistency
before cooking begins.
When cooking meat with skin (e.g. sausage with casing), the skin can swell when heated.
Do not pierce the skin as long as it is swollen; this could result in scalding injury.
When cooking Sous Vide, season lightly —a little goes a long way! Use less salt than you
might normally, especially with meats, poultry, and fish. If your dish requires additional
seasoning, salt to taste after cooking. Use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic
or garlic salt.

You can make changes during the Cook cycle of any Smart Program.
Touch the field you want to change: Pressure, Temperature, Keep Warm, or Venting and
