General Pressure Cooking

1. เพิ่มส่วนผสม: Place food and the required amount of liquid into the pressure cooker. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
2. ฝาปิดที่ปลอดภัย: Place the lid on the cooker, aligning the arrows or indicators, and rotate until it locks securely. Ensure the handles are properly engaged.
3. การให้ความร้อน: Place the cooker on a high heat setting. Steam will begin to escape from the vent pipe.
4. การสะสมแรงดัน: Once a steady stream of steam is released, place the selected pressure regulator weight onto the vent pipe. The pressure indicator will rise, and the regulator will begin to jiggle or rock, indicating that the desired pressure has been reached.
5. เวลาในการปรุงอาหาร: Reduce heat to the lowest setting that maintains a steady jiggle or rocking motion of the pressure regulator. Begin timing according to your recipe.
6. การปล่อยแรงดัน: After cooking, turn off the heat. Allow pressure to release naturally (NPR) or use the quick release method if specified by the recipe. Never remove the pressure regulator or open the lid until the pressure indicator has fully dropped.

กระป๋องแรงดัน

This pressure cooker doubles as a canner, ideal for low-acid foods. Always refer to tested canning recipes and guidelines from reputable sources (e.g., USDA Extension). Ensure jars are clean and free from defects.

2. ใส่เครื่องกระป๋อง: Place the canning rack(s) at the bottom of the cooker. Arrange jars on the rack, ensuring they do not touch each other or the sides of the cooker.
3. เติมน้ำ: Add 2-3 inches of hot water to the canner, or as specified by your canning recipe. Do not pour water directly onto jars.
4. กระบวนการ: Follow the general pressure cooking steps above, using the pressure and processing times specified in your canning recipe for your altitude.
5. คลายความร้อน: After processing, turn off heat and allow pressure to drop naturally. Do NOT quick release pressure when canning, as this can cause liquid loss from jars. Once pressure is fully released, carefully remove the lid.
6. นำขวดโหลออก: Using a jar lifter, carefully remove hot jars and place them on a towel-lined surface, leaving space between them to cool for 12-24 hours.
