3.Position the pressure cooker on the center of the stove burner. The Elite Pressure Cooker can be used on all types of burners including gas, electric, ceramic and induction. As to not discolor the sides of the pot, always adjust the burner so that when using gas, the flames remain under the base and do not extend up the sides. When cooking on an electric burner, select a burner the same diameter as the base or smaller.

4.Begin heating with the burner set on high heat (ELECTRIC STOVE USERS –SEE BELOW). When the pressure indicator has risen and steam starts to come out of the operating valve for first time, lower the heat to maintain a gentle, steady stream of steam. At this moment, the COOKING TIME STARTS and you have to start timing you recipe. It is recommended that a kitchen timer be used to monitor the exact cooking time.

5.If at any time during cooking an excessive amount of steam is released by the operating valve, lower the burner heat to adjust and maintain the proper level of pressure. The steam should come out in a gentle, steady flow. If the steam is gushing or very forceful, lower the heat.

6.If the pressure drops or there is no steam coming out of the operating valve, raise the burner heat just until a gentle, steady stream of steam is released and can be maintained.

7.While cooking, never inadvertently shake the pressure cooker. This can cause the automatic valve to release steam, which will create a drop in pressure.

NOTE TO ELECTRIC STOVE USERS Since the coils on an electric stove retain heat for a long time, food often becomes overcooked when the burner is turned down for simmering (when cooking time is started). To compensate for that, you have two options:

1.Two Burner Method: Turn on two electric stove burners, one on high and other on low. Place your pressure cooker on the burner set to high, and bring to pressure. Once pressure has been achieved, move your cooker over to the burner set on low and start your pressure cooking time. Make sure the burner is not too low; there should always be some steam coming out of the operating valve. If there is no more steam coming out of the operating valve and/or the pressure indicator drops, raise the heat until steam starts coming out of the operating valve, and adjust the cooking time by 1 or 2 minutes.

2.One Burner Method: Turn on one burner to medium heat and bring your cooker to pressure. Once pressure has been achieved and steam starts to come out of the operating valve, turn your burner to low and start your pressure cooking time. Make sure you don’t lower your heat too much; there should always be some steam coming out of the operating valve. If there is no more steam coming out of the operating valve and/or the pressure indicator drops, raise the heat until steam starts coming out of the operating valve, and adjust the cooking time by 1 or 2 minutes.
