Releasing Pressure After Cooking

Always check your recipe to determine if the pressure cooker should be cooled down naturally or whether the quick release method should be used. The Elite pressure cooker also features an automatic release position on the automatic valve that can be used for releasing pressure automatically when cooking foods such as stews, meats, poultry, soups. Do not use for vegetables or tender foods as this will result in overcooking.

1.Natural Release Method: To use this method, remove the pressure cooker from the hot burner and let the pressure drop and cool down naturally. Depending on the amount of food and liquid in the cooker, this method can take from 10 to 15 minutes. Once the pressure has been released completely and the pressure indicator has dropped, go to step # 4 in this section.

2.Cold Water Release Method: this method is used to release pressure as quickly as possible, and is primarily used for vegetables, seafood and other tender foods that can quickly overcook. To use this method, remove the pressure cooker from the burner, place in the sink and run cold tap water gently over the lid until steam dissipates and the pressure indicator is lowered (Fig 11). When putting the cooker in the sink, tilt it so the cold water will run down the sides of the cooker. Once the pressure has been released completely and the pressure indicator has dropped, go to step # 4 in this section.

NEVER IMMERSE THE PRESSURE COOKER IN WATER.

3.Automatic Release Method: When using the automatic release method, turn the dial on the operating valve to the steam release position (steam drawing position, fig. 8), and the steam will be released automatically. Once the steam has totally been released and the pressure indicator has dropped, go to #4 in this section (below).

4.After all the pressure has been released and the yellow pressure indicator has dropped, slide the pressure cooker lock down towards the end of the handle (fig. 5). Hold the pot handle with your left hand and slide the lid handle to the right with your right hand. Even though you have already released the pressure, never open the pressure cooker towards your face since there may be intense cooking steam still inside the unit. To avoid the risk of scalding, let the droplets of condensed water drip back from the lid into the cooker.
