PRESSURE COOKING ENTREES

Try these suggested entrees. Then experiment with entrees of your own. Entree recipes are cooked at 15 pounds pressure. Always remem- ber to select foods that cook in the same length of time. Favorite recipes may be adjusted to pressure cooking by following the general directions for the particular type of food being cooked. Decrease the length of cooking time by two-thirds, since pressure cooking requires only one-third as much time as ordinary methods of cooking. Decrease the amount of liquid as there is little evaporation from the canner. Add about 2 cups more liquid than desired in the finished product.

DO NOT FILL CANNER OVER TWO-THIRDS FULL!

These recipes are intended for pressure cooking and should not be canned.
