Product Description
-------------------
.com This is not your grandmother's pressure cooker. After two
generations of busy cooks employed pressure cookers to prepare
family meals, the next generation with memories of valves dancing
and hissing on stove-tops then snubbed pressure cookers. Now
pressure cookers have come back, those old valves replaced by
modern versions that ensure safety while delivering the speed,
ease, and tional benefits of pressure cooking. This
heavyweight 18/10 stainless-steel beauty is a fine example of
contemporary engineering and style. Its mirror finish gleams, and
its black handles stay cool. Its spring valve doesn't hiss unless
too much steam has built up and the heat needs turning down. Two
other valves offer backup safety, and the top automatically locks
until all pressure has been released. Pressure-cooking traps
steam to heat foods at temperatures higher than boiling. This
cooker has an aluminum disk sandwiched by stainless steel in its
base to speed the process even more through fast heat
conductivity. Little water is required, so ents, flavor, and
color are not boiled away. At 9.75 inches diameter and 3 inches
deep, this 2-1/2-liter (2.65-quart) cooker resembles a deep
frying pan. A waffle pattern on the bottom releases food quickly
after browning. Cleanup is a bit involved: hand wash the cooker,
rubber ket, and lid with a mild detergent; lightly oil the
ket. Minor cleaning inconvenience, however, should not
overshadow the major convenience of pressure cooking.
Accompanying the cooker is a 92-page pressure-cooking recipe
booklet. --Fred Brack From the Manufacturer Whether you are
cooking soups, meat, vegetables or potatoes, or even sterilising
babies bottles, everything is more relaxed with the Kuhn Rikon
Duromatic pressure cooker and itis up to 3 times faster than
conventional cooking methods too. Risotto in 7 minutes? Cr�me
Caramel in 10 minutes? No problem with the Duromatic. This 2.5
litre Kuhn Rikon Inox Pressure Frying Pan with long handle has a
timeless design, is easy to use and is a practical classic. The
aluminium heat-conducting base is especially thick and ensures
rapid and even heat absorption on all heat sources, including
induction. Three safety release systems and stay cool plastic
fittings are all included in the design for your safety in the
modern busy kitchen. The interior of the pan features � and 2/3
fill level indicators. You can brown meats in the pan before the
lid is locked on, or use the pan without the lid. Easy
positioning triangles allow you to close the lid with the minimum
of fuss, whilst all models in the Duromatic range feature the
fully-automatic locking system which prevents opening while there
is still pressure in the cooker. As the food begins to boil, any
air present in the pressure cooker will firstly escape through
the spring-loaded pressure valve and then the valve cap will move
up. The pressure indication lines become visible and you are able
to cook effortlessly at low (0.4 bar) or high (0.8 bar) pressure
by adjusting the heat. You can then just enjoy the peace and
quiet and once your food inside is ready, the pressure can be
released in three safe and easy ways. Cooking with the Duromatic
takes about 1/3 of the usual cooking time, with an energy saving
of up to 70%. This saves you money and is also good for the
environment. s are sealed in, instead of boiled away,
