Page 6: Introduction And Benefits
INTRODUCTION AND BENEFITS The structure of a pressure cooker consists of a regular cooking pot and a special lid that locks in place on the top of the cook pot. When the cooker is heated, steam is sealed inside and creates pressure. With this high pressure, the internal temperature of the cooker is raised above the normal boiling point of water, which leads to a faster and healthier cooking process. 1 Faster ·On average, the NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker prepares food up to 3 times faster than conventional cooking methods. Meals that can take up to one hour with conventional cooking can be ready in as little as 20 minutes with a NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker. 2 Tastier · Food tastes better when prepared with a NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker. The shorter cooking time allows food to retain its full and natural flavor. Less seasoning is required, up to half of what you would normally use, and very little flavor is actually lost during the cooking process. · Unlike microwave cooking, meat prepared in a NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker is golden brown. Simply sauté, then cook under pressure. 3 Healthier · More Vitamins and minerals are retained in food prepared with a NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker. The NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker can help food retain more than twice their vitamins and nutrients compared to conventional stovetop cooking, by using less water. 4 MultiFunctional · The NuWave Precision Pressure Cooker can be used for steaming, simmering, stewing, roasting and even defrosting. Cooking time is saved when preparing everything from delicate soups and desserts to hearty meat dishes. -
