REFERENCE TIMES OF COOKING IN THE PRESTO PRESSURE COOKER
The indicated times of cooking are measured from the moment steam begins to escape from the operating
valve. When this happens, set to low heat. All the indicated times are for reference only and depend on the
ingredients, their quantity, quality, initial temperature, type of heat source, individual setting of pressure
in the pressure cooker, etc. Deviations from the indicated times might occur; you will determine accurate
times based on your own experience.
