Thinking of getting your own Electromaster electric pressure cooker? Here’s what you have to look forward to.

Food Cooks Faster When

Cooking time is greatly reduced as foods cook up to 70% faster when a pressure cooker is used, making it a handy tool to quickly get the meal on the table. Because more steam and energy are held inside the pressure cooker than in conventional pots, the cooking process proceeds more quickly.

Here are the cook times for the following foods:

Beef – 30mins
Guru – 45 mins

This gives you the peace of mind to set-and-forget your dinner so you have more time to yourself, rather than standing over the stove.

Convenience

Another advantage of an electric pressure cooker is that there’s no need to hover over the stove, adjusting the heat to prevent a boil-over. So you can go play with your kids, pay bills, or watch TV while the pressure cooker does all the work.

Fewer of the food's nutrients and vitamins are lost during the pressure cooking process, making meals healthier than those made with conventional pots and pans. This is because pressure cookers lock in more of the goodness than regular cookware.

Once you learn how to handle the pressure cooker, there is absolutely nothing to fear. Even when the steam has been released, be in the habit of keeping your face away from the pot opening to avoid any residual steam or hot splatters. Put a towel down on the counter surface for setting the hot lid after removing it.
