For years, the pressure cooker has been a lifeline for housewives who not only have to get the dish ready but also clean the house.

It is used for cooking foods that require more time for cooking and is a very easy way of preparing meals.

The pressure cooker was first created in 1679 which created a pot with an insulated lid for quick cooking.

Over the years, the pressure cooker models became more diverse and different in shape.

 

How does a pressure cooker work?

In a pressure cooker, the boiling point of the water increases significantly.

When the water is too hot and the steam is isolated, it reaches a very high boiling point of up to 120 C.

This high temperature speeds up the cooking of food.

Is cooking with a pressure cooker healthy?

Many people believe that pressure cooker cooking is not healthy due to high pressure and temperature. Studies say that cooking in a pressure cooker is the best way to store beta carotene and ascorbic acid in spinach. Other studies explain that cooking broccoli in this pot retains 90% of vitamin C.

Steam cooking and cooking retain 78% and 66% of vitamin C, respectively.

Sipas ekspertëve, ruajtja e ushqyesve tek ushqimet e gatuara me presion të lartë i atribuohet kohës së shkurtuar të gatimit. Kjo do të thotë se pavarësisht se ushqimet gatuhen në temperaturë të lartë vlimi, koha e gatimit është shumë më e shkurtër për të mundësuar shkatërrimin e plotë të ushqyesve.

Përpos të tjerave, ushqyesit lëshohen në ujë por në gjellën me presion nevoja për ujë është më e vogël se në një tenxhere tjetër.

Kësisoj, ushqyesit ruhen në nivele të larta.

 

A mund të gatuhen fasulet në tenxhere me presion?

Ekspertët thonë që tenxherja me presion përbën mënyrën më të mirë të gatimit të fasuleve dhe legumeve në veçanti.

Këto të fundit shkaktojnë probleme me tretjen por kur gatuhen me presion të lartë, përbërësit që shkaktojnë probleme me tretjen shuhen ndjeshëm.

The pressure cooker makes vegetables more soluble and preserves their nutritional value.
