Introduction<br />
Welcome to the world of pressure cooking. With your new <strong>Presto</strong> ®<br />
Pressure Cooker, you’ll discover how fast and easy it is to prepare<br />
a wide variety of delicious foods—especially foods that emphasize<br />
good health and nutrition along with good taste.<br />
The pressure cooker is perfect for the way we live and eat today.<br />
It’s ideal for preparing many of the lighter foods that help keep us<br />
healthy and fit. It preserves flavors and nutrients, tenderizes leaner<br />
cuts of meat and, best of all, it cooks foods three to ten times<br />
faster than ordinary cooking methods. And, it’s even possible to<br />
cook several foods in the pressure cooker at the same time without<br />
the flavors intermingling.<br />
We have included recipes for some traditional family favorites<br />
that are especially well suited to the many advantages of pressure<br />
cooking. For your convenience, we have also provided nutritional<br />
information for all of the recipes in this book.<br />
To help get started with your new pressure cooker, be sure to read<br />
the “Getting Acquainted” section beginning on page 6.<br />
