Pressure cooking with alpha

Before cooking

Before each occasion on which it is used, check that the safety valve,

pressure regulator and sealing ring are all clean and working properly.

Pay particular attention to the safety valve on the underside of the lid.

The pin should be checked with the ﬁ nger for freedom of movement

(against spring pressure) before each cooking process.

Add the necessary liquid for steam generation (water, gravy or stock)

to the pot – a minimum of about 250-300 ml, no matter how much

food is to be cooked.

Warning:

always add sufﬁ cient liquid. The pot must not be allowed

to cook dry.

Now add the food to be cooked.

Liquid and food together must ﬁ ll at least 1/3 of the volume of the pot.

Maximum 1/2-full for foods which swell or tend to foam, maximum

2/3-full for all other foods. Please observe the ﬁ lling scale in the pot.

MAX

MIN

Note

To avoid the base of the pot being attacked, only add salt to water

which is already boiling and stir it in. Now you can put the lid on.

Hold both buttons pressed and set it down straight on the pot. The

jaws snap audibly into place and the control arrows are no longer

seen.

The steamer insert

(Not supplied, but available as an accessory.)

Place the steamer insert on the base of the pot. Add liquid up to the

ﬂ oor of the steamer. Food which is to be steamed can now be placed

in the steamer and will cook in the steam generated.

This method of preparation keeps the food tender and juicy. Using

the steamer insert makes a valuable contribution to healthier nutrition.

Since water-soluble vitamins and nutrients are preserved, steaming

is strongly recommended in connection with calorie-conscious diets.

Pressure cooking is so easy

Select the required pressure, using the pressure regulator: see the table

of cooking times on pages 18/19.

Set the required pressure

Position 1 = gentle cooking

For steaming delicate foods such as vegetables or fish

Position 2 = fast cooking

Fast cooking stage for cooking and braising e.g. meat,

soups, stews, ...

Pressure cooking with alpha

Set the hotplate on its highest setting

Place the pressure cooker with preset pressure setting on a suitable

hotplate and set this on its highest setting.

As pressure increases, the red safety valve becomes visible. Now the

pot can no longer be opened.

According to how full the pot is, it will take a few minutes for it to reach

the set pressure. This is as soon as steam escapes continuously from

the pressure regulator.

This is the moment at which the cooking time starts.

Now the hotplate must be turned down low. You thus avoid using

unnecessary energy as well as the danger of the pot boiling dry.
