Pressure Cooker

Misc

• When cooking > 1 lb beans there's a chance for lots of foaming. Try cooking at low pressure for a few minutes longer. Also, a little oil in the cooking liquid can reduce foaming as well.
• When cooking > 1/4 cup beans or rice don't do a quick release, since it will foam too much (even with oil/butter).
• Red lentils: 6 mins, high pressure, quick release
  • 1/2 cup of red lentils can foam enough to splatter during the quick release, add some oil to break the foam.
• For cooking rice, see rice notes
• For cooking beans and legumes, see beans/legumes notes
