Presto 1241 - Desserts

DESSERTS
Desserts may be prepared in oven-safe custard cups or any metal
mold which will fit loosely in the pressure cooker. Fill molds only
_-/_full to allow for expansion of food. Cover securely with
aluminum foil shaped to the sides of the mold. Place the mold or
custard cups on the cooking rack in the cooker. Refer to the chart
below for the number of custard cups your cooker will hold and
how the custard cups should be positioned on the cooking rack.
To test custards for doneness, insert a knife into the center. If the
knife comes out clean, it is done. If not, it will be necessary to
bring the cooker back up to pressure and cook the custard a min-
ute or two longer.
Do not cook applesauce, cranberries, or rhubarb in the pressure
cooker.
