11| USAGE AND PREPARATION
METHODS
11.1| COOKING WITH INSERTS
AND TRIVET
Several foods can be prepared in the pres-
sure cooker at the same time - depending on
the height of the pressure cooker. The indi-
vidual foods are stacked separately on top of
each other using inserts. For instance, if meat is
being cooked at the bottom of the pot, a trivet
is placed on the bottom of the pot so that the
first insert is above the meat.
Note about accessories
Purchase inserts and trivets as accessories
from WMF specialised dealers / Service centres.
Unperforated inserts are used for vegetables
and perforated inserts are used for potatoes.
The food with the longest cook time should be
placed in the pot first without an insert.
1| In order to cook foods with different cook-
ing times, the pot must be opened now and
again. While doing so steam escapes, so put
more liquid into the pot than required and
refill if need be.
Examples
Roasting (20 min) – pot base
Potatoes (8 min) – perforated insert
Vegetables (8 min) – unperforated insert
2| First cook the roast for 12 min.
3| Open the pot as described in Section 6.1.
4| Put the potatoes in a perforated insert on a
trivet above the roast and place the vegeta-
bles on top in an unperforated insert.
5| Close the pot as described in Section 6.3 and
cook for another 8 min.
TIP If there is not much difference between the
cooking times, all inserts can be placed in the
pot at the same time.
11.2| SEARING
Before cooking, foods (e.g. onions, pieces of
meat etc.) can be seared in the pressure cooker
like in a conventional pot.
1| Remove the lid
6
as described in Section 6.1
and sear the food.
2| To finish cooking …
a) loosen any residue,
b) add the required amount of liquid (at least
1/4 l),
c) add other foods if desired - with or with-
out inserts.
3| Put the lid on and close it as described in
Section 6.3.
4| Heat until the desired cooking level is reached.
11.3| USING FROZEN FOOD
1| Add minimum amount of liquid (1/4 l water).
2| Place unthawed frozen food in the pot.
3| Thaw meat for searing.
4| Place the vegetables into an unperforated
insert directly from the packet.
Cooking times are longer for frozen food.
