Presto 01362 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker

The Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker is a versatile and efficient kitchen appliance that can save you time and help you cook healthier meals. This pressure cooker cooks food 3 to 10 times faster than ordinary cooking methods, even faster than a microwave for many foods, making it an ideal choice for busy weeknight dinners or any meal that needs to come together quickly.

One of the key features of this pressure cooker is its ability to retain more of the food's natural nutrients and flavors. Chicken, fish, meat, and vegetables cook to perfection fast, and the pressure cooker helps tenderize economical cuts of meat, making it a great option for budget-conscious cooks.

The pressure regulator automatically maintains the proper cooking pressure, ensuring consistent and reliable results every time. The cover lock indicator shows when there is pressure inside the cooker and prevents the cover from being opened until the pressure is safely reduced, providing an added layer of safety.

In addition to its cooking prowess, the Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker is also easy to clean and maintain. It is fully immersible and dishwasher safe, with the exception of the sealing ring and overpressure plug, which must be hand washed. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable for easy cleaning.

The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (17 inches including handles) and 8-1/2 inches tall (including lid), making it a compact and convenient addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools. It is suitable for use on regular, smooth-top, and induction ranges, and Presto backs it with an extended 12-year limited warranty.

Included with the pressure cooker is a detailed instruction and recipe booklet, which provides more than 65 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts, and even desserts like 5-minute custards. With this comprehensive guide, you'll be able to unlock the full potential of your pressure cooker and create a wide variety of delicious and healthy meals.

Overall, the Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker is a smart choice for busy cooks who want to save time and cook more nutritious meals. Its combination of speed, efficiency, and versatility make it a valuable addition to any kitchen.
