Introduction

Today's pressure cookers are a far cry
from those used by our mothers and
grandmothers. When first introduced in
the late 1930's, pressure cookers were
acclaimed to be the housewives best
friend, allowing her to prepare
delicious, economical, healthy meals in
a fraction of the time. While this
element of healthy, rapid cooking still
remains true, the design and
engineering of today's pressure
cookers have gone through a major
evolution.
Surrounded by endless myths,
pressure cookers are probably the
least understood of cookware. This is
unfortunate since pressure cookers
provide many advantages over
traditional cooking. First and foremost,
most foods can be cooked in a fraction
of the time it normally would take, in
most cases, cooking in up to one-third
of the time. Since the food is being
cooked for such a short period, it is
less likely to lose its color and flavor, as
well as many of the vital minerals and
vitamins that are normally washed
away when cooking in large quantities
of water in a open pot, for longer
periods of time.

Made from high-quality, heavy-gauge,
18/10 stainless steel, Fagor pressure
cookers are designed and
manufactured with a concern for
function and safety, meeting all
international safety standards. If you
are familiar with cooking in a pressure
cooker, you will first notice that the
rotating, weighted valve has been
eliminated. By incorporating into the
lid four pressure release valves, as well
as a pressure indicator, you will never
again have to worry if the rotating valve
is functioning properly and whether or
not there is too much pressure. Fagor's
easy-to-read pressure indicator makes
it simpler than ever to determine the
proper amount of pressure and how to
maintain it, as the pressure release
valves signal when to lower or raise the
burner heat in order to maintain the
level of pressure desired.
With proper use and care, your Fagor
pressure cooker will provide you with
many years of carefree use, not to
mention quick and easy delicious
meals.
