E48960 Non-Electric Pressure Canner

PRESSURE CANNING AND COOKING

Offers the busy restaurateur/cook many money-saving advantages.

• Safe Canning.Pressure cooking provides the only safe method for canning non-acid foods such as vegetables, fish, meat and poultry. It is perfect for canning in tin cans as well as in glass jars.
• Saves Energy And Time.The pressure cooker prepares food in a fraction of the time required by other cooking methods.
• More Healthy.Foods cook quickly in a minimum amount of liquid, helping foods retain flavour and healthy nutrients.
• Saves Money.Budget cuts of eat are quickly cooked to juicy goodness in the pressure cooker. The high temperature makes meat tender and flavourful without the use of chemical tenderizers.
• Saves Clean-Up.Since food flavours do not mingle in live steam, several foods may be prepared in the cooker at the same time without mixing flavours.
