Although the electric pressure cooker is very convenient now, many people still like to use the traditional pressure cooker. Although the pressure cooker is fast and convenient, it can retain more nutrients in food, but its safety hazards still exist, so how to prevent the pressure cooker from exploding?

1. Before use, carefully check whether the air holes on the lid seat are clear and the safety plug is intact.

The food in the pot should not exceed 4/5 of the capacity. When closing the lid, it must be screwed into the slot, and the upper and lower handles should be aligned. When cooking, the upper pressure valve is closed when steam starts to be discharged from the air hole.

3, when heated to the pressure limiting valve issued a loud hiss, to immediately cool down.

4. When cooking, if the safety plug is found to be exhausted, replace it with a new fusible piece in time, and it must not be blocked by iron wire, cloth, etc.

5. Before each use, carefully check whether the exhaust hole of the pressure limiting valve is unobstructed (it can be cleaned with toothpicks) and keep the anti-blocking cover clean.

6, the food in the pot should not be too full, generally should not exceed three-quarters of the pot height. For foods that are prone to flatulence (such as kelp, mung beans, corn, etc. ), do not exceed half of the pot body.

The above is the method that I share with you to prevent the explosion of the pressure cooker. I hope it will help you.
