The pressure cooker is perfect for preparing delicious, nourishing soups and stocks in minutes instead of the hours taken by ordi-
nary methods.
Stocks form the base for most great soups and sauces and you can even substitute a stock for water in many recipes to add extra
flavor. Traditionally, stocks are made by simmering bones and scraps for hours to extract all their flavor. With the pressure cooker,
you can do the same thing in just minutes by following the simple directions on the following pages.
We’ve also included a few favorite soup recipes and, if you have a favorite recipe of your own, try it in the pressure cooker using
one of the recipes in this book as your guide. If adding dried vegetables, they must first be soaked according to directions on page
29. Do not pressure cook soups containing barley, rice, pasta, grains, dry beans and peas which are not listed in the chart
on page 29, and dried soup mixes because they have a tendency to foam, froth, and sputter and could clog the vent pipe.
Cooked barley, rice, grains, pasta, dry beans and peas which are not listed in the chart on page 29, and dried soup mixes should be
added to the soup after pressure cooking.
