Brilio.net - Pressure cookers are different from ordinary pans, because they are specially designed so that the inside can capture high steam pressure. That way the food will be cooked in a short time. This tool is often found in the kitchen because its function is quite essential.
When the pressure cooker is closed, the cooking liquid will form steam which creates high pressure. To reduce steam, the pressure cooker lid is also equipped with a pot valve. This part functions to remove air little by little. Air coming out of the pot valve is usually marked by a typical pressure cooker whistling sound. This sound is a sign that your food is cooked.
After finishing cooking, the pressure cooker must be cleaned immediately. Unfortunately, some people don't wash their pressure cookers thoroughly. As a result, the valve on the lid of the pressure cooker still has dirt stuck to it. Even though this part can be filled with residual dirt from cooking steam.
