For a whole Turkey (10-12 lbs) you can brown it first, make sure it's on a trivet with 2 cups of water, for 40 minutes. Release pressure using the natural release method. For a larger turkey, a 20 lbs. for example, pressure cook for 1 1/2 hours. Keep the pressure at 15psi.

A pressure cooker minimizes the escape of fluids or air. The build-up of air and fluid increases the pressure inside the cooker, which also increases the boiling point. An open kettle allows the fluid and air to escape, heat is lost thus cooking time is longer.
Increasing the pressure the temperature also increase and cooking is faster. In a normal, uncovered pot, the temperature of the liquid will increase until it reaches the boiling point, and then stabilize at that temperature. The reason that a pressure cooker can improve on cooking times is that the boiling point is a function of the ambient pressure. An uncovered pot at sea level will boil at a higher temperature than the same uncovered pot in Mexico City or Denver or any other high altitude city. A pressure cooker allows the temperature to go higher because the pressure of the vapor above the liquid is contained so the boiling temperature can go higher and thus the food inside is subject to is higher temperatures. As far as kinematic energy is concerned - yes - that will be true. Higher temperatures mean higher average kinematic energy for the molecules and it tends towards being proportional to the Kelvin temperature as long as you are still well below the critical temperature and pressure of the fluid.
why salt is added before cooking pulse at atmospheric pressure
hi there the function of a stove is to cook food for our consumption.It cooks food by gas or electrics and can meet a wide range of temperatures./the stove also has hobs which allows us to rest pots and pan on it.
The main use for an electric range cooker is primarily to cook products for consumption. These cookers can be used to fry, boil and poach as well as bake.
Yes you can pressure cook a pint jar in a pressure cooker.
Because the temperatures are high in pressure cooker
no
A solar cooker and a pressure cooker are two completely different ways of cooking. A pressure cooker can still use a heat source like a gas or electric cook top. A solar cooker is as the mercy of the heat of the sun and the contents will only cook as well as the amount of heat it obtains.
Just cook it like a normal turkey in the slow cooker idiot !
A pressure cooker will cook food faster and also tenderize tougher meats.
because external pressure is low on the montains and food dont cook easily that is why mountainers carry with them pressure cooker........
pressure cooker how to cook greene beanns
A pressure cooker uses steam from water to cook food and is usually found in a residential setting. A pressure fryer uses oil to cook the food. Pressure fryers are only found in restaurants and are generally used to fry chicken.
First, pressure cookers are usually not big enough for that. Second, the pressure in most pressure cookers is the same for everything you cook in it. (There are some modern ones that allow you to make adjustments) The principle of a pressure cooker is that the boiling point of water, which is in virtually everything you would put in a pressure cooker, is higher under pressure. That means the temperature you are cooking at is higher. If you boil water on the stove in an open pot the water never gets higher in temperature than 212 F. at five pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure in a pressure cooker water boils at 220 F. at ten psi water boils at 235 F. Higher temperatures cooking is faster. Your turkey will cook in a pressure cooker, but it won't come out looking like a roasted turkey. So plan on eating this one alone.
You can cook just about any kind of food in any sort of cookware as long as you have the experience. You can google for a lot of results on what is best cooked in a pressure cooker.
Unfortunately, I do not agree with the answer that the turkey giblets will eat you alive. My mom use to cook the giblets and dad always got the gizzard. That is until we kids grew older and fought over them, then she used them in the gravy. They will not make you sick or kill you. I'm not aware of the cake. I just wanted to know what pressure and liquid you use to pressure cook the giblets. I make my turkey stock using the broth from the giblets. You can also boil them, but it takes forever. About 3-4 hrs.
