What is soluble vitamins?
Vitamins are either soluble in water or fat. The water-soluble vitamins are the B vitamins and vitamin C. They are usually found in carbohydrate-containing foods, are easily absorbed, and are also easily destroyed by heat and cooking. Fat soluble vitamins are the vitamins A, D, E, and K. These are typically found in fat-containing foods. Fat-soluble vitamins absorption varies from 40-90%. These vitamins are not as easily destroyed and are stored in the body very readily. We should be careful while washing food containing water soluble vitamins as they tend to dissolve in water and wash away. The water sould be used as a stock or gravy.

Why do improper cooking practices result in loss of nutrients?
Improper cooking practices, such as overcooking, boiling for too long, or using excessive heat, can lead to the degradation of sensitive vitamins and minerals.

Additionally, cooking methods that involve frying or excessive oil can alter the nutritional profile of foods, potentially increasing unhealthy fat content while diminishing beneficial nutrients. Overall, these practices can significantly reduce the nutritional value of the food consumed.

Is it true cooking in a pressure cooker preserves vitamins and nutrients?
Scientists from Norway have proved that cooking with pressure slows the molecules that normally speed up during normal cooking. Since this slowing occurs it doesn't knock around the nutrients as much as normal cooking does and therefore locks in the nutrients and the freshness. It has also been shown that Palaeolithic Man sat on his food while cooking for this very reason. Though it is believed he would have "burned his biscuits", scientists believe contributed directly to our evolution.
