Overfilling the cooker may block the vent pipe ( 排气孔 ) and cause the cooker to explode. 3. Set the cooking time. Too much time may overcook the food or too much pressure may build up in the cooker. Too little time will lead to undercooked food. 4. If you are new to pressure cooking, follow the cooking instructions carefully. Heat and time can either result in a great meal or a ruined one. 5. Never try to force a pressure cooker cover open. Allow the cooker to cool or run it undercool water before trying to open the cover. 6. Clean the cooker thoroughly after each use.
