Steaming can be done by using the steam rack that comes with the pressure
cooker, and filling the bottom of the inner pot with water.

■ Pressure cook
● After putting seasoning, stir ingredients thoroughly from the bottom of the inner pot.
If seasonings do not get mixed in well with water, the sensor will not be able to properly detect thetemperature of the ingredients, and they might not get cooked properly.
● Line up and cut each type of ingredient up into a suitable size.
Ingredients that get heated up easily can be cut into larger pieces, while those that do not get
heated up easily should be cut into smaller pieces; make sure that everything gets cooked evenly
