It is known that cooking at high temperatures in a sealed environment (a pressure cooker) is a faster way to prepare food. A pot boils at 100° C / 212° F. Liquid in a pressure cooker boils at 125° C / 257° F. The increased temperature and high pressure allow for shorter cook times. Pressure cookers are widely popular, often perceived by consumers as safe, but that’s not always the reality. Since 2019, there have been over 300 pressure cooker lawsuits alleging dangerous defects and injuries.
