Girls, please help!
It seems there is something wrong with my saucepan. I put the meat to cook now, but in 20 minutes she did not gain pressure. All the time, steam comes out of the pressure regulator valve and a drop of water on it. I turned it off, I don't know what to do.
IRR
oh, my mothers, Vita! re-seal the pot, check the valve, it must be submerged. In the mode, cook, not let off steam.
Vitalinka
Irus, it is not submerged. But I understand that when the pressure builds up, it rises. The pot seems to have closed well. You think about trying to turn it on again.
I cooked rice yesterday, it was the same, the pressure was recruited for about 15 minutes, and then the program started.
Maybe it's something wrong with my saucepan, I thought the pressure was building up quickly.

Steam comes out of the valve all the time

it shouldn't be. The valve must be in position closed ...

There are 2 valve positions - closed
and release steam forcibly. You should now have a closed position. I haven't seen Scarlett with my own eyes, but it's in the order of things for all wells. And do not boil
Vitalinka
Irus, I know that the valve must be closed. Now I turned it on again, after 4 minutes the program turned on. Getting ready, but me.

it always happens this way, this terrible SHIIIIIIIIII, this pan throws off excess, equalizes the pressure before cooking. First SHII, and then silence. and the time has passed.

The fact is that in addition to this terrible SHIIIIIIII, steam is also coming down, should it be so?
g_alien
Don't worry, there is nothing to break there! Most likely, just flush the valve well from all sides and the lid itself, put it correctly and try again.
It is better to just boil the water so that the nerves calm down, and pure steam will also benefit.

The meat is already cooked. I'll go open the lid and see what happened.
Thank you all for your help and support!

I am reporting. Despite all my dances with a tambourine, the meat was cooked 5+ in 20 minutes! I've already tried it, it's very tasty!

Wiggle the valve a little, it will shrink and steam will stop coming out. I had the same situation.

Share your experience, please, who cooks how pilaf? I put meat (beef), rice with water 1/1, put on the program Rice for 16 minutes ... The meat did not melt straight, but the rice became like porridge. Cartoon did an excellent job with pilaf, but the pressure cooker gave out something wrong ... But I do not know how to cook, I admit that the hands are hooks, so I ask for tips!
Telepuzzik
We made pilaf like this: together we put rice, spices for pilaf, meat previously fried in a pan (chicken), raw carrots, and all this was poured with water in a ratio of about 1: 1.5 (in my version it was like this: for 5 multi-cups rice 8 multi-cups of hot water). We put on "Rice" for 12 minutes, everything was cooked normally, not a single gram of water remained ...
Maroussia_cz
And I wanted to do without pre-frying meat - as it is prepared in a slow cooker. Apparently it won't work like that, right? And I took water according to a multicooker recipe. In the next. just pour less water. Thank you
Telepuzzik
Yes, not at all

Why not ... It should work, but first, let's say, put the meat with spices to stew, well, it’s like making a broth, maybe even an incomplete program, and then add rice and cook it on "Rice", only the amount of water needs to be calculated ... I got very tasty potatoes in this way

In general, I don't seem to be a great specialist in pressure cookers yet, I've only been using it for a week, maybe someone from more experienced users will tell you
SeredaG
Immediately, right in the pressure cooker with the lid open (you can bake mode), fry onions, carrots, spices in vegetable (or whatever you like) oil - add meat, lightly fry (if it is chicken or pork, then it is enough to lightly whiten the meat, of course you can until golden brown if you want). Then add rice (preferably steamed), I pour boiling water (boiling or hot because our saucepans with a non-stick coating warmed up during frying and we do not need to spoil this coating by pouring cold water, and it will take longer to boil with cold water) in the proportion of 1 multi-glass of rice - 2 water. We closed and cook the "Rice" mode. 12 minutes are no longer necessary - the rice will be overcooked and the chicken or pork will be overcooked too.

In my opinion, if you sketch everything at once, it will turn out not very similar to pilaf - more it will be rice porridge with meat

Telepuzzik
No, I got exactly pilaf, but I was frying cleanly chopped meat with a little spices in a pan, because it was scary to do frying in a pressure cooker on the 3rd day of use

And another question, not entirely on the topic of the conversation, the truth, but still: on which program is it better to make jam in general, maybe someone tried it, specifically in relation to our pressure cooker, otherwise I looked through the recipes for other pressure cookers, and multicookers too, and finally got confused
Maroussia_cz
As my experience has shown, I will cook in the cartoon. Baking in a pressure cooker. I'm not a fan of frying, watching food. That's why I bought the cartoon to "throw it and leave." Well, soups in a pressure cooker can be.
SeredaG
Well, why not put it in the pressure cooker and leave? Pre-roasting is just for the taste as you like. Indeed, in cartoons, too, many first fry something, then add the rest of the ingredients according to the recipe and close. If there is no desire to make the dish difficult to prepare and the taste suits it later, then why not throw everything in at once and turn on cooking?

If you cook borscht, for example, in a cartoon or a pressure cooker, the result will be similar - the cooking time is only different.
Borscht in the cartoon:
https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...34680.0 the result is more than 2 hours for cooking.

https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...61514.0 borscht in cartoon Panasonic - more than an hour.

And everything is pre-fried or at least sautéed.

And here is the borscht in the Kukushka pressure cooker (Admin recipe), which, although more expensive than Scarlet, but the cooking principle and time are the same:

https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...79342.0 - cooking time 15 minutes from the moment of boiling and pressure build-up. So preliminary frying-sautéing is only the desire of the hostess to make the dish more tasty and rich. If you need a dietary option without roasting, then here you can quit everything right away and turn it on when you come home, and a delicious meal awaits you on heating just like in a cartoon.

Girls, I'm in pressure cookers full of zero and one thing worries me - my Scarlet-1529 builds up pressure from 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the mode. Is that how it should be?

It builds up pressure not depending on the mode, but depending on the amount of food inside. Pour 100 ml of water and 1 liter into the kettle - it will also boil in different ways.

If there is little water, then it will heat up faster and start working faster, if there is a lot, and even cold, then it will heat up longer. Top up with hot water if you want faster.

Christina2, welcome to the forum
shl. and further. If you cook a lot of vegetables for a salad, then you don't need to add water to cover these vegetables. It is enough to splash 200 grams, it will start cooking faster, because it will boil faster, and the vegetables will be steamed, not watery. I cook corn like that, and mashed potatoes

hello everyone! girls baked today a biscuit "chocolate on boiling water" it turned out some kind of incomprehensible rubber substance! the valve was opened according to the recipe everything was observed! I am shot, really in our Skarlushka it will not be possible to bake a good biscuit! who bakes please write recipes!
Tatiana-72
In Skarlusha she baked a "standard" biscuit for the "Bird's milk" cake, so my sister's eyes almost got out of her sockets when she saw how high the biscuit was. I cut it with a string into four parts, just for two cakes. So she made a cake from two cakes at once, and put two cakes in the refrigerator for the next time. Yes! Another incident happened - I set the "baking" program and went into another room, and they were interested in everything, and they turned the valve, and it turned out that the biscuit was baked with the valve closed, although it is recommended to keep the valve open for baking.

I read you. Choked up with saliva. I guess I'm already ripe to buy a pressure cooker! Especially after I learned that you can bake here too!

Can I have a biscuit recipe?
Tatiana-72
It's very simple: beat 6 eggs with 1.5 cups of sugar and 1.5 cups of flour, add 1 teaspoon of baking powder for the dough. Pour the finished dough into the prepared saucepan of the pressure cooker - grease with oil. If you are confident in your blender or mixer, then beat the eggs without separating the whites from the yolks, if not, then the procedure is standard: beat the whites with sugar separately and the yolks separately, and then combine, add flour and baking powder. Mode: "Baking". Good luck !!!

Hello everyone. I recently became the owner of this wonderful unit. I did not work with this kind of equipment. I immediately cooked rice with chicken, put meat on the program. Put it all at once. 20 minutes and you're done! Opened and eat. It's convenient for me. Well, okay, baking is my weakness, so in the near future I will try to cook pies, I will try to post photos.

thanks for the recipe!
Tell me, did anyone have this - you press the EXTINGUISHING button, and the Porridge / SOUP indicator lights up? What to do?

Carry in the guarantee, but in my bitter experience, Skarlushi manufacturers do not supply warranty workshops with spare parts. I waited three and a half months, instead of 55 days - I never got it. I barely knocked out the defective act, but during this time the MV has already risen in price, and at the new price it is not carried. They also scratched the case and knocked down the upper sensor.It's good that her husband and son got her brains right and she began to cook porridge and stew vegetables again normally. We decided not to contact the store, because I will spend more nerves. We do without two programs (I compensate with other MV and CMV) "express" and "warm-up". The story was with Scarlet 410. Workshop in Donetsk on the Fallen Communards 188.

If this is not a matter of principle for you, then the pressure cooker can be used calmly, most likely it is just that when soldering the wires, they were mixed up in places, since the buttons are located above each other. Moreover, Scarlett has a button "your recipe" on which you can set any time or just remember for yourself that "stewing" is "porridge", and "porridge" is "stewing".
The forum has repeatedly written that there are no programs as such in the pressure cooker - only the cooking time is on the buttons, and the temperature is the same everywhere and the readiness of the product is regulated only by the amount of liquid and the time that you set yourself, so in this case it's not a problem at all, that the buttons are confused and this should not affect cooking.

And now I just can't imagine how I could do without a pressure cooker for so many years. Two years ago, multicooker became a culinary shock for me and I infected everyone I knew, so now I practically do not cook in multicooker, only bake, because there is no oven, and it’s a pity to spoil the pressure pot with baking. At first I left dumplings and pasta for the cartoons, but now they are also cooked in a pressure cooker, because it is faster and better. I still cannot understand how it turns out that in 15 minutes a piece of frozen meat is amazingly boiled and the potatoes around it remain intact. But the biggest surprise is the soups in the pressure cooker, we don't really like the first courses and rarely eat them, I categorically did not like the soups in the multicooker, but we ran out of soup from the pressure cooker in 2 days, we ate it two bowls in a row (and the super-budget : peas, potatoes and sausage and onion roast).

Even if the food from the pressure cooker tasted the same to me as in the cartoon, and not tastier, then the pressure cooker would still greatly benefit in saving energy. Compare 2 hours of stewing meat in a multitude or 20-30 in a pressure cooker (this is taking into account the set and collection of pressure), and the pressure cooker consumes maximum electricity only during the pressure build-up, then it, like the cartoon, turns on the ten (stood under the counter - checked).
In general, for all doubters, a pressure cooker (any) is a thing! Probably the only household appliance besides a washing machine, which even my husband approved.
Tatiana-72
I totally agree with Pingvinus !!! Although Skarlusha does an excellent job with baking, today she was preparing a potato casserole in the "baking" mode - she did it perfectly.
BUT Irina_T did not write whether the light on the "extinguishing" button turns on when she presses the "porridge-soup" button?

Regarding saving electricity - I read somewhere on the forum that it is not necessary when you cook vegetables in a pressure cooker to fill them with water like in a saucepan (so that the water completely covers the vegetables), but it is enough to fill them by 1/4. A smaller volume of water heats up faster and the valve closes faster, and vegetables are boiled under pressure as if steaming. I checked it on my Simba (7 y.), Cooked a lot of beets for salads - the statement was confirmed !!!

Pingvinus! Do you steam dumplings in a pressure cooker ??? Because in a saucepan, during normal cooking in water, it is not recommended to even cover it with a lid, so that the dumplings do not burst, due to the increase in pressure inside the dumplings (How are they wrapped up !!!). Although I used to cook them in a saucepan without a lid.

My husband also grumbled when I just started talking about the pressure cooker (I already had 3 MB), and when the question arose that Simba had 7 liters (when I bought I was looking for a volume larger than that of MB, I thought that MB would be enough for everything small) and "drive" such a colossus for three glasses of peas? ...there were no more questions about buying a smaller pressure cooker. The electric meter convinces him without words, and even in the heat it is not necessary to turn on the oven, even though we have a gas one, and for now, without a gas meter, we pay based on the number of prescribed ones. And for CF, I kept what they do best, yoghurt, for example.

Good day everyone! I'm a newbie, so forgive me if I inserted my message in the wrong place. I put the biscuit oven with an open valve in baking mode, the machine worked for a while and turned off, blinked with dangling zeros, turned on, and so on several times. Has anyone had this situation? There is no smell (tasty), except for the smell of the new Chinese (that is, the lid gaskets). It seems that, as Vinokur said, there will be a surprise
Lena Sladka
on the "baking" mode I have the same. but apparently this is normal for this mode, everything is baked, but I do not like baking in the SV, it tastes better in the oven, so everything else is very tasty. in other modes, the zeroes are lit continuously until the end of the program.
Irina_T
The fact of the matter is that I press the SOUP / Porridge button - this is soup / porridge, but STEWING is again SOUP / Porridge!
BUT I thought that really, this is the biggest trouble)) You can correct it! It was just an unpleasant surprise
Talamea
Pingvinus, or more about dumplings and pasta. For some reason I thought that these particular products should not be cooked in the SV ... and here is your message ... In general, I am intrigued. If possible, then in more detail how to cook and how long you need to expose and how much water, etc.

I cook dumplings, dumplings, pasta, as in a slow cooker.
More or less like this - https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=106300.0
I pour frozen dumplings, a spoonful of vegetable oil and a glass or two of water on the bottom and set 3-5 minutes with the button "my recipe" (depending on the volume), naturally with a closed valve. Everything turns out great, the dumplings-dumplings are whole, boiled, not a single one has ever been torn apart. And in cartoons I cook on a rice program (before the liquid evaporates), so there they are slightly fried from below, delicious, but sometimes stick together a little (depending on the dough, probably), and in a pressure cooker they do not stick together at all, they are so steamed and beautiful, though I try not to put a lot in a maximum of 2 layers.

Yesterday I bought this saucepan, this morning I tried to make steam cutlets - something didn't work out in 15 minutes, as it is written in the book. As a result, I had to unplug it and just go to work. Although the cutlets are completely cooked, how to understand when the cooking ended? Tell me please!!!
Vitalinka
Pokemonchik when the cooking program ends, the pan automatically switches to the "keep warm" program. And then you already see for yourself, if you do not eat right away, then leave the food on the heating. If you need to set the table, then turn off the "temperature maintenance" program, open the valve and get the food.
Pokemonchik
Vitalinochka, I understand everything, but how can I understand when the program ended? On the monitor, as it was 15 minutes, it remained and only two front zeroes ran in a circle.
Vitalinka
Well, in general, the toe-noughts run in a circle when she gains pressure, and then they stop running and the time counts down. And when the program ends, the saucepan beeps. Maybe she didn't have time to gain pressure?
Pokemonchik
Maybe she didn't have time, but the steam went through a small hole in the lid. Maybe I poured a lot of water? How much water do you need to add for the steamer function?

Yesterday I cooked the pelengasa in Skarlusha "steamer-fish" mode. I simply salted the pieces of fish, pounded them with a mixture of peppers, and sprinkled them with lemon. She poured a glass of water into the bottom of the pressure cooker, threw in lemon peels, bay leaves, herbs. All this took 15 minutes. The son is pleased.Delicious and light dinner.

Girls thank you very much !!! I poured a lot of water. this morning I did the same operation, it took about 20 minutes !!! Thanks again!!!
