Your WMF pressure cooker – cooking quicker while keeping the taste

You can reduce your cooking times with a pressure cooker and still retain all the flavour and vitamins inside your food. We can offer you a range of pressure cookers in different designs.

Relaxed cooking – even when you're short of time

You can reduce cooking times by up to 70% for food products and even whole meals by using a high-quality pressure cooker. This system works for soups and stews as well as for vegetables, fish or poultry. Even food that has been deep frozen can still be put into a pressure cooker and quickly and safely turned into a tasty dish. A pressure cooker functions on a simple principle: steam pressure. The boiling point of water increases in a vacuum or under high pressure, meaning that food can cook at higher temperatures inside the pot, which accelerates the process. The hermetic lock by means of a sealing ring and a so-called bayonet lock means the food's flavour and nutrients remain intact. So it's a win-win for you - a more intense taste and less time to wait to be able to enjoy it! Pressure cookers from the WMF cookware assortment have two different heat settings. The safety setting makes sure that the pot can only be opened when the pressure has completely dissipated.

The benefits of WMF pressure cookers at a glance:

Pressure cookers have their own section within our pots range because they have a particular level of technology and accessories to seal the inside of the pot. The reliable construction and meticulous workmanship give this high-quality item of cookware additional advantages:

• An easily visible indicator keeps you informed of the temperature inside the pressure cooker during the cooking process.
• A robust sealing ring ensures the cooker is sealed airtight.
• All the technology is contained within the handle, which can be removed and washed under running water.
• WMF pressure cookers are made from reliable Cromargan® stainless steel 18/10 and have a measuring scale on the inside.

Replacement inserts or lids for your pressure cooker can be found in our WMF shop!

What size do you need?

Our pressure cookers are available in a range of sizes from 2.5 l to 8.5 l. This makes gentle pressure cooking an option both for single-person households or the biggest of families. Choose the right pressure cooker for you! Our pressure cooker sets are particularly smart. Two pots in different sizes can either be used individually or as a combination.

Pressure cooker inserts – a useful helper for speedy cooking

Food is cooked gently and quickly at high temperatures in our pressure cookers. Pressure cooker inserts make it easier to cook food in hot steam and give you more flexibility.

The insert that can do anything!

Pressure cooker inserts are available in a range of heights and designs. We can provide you with perforated and non-perforated inserts in various heights as well as matching trivets. With our practical accessories you can also use your pressure cooker to do the following:

• Perforated inserts are suitable for steaming or defrosting frozen food.
• A perforated insert is placed on top of a non-perforated insert in order to juice fruit.
• The inserts can be stacked on top of each other inside the pressure cooker to cook multiple things at the same time. The steam keeps the different flavours apart so that each foodstuff can keep its individual taste.

The inserts usually make sure that food inside the pressure cooker does not come into contact with boiling water. This makes gentle steam cooking possible, and makes it the most gentle and healthy way of cooking around. This method of cooking has been well loved in Asia for hundreds of years. The main advantages are that the food's colour and nutrients remain intact and the amount of fat and spices used in cooking is reduced. If you want to become a master at this art of cooking then we recommend the WMF steam cooker from our range of cookware.

Pressure cooker inserts from our assortment

The inserts are compatible with pressure cookers of the same diameter and can carry out all kinds of sophisticated tasks when cooking. The hermetic lock by means of a pressure cooker lid accelerates the cooking process inside the pot and leaves your food full of flavour, energy and vitamins. WMF can offer you a range of inserts with a diameter between 18 and 22 cm, meaning that there is one to match any kind of pot. Each insert has a matching trivet to make sure that inserts can be securely placed in the pressure cooker. The stable metal brackets are placed on the base of the pot and serve as stands for the insert. The trivets are made from polished Cromargan® stainless steel 18/10 and in their different sizes are made to fit the relevant pressure cookers.
