PRessuRe CooKinG souPs
Make homemade soups the easy way in your canner. If you wish to prepare your family’s favorite soup, use the following recipes as
guides. Soup recipes are cooked at 15 pounds pressure.
Do not pressure cook soups containing barley, rice, pasta, split peas, or soup mixes with dried vegetables because they have a tendency
to foam, froth, and sputter and could clog the vent pipe. See page 21.
The canner quickly transfers natural flavor and nutrients from the meat into the broth. Prepare either the Brown Beef Soup Stock or the
Chicken Soup Stock according to the recipe. Remove the pieces of meat. If desired, cut into small pieces and use in soup recipes. Strain
through several layers of cheese cloth. Once the stock is prepared, serve it as a consommé or use it to prepare delicious soups.
