INTRODUCTION
One of the most important things to know when going on a ketogenic diet I that you will have to adopt a diet that is high in fat, moderate in protein, and low in carbs in order to achieve ketosis. Ketosis is a fat-burning metabolic state that will help the body perform optimally. This state will encourage your body to burn fat instead of sugar. In a typical keto diet, grains, refined vegetable oils, and sugars will be replaced with quality-sourced fish and meats, healthy fat sources, and nutrient-dense vegetables. Typically, the macronutrient breakdown is 65-75% fat, 15-30% protein, and 5-10% carbohydrates. In a keto diet, the liver will help convert fatty acids into ketone bodies for the body to use as its primary source of fuel, instead of going through the process of breaking carbohydrates down to glucose for fuel.
Some of the benefits of sticking to a keto diet are improved composition of the body, improved skin, better digestion, and sustainable energy. For someone like me who is passionate about cooking, going ketogenic gives me an opportunity to experiment and enjoy low-carb meals.
The pressure cooker has been beneficial in preparing these meals as cooking has become faster, more flavored, and enjoyable.
The recipes provided in this book will help you cook confidently with any version of the pressure cooker you have.
NUTRITION
Every individual requires a nutrition strategy that matches his or her genetic makeup, goals, and level of activity. What works for one person may not necessarily work for the other, which is why it is important to know what works best for you.
Going keto is a very good way to eat. The following tips will help you achieve success:
Go for Quality Food: The quality of the food you eat is just as important as eating the right type of food. The nutritional value of your food depends on the way the produce you eat is grown and processed, as well as the way the animals you eat are raised. Quality food is gotten from organic, pasture-raised, grass-fed, wild-caught, and locally-raised options.
Eat Real Food: Not all keto meals are healthy and nutrient-dense. As a matter of fact, you may be in a state of ketosis but still be unhealthy due to the consumption of processed foods, processed meat, and processed cheese. Let your choice of food come from healthy and nutrient-dense sources, instead of a bag or box.
Eat the Right Kind of Fat: The primary source of fuel in a ketogenic diet could be either dietary fat or body fat. Processed and refined vegetable oils and seed oils found in most of the store-bought dressings, processed foods, and condiments should be avoided. These unhealthy fat sources are the major causes of unwanted inflammatory and metabolic conditions. Healthy fats and oils like coconut oil, butter, ghee, avocado oil, and olive oil should replace sunflower oil, margarine, soybean oil, and canola oil. The importance of the quality and source of your food cannot be overemphasized.
Enjoy the Journey: The ketogenic lifestyle is quite easy to maintain and gives meals that taste delicious and are satisfying. You can adopt this eating style, enjoy it, and still have flexibility within this lifestyle. When on a keto diet, your focus should be on progress, not perfection and you should go gentle on yourself. Do not make food your enemy; instead food should help you optimize your health and achieve your goals. Indulging in a doughnut that is jelly-filled and covered with powdered sugar once in a while is totally okay. Just take it one step at a time
BENEFITS OF PRESSURE COOKING
The pressure cooker is an amazing kitchen appliance for preparing meals that are flavorful, high in fat, and low in carb. The Instant Pot makes cooking delightful and eliminates the need for using a stove or oven. Here are some of the benefits of using pressure cookers:
Cooks Fast: Pressure cookers cook food fast compared to stove tops or ovens. In most cases, food cooks 25 to 30% faster when done with a pressure cooker.
Better Results: The results gotten from cooking with a pressure cooker are usually better and more consistent than conventional cooking methods. It is even easier to peel hard-boiled eggs when they are cooked using a pressure cooker.
Multi-purpose: With a pressure cooker, it is easier to cook one-pot meals easily and efficiently, especially because of the Sauté or Browning function that pressure cookers have.
Saves Energy: Pressure cookers cook faster than conventional cooking methods and also use far less water while cooking. This makes them the most energy-efficient cooking appliances.
Saves Flavor and Nutrients: Nutrients and flavor get lost when food is exposed to heat for extended periods. The reduced cooking time also helps save water, and reduces the number of minerals and nutrients that dissolve while cooking. Therefore, cooking with a pressure cooker makes your food more nutrient-dense and well-flavored.
WHAT SHOULD BE PRESSURE-COOKED?
The pressure cooker is great for cooking meals that would traditionally take a long time to cook. Pressure cookers typically cook food with steam and high heat. Some of the foods the pressure cooker cooks quickly and excellently are soups, stocks, dried beans, legumes, braises, stews, hard vegetables, sauces, and grains.
THE PRESSURE COOKER AND KETOGENIC DIET
Keto and pressure cooking go very well together. The pressure cooker can quickly cook your nutrient-rich vegetables, quality-sourced meats, and fat-filled stews, condiments, and sauces. It does this very efficiently with minimal loss of nutrients and flavors.
A COMPARISON OF ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKERS
Although at their core, pressure cookers cook the same way, there are some differences that are worthy of note.
Instant Pot: These multi-cookers come in 3 sizes, which are: 3-quart, 6-quart, and 8-quart. The Instant Pot comes with many preprogrammed settings and slow-cooks settings too. Its inner pot is made of stainless steel and it comes with a ceramic nonstick pot which is available separately. They also come in different models, but the pressure level of the Lux model is adjustable and has a yogurt setting. The customer service is excellent and it has many accessories available. On the downside, the reprogrammed settings of the Instant Pot are not always accurate. More so, the different models have different preset times, which makes it hard to follow same recipes for all models of the Instant Pot.
Breville Fast Slow Pro: This multi-cooker is only available in 6-quart size. It functions mainly as a slow cooker but has many preprogrammed settings for slow cooking and pressure cooking. The inner pot of this pressure cooker is made of nonstick ceramic and its pressure level is adjustable. You can even select the release method at the start of the cooking cycle. The pressure release button is also rightly placed on the front so your hand is quite far from the steam when you are releasing pressure. However, the lid of this cooker is attached to the base and it has an arm that cannot be detached which makes it harder to store.
Power Pressure Cooker XL: Available in three sizes, which are: 6-quart, 8-quart, and 10-quart, this multi-cooker has adjustable pressure levels, nonstick inner pot, pre-programmed settings, and slow-cook settings. It is also one of the few electric cookers with a 10-quart model. However, its nonstick inner pot is not quite durable.
ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES
Having some necessary accessories will help bring out the best in you and your pressure cooker. Below is a list of some of the best accessories and their uses.
Extra Sealing Ring: This ring helps absorb the flavors of different foods. The use of separate sealing rings for sweet
