Question

What make the difference if pressure cookers are used at higher altitudes

Answer 1

as temperature is affected by altitude
so at high altitude the temperature needed to cook will be more so the preasure inside the cooker will be more as more heat is provided to it

Answer 2

I have three answers

long answer

At higher altitude, the air pressure is lower. At lower air pressure, water boils at lower temperatures. The time it takes to cook something depends on the temperature, NOT on if the substance is boiling or not. If water boils at lower temperature, food takes longer to cook.

With a pressure cooker, the pressure inside the pot is higher. At higher pressure, water boils at a higher temperature. At higher temperature, food cooks faster. Shorter time to cook saves energy.

short answer

At higher altitudes, the air is rarefied. In such cases, the boiling point of every liquid rises higher. This means that it will take longer to cook. Even the pressure cooker will take longer to cook. But using a pressure cooker will ensure faster cooking all the same.

very short answer

At high altitudes the pressure of air is low so it takes more time to cook normally. Hence u can use a pressure cooker which cooks food faster then usually.
