Скачать или смотреть Forgot Pressure Cooker on Stove? Here's What can Happens!

What happens if you accidentally leave your pressure cooker on a running gas stove for too long? This may seem like a small mistake — but it can turn into a potentially explosive situation if not handled properly!

When you start cooking in a pressure cooker, the water inside heats up and turns to steam. This steam builds pressure, allowing food to cook faster. But if the gas is left on and all the water inside evaporates, there's no moisture left to absorb or release heat. That means the food inside starts to burn, and the metal body of the cooker gets hotter and hotter — way beyond its normal safe temperature range.

Without steam being released through the safety valve, the internal pressure builds up rapidly. If the heat continues, this pressure can exceed the structural limits of the cooker. At that point, the lid or body may burst open violently, leading to a dangerous kitchen explosion — flinging hot food, steam, and even metal shards.

But what if you catch the mistake in time and rush to turn off the stove? You might think of pouring cold water over it to cool it down — DON’T DO THAT! The sudden temperature difference can weaken or even crack the metal force the pressure to release unpredictably.

What should you do instead?

*Carefully turn off the gas.
*Do not move the cooker immediately.
*Let it cool naturally in a dry, safe space.
*Once cooled, check if the safety valve is intact before opening.
