2023.1.29: web.cook/lentil/cooking time in a pressure cooker:
I reduce cooking time in 3 ways:
. soak the lentils in boiling water to soften them.
. puree the soaked lentils in a vitamixer;
and, that way some of the heat that was needed for
breaking up the lentils
can then instead be used for immediately
attacking anti-nutrients.
. use a high temperature by using an
InstantPot pressure cooker;
it adds 11.6 psi for a temperature of about 242F
(compare to other pressure cookers
at 15 psi for 250°F). [Ariel Knutson 2019]

. with the 242F applied for 15 minutes,
keep the cooker lid closed,
and it continues to cook for perhaps 30 minutes
as the temperature slowly comes down
because the InstantPot is insulated.
