Two forces. One fast cooker. That’s the power of the Tupperware® Microwave Pressure Cooker, which—you guessed it—combines pressure with microwave energy to deliver speedy, savory meals in minutes.

When you taste its decadent risotto or savory stew, it'll seem like our pressure cooker must be performing crazy microwave “magic” to make five-star meals in just minutes. But in reality, it all comes down to simple science.

The Tupperware® Microwave Pressure Cooker uses microwave energy to create pressure—and that pressure raises the temperature up to 233°F/112°C for faster cooking. So when you pull back the curtain (read: open the lid): Presto! You’ve got flavorful, restaurant-quality dishes in under 30 minutes flat. (And the best part? Zero kitchen skills and minimal effort required.) From hearty chili to succulent pulled pork to tender butter chicken and beyond, this device delivers quality and convenience.

Benefits

Versatile cooking: From fresh or frozen veggies to meats, fish, and even dried legumes—whip up tender, delicious dishes with ease!

What's in the Box

Pressure cooker base: Crafted from durable, BPA-free materials, the main cooking vessel is designed to withstand high temperatures and pressure.

Locking lid: The secure lid locks in place and features a pressure indicator and release valve for safe cooking.

Silicone gasket: A fancy word for the airtight seal, the gasket maintains the pressure levels inside the cooker.

Instruction manual: For those who like to dive deep, we’ve included detailed guidelines on how to use your Tupperware® pressure cooker.

How to Use

Prep: Chop and cut, season and marinate! Make sure your ingredients are ready to go.

Load: Add your ingredients and the right amount of liquid to the pressure cooker (a minimum of 5 oz./150 mL of liquid per 10 minutes of cooking time).

Seal and cook: Secure the cooker’s lid, lock the handle, and then microwave according to your recipe's instructions.

Wait: We know you’re hungry, but before opening the lid, please wait until the pressure indicator valve is fully down.

Enjoy: Mmm, mmm, mmm. It’s time to serve your delicious dish directly from the cooker.

Care Instructions

Let the cooker cool: Don’t start cleaning until the cooker is back at room temperature.

Disassemble: Remove the lid, gasket (seal), and any other detachable parts.

Clean: Give all pieces a quick rinse to remove any residue. Then, throw them in the dishwasher, or wash by hand with mild soap and a soft sponge.

Dry: Make sure all parts are fully dry before reassembling.

Store: To promote airflow (and prevent any *non-delicious* smells), make sure to store your cooker with the lid loose or off.

Check, check, and check again: The gasket (aka the silicone seal) is an essential element in your cooker—if it breaks, the pressure cannot be properly maintained. Always keep an eye out for wear and tear, and keep this part away from sharp items like knives.
