Can I cook grains in a cooker?
In the satvic lifestyle, it is not recommended to use a pressure cooker for cooking grains. This is because cooking grains at high pressure in a pressure cooker can lead to nutrient loss. Instead, it is advised to cook grains in a clay pot or in any utensils that are typically used for cooking grains. This method helps preserve the nutritional value of grains and aligns with the principles of the satvic lifestyle, which emphasizes a natural and wholesome approach to food preparation.
