What Wikipedia says

A pressure cooker is a sealed vessel used for cooking food with the use of high pressure steam and water or a water-based liquid, in a process called pressure cooking. The high pressure limits boiling and permits cooking at higher temperatures, allowing food to be cooked faster than at normal pressure.
