Cooking Tips High Altitude Cooking Due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes, foods tend to take longer to cook. Therefore, recipe adjustments should be made in some cases.

Try making the adjustments below for successful recipes. Take note of the changes that work best and mark your recipes accordingly.
