Seems to me that Kuhn-Rikon and Fagor get good marks. Is a 4-quart
large enough? If that's what you've been using, I guess so. :-0) It
just seems small considering that you can't fill them to the brim.

Speaking of pressure cookers, I cooked tonight's spuds in mine -- about
4 minutes. Done. Parsley-buttered new potatoes to accompany the dumb
dry porkchops. In a trice.
