Pressure cookers are great. Most people are afraid of that contraption until they've used it for a while. I was scared to death of the one we had when I was a kid. I don't know how we got it but I was the only one in my family that used it. The truth is that those things don't operate at a very high pressure. They are less than half the pressure of properly inflated car tires.

I don't want a multi-cooker because that's just more clutter in the kitchen but I'd certainly spring for a cheap aluminum if I could use it on my range. It won't work on my range because it's an induction range and aluminum does not work on it. Unfortunately, the steel ones are too expensive for me. That's the breaks.

I have an old fashioned pressure cooker that I use quite often, never had a
problem with it.

Me too. Pressure cooking is da bomb. People that dis pressure cookers are folks that don't know how to use them. I don't know nothing about the new multi-pots. I suppose I'd use them if someone gave me one.

For full 5 sense veneration of the female of our species no sexual act surpasses cunnilingus! That's what I love about eating pussy, the sight, smell, taste, sound and tactile all at once! That's my happy place!!!

Pressure cookers are great. Most people are afraid of that contraption until
they've used it for a while. I was scared to death of the one we had when I
was a kid. I don't know how we got it but I was the only one in my family
that used it. The truth is that those things don't operate at a very high
pressure. They are less than half the pressure of properly inflated car
tires.

I don't want a multi-cooker because that's just more clutter in the kitchen
but I'd certainly spring for a cheap aluminum if I could use it on my range.
It won't work on my range because it's an induction range and aluminum does
not work on it. Unfortunately, the steel ones are too expensive for me.
That's the breaks.

Same here, but I was intrigued with the Instant Pot because it seems to cook
a variety of things that I would never think to do in my Pressure cooker.

I wonder what kinds of things it does that a pressure cooker can't do
Ophelia. Curious, and this is just one persons opinion, but it makes me
wonder.

you just need to get a new cookbook for pressure cookers or search the
'Net. I never thought of some of those things either. I think I may
have one of those cookbooks around here somewhere. If I find it I
will post occasionally.

I have an old Presto cookbook somewhere too. I haven't seen it for a long

I have the old Mirro book but what I am talking about are all the new
cookbooks coming out for the new electronic pressure cookers. I know
there are recipes for how to cook a one-pot meal where you dump the
uncooked pasta in along with everything else. I'm trying to think of
other things I have seen. I'll go check my cookbooks.

I wonder what kinds of things it does that a pressure cooker can't do
Ophelia. Curious, and this is just one persons opinion, but it makes me
wonder.

Thanks for that, I have saved it to read properly later. I am hoping Nellie

Yer surprised?

It's all about consumerism. Come out with a new idea fer the sheep to
consume and everybody and their dog will jump on board.

New product? Needs new books. Doesn't matter that the "New product"
has been in production --in a different form, perhaps-- fer eons. It's
NEW today ....along with the books.

Yeah. I didn't throw away an "Intstant Pot" (electric pressure cooker)
and a couple o' 'Crock Pots', over five yrs ago.

Why did I toss it when a pressure cooker is almost 'de rigueur' at my
altitude? Cuz it did NOT have the 'manual' which pointed out its
'safety features'. If only I'd purchased the book! Oh ....wait, a book
hadn't been written, yet.

Lady, I've forgotten more about pressure cookers than you will ever
know!

Apparently not. I still know how to use the shift key to make

I couldn't find a cookbook for this around here but all you have to do
is Google something like:
Pressure cooker lasagna
Pressure cooker mac and cheese
I'll give you a link. As you read through you'll see they say
'Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker' The important thing about these
recipes is to get the hang of the cooking times for a combo dish that
uses pasta
https://temeculablogs.com/pressure-c...gna-casserole/

If you have a pressure cooker I am sure you already know how to do
meats, stews, soups, fruits and vegetables. I know there are recipes
out there for cakes and similar.

I have the old Mirro book but what I am talking about are all the new
cookbooks coming out for the new electronic pressure cookers. I know
there are recipes for how to cook a one-pot meal where you dump the
uncooked pasta in along with everything else. I'm trying to think of
other things I have seen. I'll go check my cookbooks.

This is as God intended we cook. Over a fire. A pressure cooker allows one to come home after work or school and make a pot roast for dinner. I can't do that since I no longer have one. I have to start early or cook for the next day. That kind of sucks but that's the reality of life sans pressure cooker.

I remember in the cookbook there is a recipe for cake, but I have never made
cake in it. I mostly make stews, meats, poultry, stock and things like that.
I'm not sure I've ever made fruit in it either.

Oh wow mom, bet you the family couldn't wait for a pot roast
dinner. ;-o
Individually chosen frozen dinners would be better and timed to

I'm thinking the advantage of any of the new electronic pressure
cookers is the removable non-stick liner pot. When you make something
cheesy that would be an advantage. I bet they also have the ability
to keep warm and that means they could also function as a slow cooker.
I don't like the electronic ones because by sitting on my counter top
they are really too high up for me to work with.
I like my stove top cooker.

My mom was a very smart woman. As I got older I took over the dinner preparation. The mechanism and implementation for this was not known to me and happened so slowly as to be imperceptible to my developing brain. I would come home from school and make a pot roast. The pressure cooker made it very fast. I have a lot of fondness for them. The ignorant will dis this vessel because well, that's what the ignorant do best.

My parents had more important things to do than make food. My dad was building military installations on places like Guam, Midway, and Kwajalein. I can't say what my mom was doing for the Army but it involved computers. My dad said she had a higher security clearance than his. Neither of them brought their work home with them but that's just as well - it could have gotten them arrested.

It's the 10% of you guys that ruin it for the rest of us! Hee hee.

As far as these multi-cookers goes, they might work better in your land. Most appliances will operate better over there because your stuff has nearly twice the power available than ours does. We held back against the Brit invasions twice so we should have gotten the super turbo power system and you should be stuck with ours. Hee hee.

I'm surprised Popeye hasn't edified us with the virtues of using a 50
gallon Navy pot with steam jackets ... It can cook up hundreds of pounds
of food in as many milliseconds

I'm sorry you missed my posts above.
Google for
Pressure cooker cakes
Pressure cooker pasta recipes
Pressure cooker casseroles
Pressure cooker lasagna
Pressure cooker mac and cheese
(be sure to read the sidebars that link to other pressure cooker
recipes)
You should be able to pick up some ideas that apply to you. As
always, if a recipe calles for a sauce in a jar or can, or if it calls
for so many ounces of ready made stock or so many ounces of a creamed
soup, or canned vegetables or broth concentrate, you know that you are
able to substitute fresh, or home made items.

I'm sure you're right about that, keeping warm etc.

I'll look around for my book and if I find it I will put the recipe here.

Making a cake in a pressurized environment is an interesting idea. I think they should make ovens that can be pressurized. The rational for this is that you can cook the cake in a steamy environment rather than a vented on resulting in a moister cake. The added pressure will also prevent collapsing of the cake when cooling it down. As we all know, hot air will contract when cooled. If the air is pressurized, you might be able to counteract this effect. This bears investigation.

It's the 10% of you guys that ruin it for the rest of us! Hee hee.

As far as these multi-cookers goes, they might work better in your land.
Most appliances will operate better over there because your stuff has nearly
twice the power available than ours does. We held back against the Brit
invasions twice so we should have gotten the super turbo power system and
you should be stuck with ours. Hee hee.

Make toast! Crisp up anything, any cooking that involves DRYING the food.
