Starting in the 1930s, two generations of busy cooks employed pressure cookers to prepare family members meals. The next generation, freighted with memories of valves dancing and hissing on stovetops, then snubbed pressure cookers. News flash--pressure cookers have come back, these old valves replaced by contemporary versions that make certain safety when delivering the speed, ease, and nutritional advantages of pressure cooking.
This heavyweight, stainless-steel beauty is a fine example of contemporary engineering and style. Its mirror finish gleams, and its black handles, such as a loop manage for two-handed lifting, remain cool. Pressure cooking traps steam to heat foods at temperatures larger than boiling. This cooker has an aluminum disk sandwiched by stainless steel in its base to speed the approach even even more through fast heat conductivity. It is safe on electric, gas, ceramic, and induction stovetops. Tiny water is needed, so nutrients, flavor, and color are not boiled away. Vegetables emerge vibrantly colored from the steamer basket insert. Stews, soups, beans--even meat loaf, pork chops, and desserts like bread pudding--come out tasty and nutritious. (Recipes included.) Meats can be browned in the pot before the lid is locked on, and the pot can be used with out the lid. The operating valve offers high and low pressure settings for cooking foods at perfect speeds.
Safety measures abound. The lid twists onto the pot, with a rubber gasket making certain a tight seal. A lock secures lid to pot. A vent releases steam if pressure builds too high, as does a valve that also locks the lid when any pressure whatsoever is inside the cooker. An additional device indicates pressure and gently releases steam during cooking.
Cleanup is a bit complex. Hand wash pot, gasket, and lid with a mild detergent. Lightly oil the gasket. Get rid of and clean the operative valve. This minor cleaning inconvenience, nonetheless, should really not overshadow the significant comfort of pressure cooking. --Fred Brack
