Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker
Amazon.com Review
Everyone is looking for fast and healthy meal solutions these days, and the tried and true pressure cooker is still one of the speediest, most energy efficient, and low-fat ways to cook. This model from Chef's Design promises to cook food up to four times faster than other methods while using up to 40-percent less energy. And, with its lid locked on tight, this pressure cooker retains food's vital minerals and vitamins while producing flavorful meals.
The cooker is made of brilliantly polished 18/10 stainless steel and has an encapsulated base made from an aluminum/steel alloy to promote even cooking and to allow use with any type of cooktop: gas, electric, ceramic, or induction. This gigantic 10-3/10-quart size cooks mammoth portions of lentils or rice to feed to a crowd or freeze for later. But lest folks think that pressure cookers are only for making vegetarian foods, the included recipe guide sets the record straight with complete instructions on how to cook delicious carnivorous treats, such as herb-roasted chicken or meatball stew.
For operation, the lid easily twists into place and secures with a safety lock. A valve on top of the handle emits steam when the pressure cooker's contents begin to heat up, signaling that the heat should be lowered and kept at a simmer for the duration of cooking. Two interchangeable valves are packaged with this cooker for regular or high pressure cooking. Four independent safety systems regulate the pressure and prevent the cooker from exploding throughout the kitchen. Included with this cooker is a perforated stainless-steel steamer basket for steaming fish or poaching fruit, a stainless-steel trivet for elevating the basket, and a steel rod for cleaning the valves. Additionally, the cooker comes with a vented tempered glass lid so it can be used as a regular stockpot. The manufacturer provides a 10-year limited warranty on this pressure cooker. --Cristina Vaamonde

| 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful  Excellent Pressure Cooker, By NLB "nb" (colorado) - See all my reviews Still use my 23 quart for canning but for a meal, this ones it! This cooker just saves so much time. 9 of 13 people found the following review helpful Use with caution, By Amazon Verified Purchase There are some great things about this pot:It's made from stainless steel which is easy to keep clean and which has none of the corrosion problems that plague aluminum. The price is right. You can pay a lot for a fancy Swiss model-four times as much in fact and in this case, you don't get what you pay for. It will add a dimension to your cooking. Dishes that used to take all day can be cooked in an hour or two and homemade stocks and soups will return to your table. All of the safety problems that used to come with pressure cookers have been solved and there's no reason to deny you and your family all that good food. Bear in mind that this larger size cooker needs an appropriately sized burner and that any browning needs to be done cautiously.

The big issue is time and any home cook reading a recipe for, let's say, chicken stock is bound to get jumpy reading about simmering and skimming for an hour or three. When the instructions suggest reducing the volume by a half or more, most of us are out the door.Unfortunately, store-bought stocks are rarely any good. Some of them are too salty, others just taste weird.Pressure cookers make it possible to have good frozen, concentrated stock on hand whenever you need it without investing a day in the process. For that reason alone, every serious cook should have one (or be able to borrow one.) Lynn Hoffman, author of New Short Course in Wine,The |
