/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I just use this. I don't like having lots of different electrical appliances everywhere, and this doubles as a normal pot. Pressure cookers are great because they can turn less expensive cuts of meat soft and juicy. You can make a stew or a soup in under 45 minutes that would otherwise have had to have been on the stove bubbling away for half a day. It's incredibly convenience in this way. Just be careful with vegetables because it can literally annihilate some. Potatoes go from raw to being on the verge of complete disintegration in just like 10 minutes. Onion can disappear too. I usually pressure cook the meat with some herbs or spices or whatever and then when it's ready I let the pressure go down, open it up, add vegetables and then cook them until they're soft. Really nice and easy stews with cheap beef, mutton, pork bones, ribs, etc.
