Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker Review
Although I bought this pressure cooker because I thought my daughter Heather has good judgement and she uses one…I also remember growing up with my mom, Rosalind, cooking so many delicious meals with one. I have made Italian Beef and a pot roast. OMG, were they good! You can use less energy, save time and retain all the vitamins while cooking a warm, comforting dinner for your family. As I write this, I listen to our wonderful Roosevelt-esque president, Barrack Hussein Obama. I have heard political analysts comparing him to no less than President Lincoln, et al, Right now we are forced to getting back to basics by our economy. Let’s all use products like a pressure cooker and our inborn, American, common sense and maintain this “basics” way of cooking and living and perhaps we’ll never have to go back to an inflated economy and its subsequent fall. Ok, I might have gone off track but buy this pressure cooker or one like it and make some warm, quick, family meals and live the good life that we have so much access to but possibly are not appreciating and enjoy your life.
New to pressure cooking… BUT. The top needs to be giggled about to have it lock into place. It is a nuisance. The pressure valve seems to protrude a bit to much into the underside of the top. Otherwise, it seems to work just fine. The bottom is nice and heavy and I haven’t experienced any burning.
I bought my pressure cooker in the late 70’s. It still works great. I think I have replaced the sealing ring only once. Note: the cooking times for dried beans are way too long. I suggest a cookbook like Bean Cookery by Bill & Sue Deeming. For example, the Presto cookbook says to cook (presoaked) black beans for 35 minutes, but they only need 5-8 minutes.
Get the Presto. They’re all the same. It’s a simple design, a pot and lid. I’ve been using them for 20 years and the expensive ones are no better than the Presto- Only an amateur cook would believe different. The Prestos cook just as good and just as fast as the Rikons. My kitchen is filled with the best and most expensive equipment money can buy, but when it comes to pressure cookers, it’s not like other cookware where you “get what you pay for.” They’re all the same (although I don’t recommend the electric ones as they have a tendency to break down). Save your money for the good espresso maker… don’t waste it on expensive pressure cookers. Get the Presto.
