Our First Pressure Cooker
Last week I bought a Pressure Cooker at Walmart to celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary. It's a Farberware 6 quart "7-1 programmable pressure cooker". I like it because it can also be used as a crock pot slow cooker.
The first thing we cooked was a pork roast. It fell apart but tasted great.
Next we want to try the slow crock pot setting, maybe on chicken cutlets.
It's a new toy for old folks. I even want to try and cook, which is something I usually leave for Lynette who loves to cook.
Any favorite recipes you'd like to share?

Let's see, I don't have one but my Dad cooks pinto beans in his pressure cooker, I think.
ReplyDeleteI remember we had one as a kid, man in those days, it scared me to death, I always thought it was going to blow up!
This is the first time we've had a slow cook and pressure cooker.
DeleteHave fun with it! I've never used a pressure cooker but we picked up a slower cooker last month and I am loving it. Your machine looks very impressive.
ReplyDeleteIt's not too expensive for what you get.
Deletedoes indeed sound like a new toy to cook with. never had one of those as yet.
ReplyDeleteI'll see how it works out.
DeleteI've always been scared of pressure cookers.
ReplyDeleteThe new ones claim to be safer.
DeleteSlow cookers are good to use. I love mine. Well, I used to.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to enjoy it.
DeleteMy mother used her pressure cooker when she was canning. I like the slow cooker for all those wonderful one pot meals.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds good.
DeleteHappy Anniversary to you both.
ReplyDeleteI've not had a pressure cooker, although I know those who use them love them.
Slow cookers, are great, especially for one pot meals.
