What to look for in a pressure cooker<\/h2>\nChoose a dependable manufacturer<\/h3>\n
Any portions of a pressure cooker will wear out over time and will need to be replaced on occasion. This is the main reason we advise against buying a no-name brand multi cooker. There are tens of thousands of requests from consumers looking for spare pieces.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, the no-name manufacturer has always vanished or gone out of existence, rendering a cooker that only needs a $10 component totally worthless.<\/p>\n
Therefore, that’s why the first thing you can do is look for a reputable pressure cooker maker that supplies spare parts and is easy to contact.<\/p>\n
Has at least two pressure: high and low<\/h3>\n
In this case, it is best to make sure that your pressure cooker has at least two pressure cooking settings \u2013 both high and low. Most pressure cookers already pressure cook at “high pressure,” but “low pressure” is necessary when you are pressure cooking delicate foods like eggs, seafood, and pasta \u2013 or just simply when you want to avoid overcooking your vegetables.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, certain products have eight or more pressure settings; the additional pressures are interesting to play with, but no recipes have been written and checked for them.<\/p>\n
Size<\/h3>\n
In approximation, a 6L pressure can be used for six people or less, and an 8L can be used for eight people or less. We usually do not advocate going under 6L unless consumers have a particular circumstance; that way, even though you are cooking for two, you will be able to pressure cook two to three dishes at once by piling them vertically.<\/p>\n
A 3 quart pressure cooker is recommended elsewhere for singles, but it is not usually a smart first choice for a pressure cooker, as you will not want to learn how to pressure cook by adjusting a large number of recipes that are written for 6 or 8 quarts. You will definitely need at least a second accessory cooker to take up the slack whilst your main cooker is occupied until you’ve converted all of your cooking to strain.<\/p>\n
