Pressure cookers have had a long history, with busy cooks relying on them since the 1930s. However, the next generation developed a negative perception due to the old valves hissing and dancing on stovetops. Now, pressure cookers have made a comeback with modern versions that prioritize safety while still providing the speed, ease, and nutritional benefits of pressure cooking. Not only does pressure cooking save 70 percent of the energy typically consumed, but it also produces delicious and healthy meals.

Our stainless-steel pressure cooker is a prime example of contemporary engineering and style. With its mirror finish and cool black handles, including a loop handle for easy lifting, it adds elegance to your kitchen. The pressure-cooking method traps steam to heat foods at temperatures higher than boiling, allowing for faster cooking times. The aluminum disk in the base, sandwiched by stainless steel, further accelerates the process through fast heat conductivity. Additionally, it is safe to use on electric, gas, ceramic, and induction stovetops.

One of the major advantages of pressure cooking is that it requires minimal water, preventing the loss of nutrients, flavor, and color. Vegetables come out vibrant and full of life when cooked using the steamer insert. From stews and soups to beans, meatloaf, pork chops, and desserts like bread pudding, everything tastes delicious and remains nutritious. The pressure cooker also provides the option to brown meats before locking the lid or using the pot without the lid.

The operating valve conveniently displays high and low pressure, allowing for precise adjustments in heat according to the type of food being cooked. After cooking, the pressure can be released slowly by letting the cooker sit, released normally by pressing the pressure indicator, or released quickly by running tepid water on the lid's rim. Safety measures are thoroughly incorporated into the design, with a twist-on lid, a rubber gasket for a tight seal, and a vent and valve that release excess steam and lock the lid when pressure is present.

Cleaning the pressure cooker requires a small amount of effort. Simply hand wash the pot, gasket, and lid with mild detergent and lightly oil the gasket. The valve is usually self-cleaning, but disassembly may be required if food passes through it. While cleaning can be slightly inconvenient, the numerous benefits and convenience of pressure cooking far outweigh this minor drawback.
