Re: NEED HELP WITH PRESSURE COOKING VEGETABLES....PLEASE

TO ALL THOSE THAT RESPONDED TO MY POST.......THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS.

 

Since I was determined to get this PC to work for me I read and re-read the booklet and even watched some youtube PC ads and videos on electric PC cooking.  Each manufacturer has different buttons and I was having a problem with which button to press for the dishes I wanted to make, and how to change the time of the cooking. I read so many positive reviews about pressure cooker cooking that I just couldn't give up.  The complaints were always associated with the button selection or the booklet that came with each unit........which was exactly my angst.  BUT HALLELUJAH......I finally figured it out.  So in the last 2 days I have made, lentil soup, Italian wedding soup, Quinoa, BBQ pork and my DH's favorite, fresh Kale........I AM LOVING THIS THING!!!!!!!  I have lots of Butternut Squash and Zucchini, Peppers and Eggplant from our garden and I plan on making soups and ratatouille to freeze.   As I said above I sincerely thank you all for coming to my aid.

About the ceramic stove, my Jenn Air does not recommend PC cooking on its' surface.  My kitchen is large so I have plenty of countertop room for appliances and lots of room to store them when needed.  I'm hoping they come out with a stainless steel insert for this model.  If not when I purchase a bigger one I'll make sure it has one.  If you have any good recipes, please share I'll be looking for them.  Gerri

@Gerri S

If thinking about a bigger model, check out the Instant Pot brand.  All their models come with a stainless steel insert.  I adore mine. Quality machine.
