Same! Pressure cookers produce really disgusting food.

It's not the appliance's fault if you are a terrible cook.

I am quite confident in my cooking skills as I went to culinary school. But crock pots and pressure cookers ruin most food. They are good in very specific instances, but almost no home cook who wants to make good tasting food needs one.

If you actually went to culinary school, you would not be on the DCUM cooking forum, you would be on chef talk with all the other real chefs. Go try to make your idiotic imposter statement there and watch how fast you are crushed by the real chefs.

You can believe what you want. I did go. It was a second career for me after being a lawyer.

i completely agree and I did not go to culinary or law school Both are made for people in a time crunch or limited cooking skills.

As an Indian cook, your ignorance is outstanding. I guess that is what is to be expected when dealing with the average American.

Lawyer to culinary school person here (btw, I do not consider myself a chef; I just did the classes not the intership and didn't graduate, plus I do not work). You are taking this much too personally. If the IP works for you, great. No need to insult. Happy Holidays!

Im a NP and Dutch, and we use Pressure Cookers all the time. As a matter of fact, my mom gave me one upon HS graduation. I've also been to India several times and it is a large country with an extremely complex cuisine and they use PCs all the time.

You of all people, if you indeed went to am actual culinary school, should know that Indian cuisine is some of the most complex in the world.

The statement aas very typically miopically American. Im sure its hard for you to see, since you probably have very little exposure to the world outside of your immediate experience.

What? Indian food is awesome. But I suspect that if OP's wife was making a lot of it, she would already have a pressure cooker. That doesn't change the fact that the typical home cook is going to make nasty food in the IP. Go look at 99% of the IP recipes.

Only if you don't know how to cook or select decent recipes.

I went to culinary school.

So did Sandra Lee. Without more, I'm not impressed.

She did not.

Oh? Tell us about your TV show then? Sandra Lee is laughing all the way to the bank.

I quite like the idea of having people who went to culinary school in here on this forum helping those of us who did not go to culinary school. Not sure why the chefs only have to hang out with other chefs and not help the rest of us. That's what (USUALLY) makes this forum so nice.

I have an instant pot, a vitamix, some pots, a couple oven pans and some cast iron pans. That's what I need, and I cook from scratch every night for my family. No space or use for other crap.

Seriously. I think it’s the same lady that keeps calling everyone dummy and idiot. It’s foul and makes me sad to think she probably calls her kids names too.

Don't you think it's kind of misogynistic of you to assume it's a woman? Possibly also rather dumb to think there is one person on DCUM that calls people dumb? (sorry, kind of hard to resist that)

I find it a useful replacement for the slow cooker but I still mostly cook with it on weekends - when you consider ingredient prep time like chopping aromatics and vegetables, time to pressurize, and time to depressurize, it's not going to be 30 minutes start to finish. But it does make it easier to cook things like beans or chicken soups and curries much more quickly so I don't have to plan ahead, I can start after an afternoon grocery trip. Having the saute function is brilliant for minimizing doses compared to the slow cooker, where you have to saute aromatics or brown meat in a separate pot, and if you turn it on while adding ingredients it speeds up time to pressure.

So all in all not as life changing as I'd hoped, and I am still not sure how to adapt some stovetop recipes for it, but an upgrade in convenience.
