  • you have to let it vent before putting on the weight. The air inside causes it to not cook correctly

  • @jdekayable No, you don't have to let it vent. It vents itself when the regulator rocks. I've been cooking in pressure cookers for 30 years. I do vent my pressure canner when canning in it. There may be some types of pressure cookers that require venting but I don't think the modern ones like this one do.

  • Finally I came to the right video and it's got my answer. Awesome!!!!!

  • survival beard

  • How nice it is to see a man that knows what to do in the kitchen!!

  • Thanks for this video, very helpful

    I am looking for bowls, like the one you had, for my pressure cooker (Rapide) that i can stack up and cook at least 3 items at once-Rice, veges and one more. any recommendations?

  • @admarketingmanager Veggies will cook in a pressure cooker in a matter of minutes. I don't recommend it because they will be mush by the time the rice is done. Veggies are good cooked in soups or stews. You will need a tall pressure cooker and short/wide bowls and perhaps trivets to place between the bowls. Experiment.

  • I just bought a jiggle-type Everwear pressure cooker a month ago and the first couple of times I used it, the weight jiggled intermittently and steam hissed out. Now when I use it, the weight will jiggle when i am bringing it up to pressure..but when I turn it down to medium steam constantly comes out of the weight and the weight doesn't jiggle at all. Do you have any idea why it is doing this?

  • @asakali I don't know. I'd contact the manufacturer. Check to see if there is anything in the weight, such as a piece of food, that is interfering with the flow.

  • Very interesting technique. However, I cook rice in my rice cooker. I have tried cooking beans in my pressure cooker, and sure enough, you can't stir them, and they burn on the bottom. So now I just use the pressure cooker to soften the hard beans. I have a an old CuisineArt p.c. made in Belgium. Of couse, it is discontinued along with most of the parts. Now CusineArt has a p.c. that is electric! I loved the little gasket on yours. It reminded me of my mother's p.c. in the 1960s.

  • I'm thinking about getting a pressure cooker, Thanks for sharing the bowl technique. And the tip on getting these at estate sales. Is the bowl solid steel? Can it be used on an open fire such as a grill? If so can you do a video on that.

  • @ladybugsing If you mean the bowl I use inside the pot, it is solid stainless steel, what many of your cooking pots are made of. It is perfectly fine to use in a grill, over a flame, in an oven, etc. If you are talking about the pressure cooker itself, it also is stainless steel and can be used over a fire. The only problem to watch out for is the handle which is hard plastic which melt if it gets too hot. Protect the handle from direct contact with an open flame.

  • Once, I overloaded my pressure cooker with too many turkey wings. The sudden release of turkey flesh, water, and seasonings up to the kitchen ceiling in a spewing plume of scalding hot water was indeed shocking. Quite a mess to clean up, too. I never overfill my pressure cooker any more. I stop at 2/3's full to give plenty of room between the meat or vegetables and the top of the cooker. ; )

  • Thanks for sharing this. I teach pressure cooking with the modern spring valve pressure cooker but have not cooked brown rice in a bowl yet. But now I will. I share my videos here on You Tube at TheVQ.

  • This bloke is fantastic. He actually explains the knobs on this thing; I'm glad he made this video. I had no idea this was useful for rice w/ th correct amount of water or expecially canning. 4 stars!

  • I just picked up an old pressure cooker from a yard sale. It's a Presto 7B 16qt. I can't seem to find an instruction manual. Can you tell me please if it's just necessary to follow the common safety measures and that I should be fine? (thick aluminum)

  • @strtforward1 Yes, they all work the same.
