I just bought a pressure cooker, primarily for cooking beans and grains. For what else should I use it?

Chicken stock. Veal stock, if you make that.

Sad as it is, since I decided to give up eating veal more than once or twice per year, I stopped cooking with veal stock. Shocking, I know.
I was thinking about cooking brisket in the PC. Friends say they cook roasts, and I may try one of those Italian stove top recipes that involve just a little liquid with the meat. I used to cook a lot of Marcella Hazan recipes and will look for inspiration there.
I have been told that, somewhat counterintuitively, risotto comes out pretty well. Have not tried it myself.Originally Posted by lawyerdad
I prefer it in a rice cooker if you're going to go that route. I think it lends its self better to the slower cooking.

OK, take a live lobster, put in about 2/3 cup of sauternes (or other sweet wine) and 1/3 cup of OJ. Add some aromatic vegetables cut nicely, a tablespoon or so of butter (or olive oil) and some ginger (if you like it.) Close the lid, put over high heat. When it hits the first bar of pressure, or hits pressure set to the lower level, lower the heat and keep at this pressure for three minutes. Then remove from heat and leave another three minutes. Release the pressure, take the lobster out and let it cool a touch. Meanwhile, boil the liquid to reduce it a little and finish cooking the vegetables. Crack the lobster, put in a bowl and spoon the juices over. It will be perfect.
Also, like Kyle said, braise stuff, but be careful because it can get pretty dry. Pot au feu, which your loved one would detest, is fantastic in a pressure cooker, especially if made with oxtails.

does it being alive effect the cooking time?Originally Posted by Rambo
No idea. I wouldn't cook a lobster I didn't kill, though. If you wanted to pierce its brain first, the cooking time ought to be the same. Don't know why you would.
