I recently replaced my Jenn-Air downdraft with a Bosch Induction cooktop. I love cooking with induction. Since I had to replace all my cookware I decided to get a stainless steel pressure cooker, and have found several things I like to cook with pressure over traditional. One thing that cooks so much faster is steel cut oats, I used to make them in a rice-cooker but now they just take 5 minutes at pressure and then let pressure drop, they are perfect and so much faster. I have made Pinto beans several times, fast and tasty. Friday I decided to make some of those boxed Au Gratin potatoes with pressure, can't mess them up I thought so proceed. I chopped an onion added some pepper to the ingredients as directed on the box. I couldn't believe how much better they tasted, my hubby usually doesn't like the boxed potatoes and he even said he liked them.

So, do you use a pressure cooker? What recipes do you make? Anything that's your favorite?
