Cooking Under Pressure

Pressure Cooking. We’ve all heard about this at some point, but not many of us really know what it is or how it works. Pressure cooking represents a new revolution of an old technique. How so? Does making traditional beef stew in 30 minutes sound good compared to the 2 ½ hours it takes the old fashioned way? And for dessert, how about a cheesecake in 30 minutes instead of an hour and 10? Pressure cookers can prepare nearly all foods; including meats, vegetables, pastas and desserts in 1/3 the cooking time. Not only that, this cooking method preserves the natural vitamins and minerals of foods better than any other method. We’ll learn how to make traditional dishes such as beef stew and brisket, three cheese ziti in three (minutes that is!), assorted veggies and of course a delectable orange chocolate cheesecake! Please bring your favorite knives and an apron.
