Electric Pressure Cooking

1. Find the right Electric Pressure Cooker.

As with almost all products, electric pressure cookers come in a variety of options. The most important factors that separate them are price, speed, and versatility. If you're relatively new to the world of pressure cooking, a base model with pre-programmed settings may suit you better than a version with fully customizable pressure and temperature settings. Simpler devices also tend to be more cost-effective, while still performing the primary function you want.

2. Save meal time.

With an electric pressure cooker, you can significantly reduce the time it takes to prepare meals. Most cookers have a delay timer, so you can put oatmeal in the cooker at night and set it to start cooking before you get up in the morning. Some even have Bluetooth settings that allow you to program the cooker from your phone. Even if you don't think ahead, your cookware can help you save time. Want to make some chili for dinner but don't have time for it to simmer? Your cooker can be done in under an hour, and you don't even have to check it while cooking. Did you realize you forgot to take the meat out of the fridge? Fear not, a pressure cooker can defrost and cook your meat in under an hour.

3. Discover new dietary solutions.

Electric pressure cookers have a variety of functions that you can use to meet your unique needs. Want a healthy, quick breakfast for your family? You can cook oatmeal and quinoa, hard-boiled eggs, or even quiche in the pressure cooker. Need some great dinners without the chaos and constant monitoring? Try making mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, or a one-pot dinner. You can even bake desserts and make drinks and sauces in the cooker.
