Amazon Basics Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker, 4 Litre, Silver

Product Information

When it comes to getting perfectly cooked rice that’s fluffy and soft but not too soft, it’s one of our dedicated rice cookers that you need in your collection of kitchen gadgets. Our large capacity designs are just the thing for larger households – while a handy keep warm function means you can get on with prepping other parts of the meal without worrying about the rice going cold. This multicooker from Cuisinart goes up to 15 psi and won top scores in our slow cooker test, making the most tender beef stew out of all other multi-cookers. Experts loved how simple it was to use — the large LCD screen makes it easy to read each function and the clearly labeled buttons are lit making everything easy to see. The timer allows you to see exactly how much more cooking time remains before completion and once finished, a new stopwatch will start showing the time that the food has remained in the cooker. When coming to pressure, progress bars appear on the screen to let you know what stage the machine has reached. The same will happen when it is releasing pressure — bars will lessen until all pressure is released.

In terms of large-scale cooking, opt for the Kuhn Rikon Pressure Cooker.

If you grew up in the seventies or eighties then chances are you have slightly terrifying memories of a pressure cooker ominously rattling away on the stove, making all manner of strange noises.Even if you’ve only got a compact kitchen space with which to work, choosing to buy a small pressure cooker could be a fantastic investment. You could transform your cooking experience with a Prestige pressure cooker, taking all the hassle out of your favourite recipes and turning a formerly time-consuming task into a tasteful delight. CHOICE OF SIZE - Available in 4 litre capacity, great for couples or individual servings, or the larger 6 litre capacity, which is the perfect size for families, providing up to 8-10 servings. Any Pressure Cooker works as a tightly sealed chamber, generating and trapping steam as its contents are heated up. As they accumulate, water molecules forming the steam start to accumulate and increase the pressure inside. Thanks to their size and versatility, Pressure Cookers are ideal for Batch Cooking, particularly through braising and stewing.

A 6L capacity provides the perfect amount of portions for a large family, making meal times that much easier As Director of the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab, Nicole Papant oniou has tested dozens of multicookers, slow cookers, and air fryers.
