Tower 4200 Pressure cooker

Suggest you find the address for Tower from Google or similar, or go and look at one in a department store. Thn ask them for an instruction book. Pressure cookers are quite easy to use but the actual sequence of steaming and pressurising varies a bit from make to make.
 
Hi Chris,

Should explain that I've been veggie since the 70's, but when I was a student and ate meat - then a pressure cooker was a great way to boil or stew the more robust cuts of meat, together with veg, in a sensible time.

So if you like robust meals in the winter - beef in beer, gammon and real pease pudding, hot pot, and that sort of thing - then a pressure cooker is great.

If all you want from it is to cook your veggies, then it won't save a significant amount of time - because a good part of the total cooking time is heating the water up from cold to boiling.

And cooking tender veggies in a pressure cooker is quite difficult - you can't take the lid off to see if things are done as you like (although it is quite exciting for a few seconds) - so a bit of experimentation is needed.

Get a book, understand the safety aspects, and try a few robust meals at home.

Robert
