The cosori is fantastic. Don't be scared as it is not like the old ones. Also it would save you money as it is not always on the heat. It gets upto pressure and then switches of, loses pressure and switches back on until it gets upto pressure again. I thimk that in a thirty minute pressure cook it was in reality only useing the Electric for ten to twelve minutes.
Thanks didn't realise about the saving money on electricity, that's fantastic😊, I have used it a couple of times but I will use it more often now as I am getting used to it😂🤗thanks for watching i have 89 subscribers now 🎉
Good luck.! I am with you .i hv just bought one and I am terrified. Hubbie thinks I am daft… but I remember the old ones blowing up too. So … looking forward to staying with you on this one! X
Hi Dawn good to find your channel. I’ve just used my pressure cooker tonight for first time. I remember my mum having beetroot all over her ceiling I think they are safer these days lol. The ham looked so tender. I must admit I was scared to death lol. I did pork ribs and they were fab.
That's Brilliant, I was just having a little chuckle to myself imagining the beetroot on the ceiling. The pork ribs sound nice must give them a go next :)
Dot from Derbyshire Hi Dawn, I'm glad it's not just me that is nervous of using this model of pressure cooker. I remember having stew on the kitchen ceiling with one of the old types back in the eighties. My pressure cooker is still in the box and has been there for 4 months. Your video has given me the confidence to try it, as a widowed pensioner, and a lover of the one pot wonder I really must get it out of it's box and get cooking. You made it look really easy although I must admit the get of steam is frightening. I have seen some people laying a tea towel gently over the vent to help . I keep meaning to email the Cosori help line to ask what they think of that? Any comments about that? Thank you for sharing your video, keep them coming I will watch especially if they feature the Cosori. Lots of love from Derbyshire, Dot x.
Sorry to hear about your loss, it is having a bit of confidence to have a go. May be have a friend round for the first go. The tea towel sounds a good idea too, not seen anyone use it but asking Cosori is a very good idea, thank you so much for watching :) happy cooking.
Can anyone explain to me how to, for example, cook carrots for around five minutes and then add, say, cabbage and broccoli for a minute or two only without having to go through the preheating again on this Cosori pressure cooker unit? Any advice would be gratefully received. Live on my own so was hoping to pretty much do all my veg in the one pot … not having much success so far. I bought a 3 compartment steamer basket for it but not much use if some veg take 5-7 minutes and others take only 1-2. Help please 🤞
Well, my advice if I'm picking it up right what I do is, I start it with the veg that's going to take the longest let's say 12mins, and when I gets down to 5mins I add the veg that will take 5 mins and stop again it I have veg that will only take 2 min. So with all said and done the 12min has alaps and all the veg is done at the same time and all done and tasting beautiful, all hot and nothing over cooked, and because you are adding the veg quickly you shouldn't have a problem with the machine to reheat, hope this is helpful.

@@DawnPorterEscape thank you so much for replying Dawn. It is useful and I am now getting used to the timings, however, the main problem I was having initially was getting the lid to go back on after adding more veg or checking to see if something was fully cooked or needed a bit more time. The lid just would not go on… I think something to do with the steam still coming from the food that was already inside. I have since found out that you have to wait just a little while and do have to apply a bit of pressure on the lid and make sure the button is fully in position of vent and then it will go back on. It seemed like it was some sort of safety feature kicking in that was preventing the lid from going straight back on. I do appear to have mastered it now though and do carrots for 4 minutes and then add the cabbage and cook for a further 3 minutes and it is cooked to absolute perfection for my liking👍👍👍👍 I’m loving it now. I’m even more impressed having watched a RUclips video showing you can cook chicken from frozen … this will be great for me come winter when I look forward to try doing my soups and broths in it. Thank you again for taking time to reply 👍😃👍
@@DawnPorterEscape hi Dawn. Having re-read your message I’m thinking I will give your method a try 🤔 what I’m wondering is how do you stop it, for example, 7 minutes into a cook time set for 12. Do you literally just vent it so far through the cooking to add different veg and then presumably press start again when you’ve added it? Because I’m pressing cancel after it has vented and then it obviously has to go through the preheating cycle again. I’ll keep experimenting cos I think I must still be missing something 🤔
Just ordered one of these!! Looking forward to using it 😊
Good choice! have fun with it Let me Know how you get on :)
