Always put a little oil in the pot and sauté the chicken or any kind of meat for about 15 minutes before you add the other ingredients. Once you add the water and vegetables, then you put the lid on and pressurize the cooker. When you sauté you develop great flavor and a browning.
Thank's Rick for sharing information . On your pressure cooker . I like this one . Want to get me one . My son bought me a air fryer . Got to read about it . Your dinner looks delicious . All of you have a great evening . Good to hear Dexter .
I am SO GOING TO BUY THAT COOKER! I hate the stainless pots. I invariably get the dreaded "BURN" which makes it unfun to cook. The non-sticks are hard to find. Presto makes one, and I knew Farberware did also but the options on Amazon are upwards of $60. This is a heckuva good price for a nice piece of equipment. Good find, Rick! And the chicken/broccoli/potato/cheese dinner looks yummy, BTW.
I have had this same pressure cooker for a few years and absolutely love it. Always use the presets and everything comes out perfectly. Would definitely buy again and nice video. Makes meats and chicken very tender and juicy and saves a lot of oven time. Nice video. Moe (Maureen)
I just now today found the exact same one at my local thrift store for $25. It was missing the Tribbett and what looks like maybe a rice paddle that used to stand up in that holder on the side of this Gizmo but it's still had that little plastic condensation catcher in the back and the insert pot. I think I scored! It turns on I'm just trying to find the right recipe to test it for the first time. Thank you very much for this demonstration.
Hello Lady, sounds like you got a great deal, I really love this pressure cooker, watch my channel I have a few videos using this pressure cooker and lots of other pressure cooker recipes. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Very nice new pressure cooker , happy cooking with it . Farberware does make great pots and pans , my mother loved her set of Farberware . Rick your meal so tasty and good , extra delicious with the bacon and cheese .
Hi Lucy, this is a great pressure cooker for the money, I use the heck out of my farberware multi pot. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my dear friend.
@@CookingwithRick Now you're making me anxious to try mine! I have a beef shank that I want to sear and make bone broth from. The way that I normally do it is to sear it in an extremely hot stainless steel skillet (after rubbing with Diamond Kosher Salt and Nature's Seasoning) and then cook it over top of carrots, onion, celery, ginger, turmeric, and a few spices and herbs for taste. It has to cook for a good 8 to 10 hours at extremely low temperature and a crock pot always ends up boiling the thing to death! That's why I decided to get one of these adjustable cookers. I think it's far safer than leaving it in the oven at 200° inside of a dutch oven for many hours. I'm always scared to death to fall asleep with the oven going. I can't quite figure out how to adjust the temperature on this but I'll figure it out. Happy cooking 👩🍳 ADD/EDIT: I don't just drain the broth and throw all the veggies and meat out. If seared very well and cooked properly the beef shank is one of the most yummilicious cuts that you can possibly purchase but don't tell anybody because it's still the cheapest purchase that you can make and if the meat industry finds out how yummilicious it is the price will go sky high.
Getting caught up. I was a wee bit under the weather and missed this video. I have a crock pot one and I really like it. Looks sharp Rick. Ok back to watching now
Looking good as a meal Rick. Helpful hint, a maybe strap a microphone on Dexter so he can deliver the commentary while you do the work. ha-lol Thanks Rick for the new p/c. Cheers

I set mine the same way, for 10 minutes and after one minute it showed 9:55. That’s 10 hrs not 10 minutes. The 5:00 display is 5 hours. I finally figured it out, I think, I hit PO6 and hit time cook, 10 minutes. 0:10 is what it looked like. Now done ready for my soup tomorrow. Going to try the casserole. I didn't know we had one, it was my late husbands, from my son years ago. I didn't cook, because i physically can't do it much. This was fast.

EDIT/ADDITION: I ordered a stainless steel inner vessel and received it today and I'm absolutely thrilled with it! I purchased it for $19.99 from Best Buy online and that is truly the very best price for a stainless steel vessel for the product. I searched ad nauseam for a stainless steel vessel that would fit the Farberware pressure cooker being reviewed here and I found out that it originally came with the stainless steel vessel. I suspect that when Walmart purchased the product that they reduced the cost by putting a non-stick vessel in instead of a stainless steel. I'm fine with that because the price of this pressure cooker was fabulous and to add the $19.99 stainless steel vessel still has me way ahead of the game when it comes to the instant pots! I had THREE InstantPot pressure cookers. ALL were their top of the line models... the fancy looking red one (crazily overpriced!); the 8-quart Duo Crisp; and a 3 qt miniature one. I'm just going to come right out and tell you the truth... I disliked every single one of them (the Duo Crisp I tried to work with about five times before I gave up). I wasn't even a little bit impressed by ANY of them but especially by the Duo Crisp. I still am baffled about their "air fryer" feature on the Duo Crisp. I just could not get the hang of it. Not only that, but the thing was so heavy and huge that it just wasn't even feasible to store any place in the kitchen let alone on a countertop! Once upon a time I did product testing which is why I had so many of them. Devoted followers of that brand seem to get really great results and I just couldn't. It's my personal opinion that the product is over marketed as they convince people that you can make cheesecakes and every other darn thing in them and I think that's really reaching. Just my experience with trying to make the air fryer feature work was a complete bust. I wouldn't dare waste the ingredients for a cheesecake! That's racking up some serious dollars! I took a stab at trying to fry and brown a cornish hen in it and the result was just not good at all.

Hi K Lee, I really like this pressure cooker I've had no problems with the non stick pot I like it better than stainless steel, the pot is no different than non stick cookware. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
@@CookingwithRick I'm looking forward to trying it. I'm so used to cooking with stainless steel I'm not quite sure what to do with this. I have a stainless steel inner pot on order and I would never use it with the pressure cooker feature for obvious reasons. But I'm so happy to have found something other than those ridiculous InstantPot pots. I say that they're ridiculous because they are grossly overpriced and the company added so many of them that it's almost impossible to make a decision on one. The old adage that "less is more" definitely applies to that particular brand as they are losing market share because people can't make a decision on which one to get. The decision to buy this one was very easy except that the description said that the inner pot was stainless steel. I really dislike non-stick cookware. It just doesn't sear well and starts peeling after a while. I make fond for almost everything. I've never been able to do that in a non-stick product and scraping the bits up off the bottom, even if I could, I'd be fearful would get little portions of whatever the coating is into the food. I'm sure I'll find it enjoyable for other means of cooking but not searing and making gravies, stews, and soups like I had hoped in one vessel. BTW, I turned off the sound on your video and watched it with the captions instead. I'm sound sensitive for some reason. I really enjoyed your video! Thank you, Rick 👩🍳👨🍳
Your parrot made me have flashbacks of my mom's. That thing took more chunks of skin out of me than anything I ever did as a mechanic. Lol. Is it an African Grey? It makes similar sounds to my mom's African Grey so I figured it was one.
We got everything in that video Rick, a really good Pressure Cooker for under £50 or the equivalent there off, we got Dexta (that most awesome flying nephew of mine) and one of your clocks chiming away, what clock was it, Rick?
@brad doyle I can't figure out how you'd even get to the point of deglazing! I bought this online, choosing it because it has the brown/sear feature on it. I made the natural assumption that the cooking vessel would be stainless steel because you cannot brown in non-stick and create anything TO deglaze (fond). While I've only been doing elevated cooking for a relatively short time of my life, I've never been able to create gravies or decent soups or stews without creating a fond by searing. I was super disappointed to see a non-stick cooking vessel when I got the box just a few minutes ago 😥 I can't figure out why he didn't sear the chicken to create fond and deglaze it IF that feature actually works.
Hi there, I just came up on your channel and so far you do the best job at reviewing the pressure cooker. It’s affordable to buy but I want to see if I’m able to use it. However as a blind person I am curious what else the menu holds and if it’s storage the time to cook. I am currently trying to make my dogs meals and looking for something to be able to cook them in but it seems like every single one of these little devices has a lot of buttons so I’m just curious to see if it keeps the time stored when you program it. Annie advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance
@Angie Aldana I applaud you for making all of your little dog's meals! I very much dislike feeding canned or otherwise dog food and feel that they are entitled to the same fresh things that we enjoy and nourish our bodies with. I'm sorry that I can't give you any advice meant on how to work with the buttons on the cooker. I would speculate that somebody could put Braille on top of the buttons for you so that you would be able to feel them. Wishes for a wonderful day!
Hi Lisa, this pressure cooker is just like the instant pot but about half the price the only difference I see with the instant pot is it has a stainless-steel pot, I will be using the pressure cooker in more videos. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Hi Jay, I have a few high end pressure cookers and this is one of my favorite ones, your going to love it. Watch my channel I have lots of pressure cooker recipes. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
I wish they had temperature ranges as I’m looking to try making fermented Natto soybeans. However the heat range is supposed to be 90-110 F range. So it cannot exceed 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Any ideas? I called the number and it is Walmart . The duration is for 24 hours in order to make it successfully. So I’m looking for the proper numbered selection? I mean I see beans but this is going on for 24 hours and not 30-45 minutes.
I ordered a stainless steel inner pot to replace the non-stick one* for mine and I'm ABSOLUTELY THRILLED! I'm pretty sure that most of you will want to get one as well. I got mine from Best Buy online and it was $19.99. That is the very best price for it that you will find you will not be sorry as it will last for-absolutely-ever AND you will never have to fear any type of "strange elements" (like Teflon flakes) in your food or air. I just BEAUTIFULLY seared a beef shank and made a gorgeous flavorful fond and my new Farberware pot is very busy making a sumptuous meal for us! 😋 I do not know how to cook with non-stick so you can just adapt the following to the non-stick vessel as you normally do. SUMPTUOUS BEEF SHANK WITH MUSHROOMS & ONIONS (you can use carrots, potatoes, celery, or whatever type of vegetables that you like) • Trim fat from shank (leave that bone marrow undisturbed as it is the best part!) and season it well by rubbing both sides with Diamond Brand kosher salt and Morton's Nature's Seasoning. Let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature; • Heat Stainless Steel vessel for several minutes until ONE drop of water dances in the pot. I mean dances in the pot... If it's sizzles or steams the pot is not hot enough. When the pot is hot enough the water drop will literally roll around and dance in stainless steel. If you are using the non-stick pot brown however you normally would. I apologize that I do not know how to do that in a non-stick vessel. • Pour tablespoon of oil in and wait until you see gentle wisps of smoke; • Brown shank well on both sides; • Remove shank to holding plate and scrape the glorious bits of fond that have been created and whisk a wee bit... about two or three tablespoons, of all purpose flour in making sure to brown the flour very well; • Deglaze with about 3/4 of a cup of whatever liquid you would prefer. I like to use a red wine with meat and a white wine with chicken but you can use a variety of different things as long as they are clear liquids. Try pineapple juice, orange juice, even a watered down V8 juice (V8 juice can splatter which is why I say "watered down") will make a beautiful gravy base. What you are doing in this step is making your gravy base, BTW; • Add your vegetables and place your shank on top of the vegetables; • Pour about a cup of beef broth or vegetable broth, whatever you'd prefer, over the shank slowly so that it rolls down into the vegetables carrying the seasoning down with it; • Close your lid (not really necessary if you watch it often and add more liquid accordingly) and choose slow cook. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours if you leave the lid on and longer if you leave the lid off. • Remove the shank to a holding plate and stir in a couple of tablespoons of creme fraiche and a few dashes of soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce (per your palate). You are ready to serve your beautiful meal! You can serve it over rice or with potatoes or what I'm doing are homemade egg noodles. That beef shank is one of the tastiest cuts that you can possibly imagine if you cook it properly. It is critically important that you sear it very well at the onset though to maximize flavor and tenderness. You can change up the final step where I add the sour cream, soy sauce, and Worcestershire and instead remove the vegetables and meat and arrange nicely for serving and strain the remaining liquid as it is a beautiful flavorful and unbelievably nutritious bone broth! That is what I usually do but this particular evening I want to make a stroganoff type of meal for tomorrow so I'm using the sour cream and the noodles. * I researched the material that the non-stick vessel is made of and it is, in fact, Teflon. Teflon is a product that gives off fumes that are very hazardous to birds and small animals and I just do not like cooking with it so I ordered the stainless steel vessel and I absolutely adore it! Happy cooking in our fabulous Farberware Pressure Cooker 👩🍳 Thank you @Cookingwith Rick for showing us how to use the Farberware product! 😋👨🍳😁
@@klee9016 For 27$ I will find a SS insert bowl to place in the Teflon pot, or accept some more nano grams of toxins in my already overloaded system. Since the thing cant by design go over 250F Teflon is quite stable.
@@RRaucina It DOES go to 450°, Richard. That's how it sears things. By any chance did you get a different model that doesn't have sear? You don't need to put a SS insert into the Teflon one. It fits all by itself if you buy the correct size. It won't be as tight as the Teflon because it would not heat properly. I'm just delighted with the stainless steel insert! I even tried deep frying at 360° in it just to see if it would work. Just a small batch of beer battered shrimp in peanut oil. Came out great but I'd NOT recommend using it for deep frying as, IMO, too hard to control heat. I deep fry in stainless steel over gas. I was just trying to see just how versatile this awesome Farberware product really is. BTW, I got my insert from Best Buy for $19. Everyone else charges ridiculous prices for it.
@@klee9016 I suppose you are correct about the temperature, but I dont sear anything in Teflon ever. This machine is mainly my fresh egg hard boiler and rice/grain cooker. Yes, seems Best Buy is the best buy on that
Hi Kimberly, I would cut the potatoes about a inch in diameter and I would cook the potatoes and green beans in 1/2cup of lightly salted water fir 5 minutes. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Pressure cookers scare me so much. I'm afraid to try them. I remember them seeming like the devil watching the steam release. It looked like the devil on my grandma's stove! Haven't even used one because of those memories. They scare me!
Hi Amber, I understand your fear but the new electric pressure cookers are very safe and easy to use watch a few of my pressure cooker videos to see how safe they are. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
The pressure inside a pressure cooker is about the same as a balloon that you inflate for birthday parties, etc. No big deal, and impossible for one to explode under such pressure, although the gasket can leak if not properly seated, but that just means it won't pressurize properly.
@@CookingwithRick Ok. Showed my daughter your video on pressure cooker. She wanted to try your recipe, so she's getting one tomorrow. She also enjoyed your cooking video. Thanks for sharing. Keep on cooking

@Just Simply Good Cooking I couldn't bear these screaming Karen Karen Karen Karen over and over again, the church bells, the beeping, and squeaking. I tried so hard to follow the video but I must be noise sensitive or something because I was jumping out of my skin. Hopefully he can turn down the background sound and escalate the primary sound of his voice so that I can watch it through because I really wanted to learn from it 😥
@@justsimplygoodcooking3176 He's probably just being defensive of his little pet. That doesn't account for all the church bells and squeaks and beeps though. That just drove me nuts! I finally muted it and just watched it with closed captions.
Always put a little oil in the pot and sauté the chicken or any kind of meat for about 15 minutes before you add the other ingredients. Once you add the water and vegetables, then you put the lid on and pressurize the cooker. When you sauté you develop great flavor and a browning.

I say that they're ridiculous because they are grossly overpriced and the company added so many of them that it's almost impossible to make a decision on one.
The old adage that "less is more" definitely applies to that particular brand as they are losing market share because people can't make a decision on which one to get.
The decision to buy this one was very easy except that the description said that the inner pot was stainless steel. I really dislike non-stick cookware. It just doesn't sear well and starts peeling after a while. I make fond for almost everything. I've never been able to do that in a non-stick product and scraping the bits up off the bottom, even if I could, I'd be fearful would get little portions of whatever the coating is into the food. I'm sure I'll find it enjoyable for other means of cooking but not searing and making gravies, stews, and soups like I had hoped in one vessel.
BTW, I turned off the sound on your video and watched it with the captions instead. I'm sound sensitive for some reason. I really enjoyed your video!
Thank you, Rick 👩🍳👨🍳
Do you have a listing for the stainless pot?
Your parrot made me have flashbacks of my mom's. That thing took more chunks of skin out of me than anything I ever did as a mechanic. Lol. Is it an African Grey? It makes similar sounds to my mom's African Grey so I figured it was one.
We got everything in that video Rick, a really good Pressure Cooker for under £50 or the equivalent there off, we got Dexta (that most awesome flying nephew of mine) and one of your clocks chiming away, what clock was it, Rick?
Hi David, I am happy you enjoyed the video, I think it was King Arthur 🤴 chiming. Thank you for watching I appreciate it buddy.
Not sure if you’ve used it enough, but it seems like non stick would be great for deglazing before you go to pressure cooking.
Hi Brad, I will be using more to see how it holds up, the pot is super non stick easy to clean. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
@brad doyle
I can't figure out how you'd even get to the point of deglazing! I bought this online, choosing it because it has the brown/sear feature on it. I made the natural assumption that the cooking vessel would be stainless steel because you cannot brown in non-stick and create anything TO deglaze (fond). While I've only been doing elevated cooking for a relatively short time of my life, I've never been able to create gravies or decent soups or stews without creating a fond by searing.
I was super disappointed to see a non-stick cooking vessel when I got the box just a few minutes ago 😥
I can't figure out why he didn't sear the chicken to create fond and deglaze it IF that feature actually works.
Just bought and did a 1:45 min pot roast. Was so good it just paid for itself!
Hi Donny, you're going to love your pressure cooker well worth the money. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
I can't figure out how to set the timer under 30 minutes. Please help me!thank you!
Hi there, I just came up on your channel and so far you do the best job at reviewing the pressure cooker. It’s affordable to buy but I want to see if I’m able to use it. However as a blind person I am curious what else the menu holds and if it’s storage the time to cook. I am currently trying to make my dogs meals and looking for something to be able to cook them in but it seems like every single one of these little devices has a lot of buttons so I’m just curious to see if it keeps the time stored when you program it. Annie advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance
@Angie Aldana
I applaud you for making all of your little dog's meals! I very much dislike feeding canned or otherwise dog food and feel that they are entitled to the same fresh things that we enjoy and nourish our bodies with.
I'm sorry that I can't give you any advice meant on how to work with the buttons on the cooker. I would speculate that somebody could put Braille on top of the buttons for you so that you would be able to feel them.
Wishes for a wonderful day!
Hello! My daughter loves her inst pot like this...I've been mean to get one, just didn't know what kind! Thanks so much for the info
Hi Lisa, this pressure cooker is just like the instant pot but about half the price the only difference I see with the instant pot is it has a stainless-steel pot, I will be using the pressure cooker in more videos. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
super nice. lk
Thank you Glen, I appreciate it my friend.
Can you fry Chiclen in the Faberware 7-1 pressure cooker?
That looks really good Rick!
Thank you Susan, I appreciate it my friend.
Good deal you got on it. Tell Dexter hello from me. 😁👋
Hi Debbie, the pressure cooker is a great price it works great. Thank you for watching Dexter and I appreciate it.
Great video! I just bought this today, thanks!
Hi Jay, I have a few high end pressure cookers and this is one of my favorite ones, your going to love it. Watch my channel I have lots of pressure cooker recipes. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
I wish they had temperature ranges as I’m looking to try making fermented Natto soybeans. However the heat range is supposed to be 90-110 F range. So it cannot exceed 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Any ideas? I called the number and it is Walmart .
The duration is for 24 hours in order to make it successfully. So I’m looking for the proper numbered selection? I mean I see beans but this is going on for 24 hours and not 30-45 minutes.
Hi Rob, the pressure cooker gets hotter than 110F it boils, maybe you could slow cook in it on high. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Thanks for the bomb recipe lol 😆 😋 😘
Thank you my friend, I appreciate it.
Had to return mine wouldn't stop steaming
I ordered a stainless steel inner pot to replace the non-stick one* for mine and I'm ABSOLUTELY THRILLED! I'm pretty sure that most of you will want to get one as well. I got mine from Best Buy online and it was $19.99. That is the very best price for it that you will find you will not be sorry as it will last for-absolutely-ever AND you will never have to fear any type of "strange elements" (like Teflon flakes) in your food or air.
I just BEAUTIFULLY seared a beef shank and made a gorgeous flavorful fond and my new Farberware pot is very busy making a sumptuous meal for us! 😋
I do not know how to cook with non-stick so you can just adapt the following to the non-stick vessel as you normally do.
SUMPTUOUS BEEF SHANK WITH MUSHROOMS & ONIONS (you can use carrots, potatoes, celery, or whatever type of vegetables that you like)
• Trim fat from shank (leave that bone marrow undisturbed as it is the best part!) and season it well by rubbing both sides with Diamond Brand kosher salt and Morton's Nature's Seasoning. Let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature;
• Heat Stainless Steel vessel for several minutes until ONE drop of water dances in the pot. I mean dances in the pot... If it's sizzles or steams the pot is not hot enough. When the pot is hot enough the water drop will literally roll around and dance in stainless steel. If you are using the non-stick pot brown however you normally would. I apologize that I do not know how to do that in a non-stick vessel.
• Pour tablespoon of oil in and wait until you see gentle wisps of smoke;
• Brown shank well on both sides;
• Remove shank to holding plate and scrape the glorious bits of fond that have been created and whisk a wee bit... about two or three tablespoons, of all purpose flour in making sure to brown the flour very well;
• Deglaze with about 3/4 of a cup of whatever liquid you would prefer. I like to use a red wine with meat and a white wine with chicken but you can use a variety of different things as long as they are clear liquids. Try pineapple juice, orange juice, even a watered down V8 juice (V8 juice can splatter which is why I say "watered down") will make a beautiful gravy base. What you are doing in this step is making your gravy base, BTW;
• Add your vegetables and place your shank on top of the vegetables;
• Pour about a cup of beef broth or vegetable broth, whatever you'd prefer, over the shank slowly so that it rolls down into the vegetables carrying the seasoning down with it;
• Close your lid (not really necessary if you watch it often and add more liquid accordingly) and choose slow cook. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours if you leave the lid on and longer if you leave the lid off.
• Remove the shank to a holding plate and stir in a couple of tablespoons of creme fraiche and a few dashes of soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce (per your palate).
You are ready to serve your beautiful meal!
You can serve it over rice or with potatoes or what I'm doing are homemade egg noodles.
That beef shank is one of the tastiest cuts that you can possibly imagine if you cook it properly. It is critically important that you sear it very well at the onset though to maximize flavor and tenderness.
You can change up the final step where I add the sour cream, soy sauce, and Worcestershire and instead remove the vegetables and meat and arrange nicely for serving and strain the remaining liquid as it is a beautiful flavorful and unbelievably nutritious bone broth! That is what I usually do but this particular evening I want to make a stroganoff type of meal for tomorrow so I'm using the sour cream and the noodles.
* I researched the material that the non-stick vessel is made of and it is, in fact, Teflon. Teflon is a product that gives off fumes that are very hazardous to birds and small animals and I just do not like cooking with it so I ordered the stainless steel vessel and I absolutely adore it!
Happy cooking in our fabulous Farberware Pressure Cooker 👩🍳
Thank you @Cookingwith Rick
for showing us how to use the Farberware product! 😋👨🍳😁
$27 now for the entire unit on eBay and Walmart!
@@RRaucina
One CANNOT purchase with stainless steel inset. Will have to buy that separately and there is no way around it.
@@klee9016 For 27$ I will find a SS insert bowl to place in the Teflon pot, or accept some more nano grams of toxins in my already overloaded system. Since the thing cant by design go over 250F Teflon is quite stable.
@@RRaucina
It DOES go to 450°, Richard. That's how it sears things. By any chance did you get a different model that doesn't have sear?
You don't need to put a SS insert into the Teflon one. It fits all by itself if you buy the correct size. It won't be as tight as the Teflon because it would not heat properly.
I'm just delighted with the stainless steel insert! I even tried deep frying at 360° in it just to see if it would work. Just a small batch of beer battered shrimp in peanut oil. Came out great but I'd NOT recommend using it for deep frying as, IMO, too hard to control heat. I deep fry in stainless steel over gas. I was just trying to see just how versatile this awesome Farberware product really is.
BTW, I got my insert from Best Buy for $19. Everyone else charges ridiculous prices for it.
@@klee9016 I suppose you are correct about the temperature, but I dont sear anything in Teflon ever. This machine is mainly my fresh egg hard boiler and rice/grain cooker. Yes, seems Best Buy is the best buy on that
how do u cook fresh greenbeans and potatoes in the farberware pressure cooker
Hi Kimberly, I would cut the potatoes about a inch in diameter and I would cook the potatoes and green beans in 1/2cup of lightly salted water fir 5 minutes. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Do they make these with a stainless steel pot?
Hi Teres, no but the non stick pot is great and mine is still holding up well. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Where did u clip it can i see the spill box thank you
I Belinda, I don't understand what you mean. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Pressure cookers scare me so much. I'm afraid to try them. I remember them seeming like the devil watching the steam release. It looked like the devil on my grandma's stove! Haven't even used one because of those memories. They scare me!
Hi Amber, I understand your fear but the new electric pressure cookers are very safe and easy to use watch a few of my pressure cooker videos to see how safe they are. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
The pressure inside a pressure cooker is about the same as a balloon that you inflate for birthday parties, etc. No big deal, and impossible for one to explode under such pressure, although the gasket can leak if not properly seated, but that just means it won't pressurize properly.
@@CookingwithRick Ok. Showed my daughter your video on pressure cooker. She wanted to try your recipe, so she's getting one tomorrow. She also enjoyed your cooking video. Thanks for sharing. Keep on cooking
@@cynthiawilliams3898 Hi Cynthia, the pressure cooker is really a great value for the price. I am happy she's getting one and trying my recipe. Thank you my friend, quick question your not Shirley from Laverne and Shirley are you? Lol just kidding my friend.
I think your cat is angry. Probably due to that smoke alarm needing a battery.
Could be. Thank you for watching I appreciate it.
@@CookingwithRick : )
Is this nonstick the ceramic type ?
Hi Rick, yes it's a non stick pot the pressure cooker works great well worth the money. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
Is there a parrot in the room
Hi Epic, yes it's my parrot Dexter, I've had him going on 21 years since he was a baby. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
How do you manually set it to a time and add pressure?
Hi Texas, the pressure cooker has pre set buttons but you can also manually adjust the time. I love thus pressure cooker well worth the money. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
So you used P01, then manual time 5 mins and moved the valve it to pressure.....is that how you set it?
@@net2mall2012 Hi Texas, you pick a pre set then hit adjust time set your time hit the start button and make sure you set the valve on seal, I have lots of pressure cooking videos if you want great ideas.
Teaspoon of salt and gets a handful lmaoooo
Turned out delicious, thank you for watching I appreciate it.
sounds like you have an congo african grey as well lmao
Hi Stealth, Dexter is a Timneh African Grey parrot good guess. Thank you for watching I appreciate it my friend.
@@CookingwithRick I was close haha, I have a congo that I inherited from my grandfather that is about 30 and she starts going crazy when I start cooking. So all of those noises were all too familiar hahaha.
Erik
So many damn noise distractions just ruin the whole video
Well that was Dexter my parrot and he's loud and proud.
@Just Simply Good Cooking
I couldn't bear these screaming Karen Karen Karen Karen over and over again, the church bells, the beeping, and squeaking.
I tried so hard to follow the video but I must be noise sensitive or something because I was jumping out of my skin.
Hopefully he can turn down the background sound and escalate the primary sound of his voice so that I can watch it through because I really wanted to learn from it 😥
@@klee9016 well his attitude seem nasty I'll just watch someone else personally
@@justsimplygoodcooking3176
He's probably just being defensive of his little pet. That doesn't account for all the church bells and squeaks and beeps though. That just drove me nuts! I finally muted it and just watched it with closed captions.
ERIk ….. ERIK !!!!
Wtf is that beeping
Dexter is beeping.
Oh and like 47
