Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
I have a slow cooker/crockpot that I have used twice in the 3 years I've owned it.
But I don't have a pressure cooker.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
I don't own one but I think if I did I would use it. I do own a crockpot and I use it pretty frequently to make dinners.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
I too have a crockpot, I used it quite often when I was working FT. I also like to use it on weekends when we are going to be out all day.
When I think of a pressure cooker, I think of something you see on TV when it explodes all over the kitchen

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
Yes but I've only used it once in the year and a half that I've had it. It's too cumbersome for me.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
I have a pressure cooker and a crock pot. I use the crock pot more often, but nothing beats a batch of meatballs in my pressure cooker! They come out incredible.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
No I don't. Likelyhood is....if I had it I would use it. I saythis because in the cooler months, I use my crockpot often.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
I have a crock pot, which I hardly use. Pressure cookers scare me. My mom used one all the time when we were growing up and they just seem "unstable." Whenever she used it I would stay clear of the kitchen.

Re: do you have a pressure cooker?
No but I was just saying to DH that I want one, since I tried MIL's artichokes this weekend. Sooooo good, and you just add artichokes with garlic and oil and steam for 30 mins.

I am curious to know how you make them in a pressure cooker?

Yes. It's how my DH refers to any car ride with me in excess of one hour.

Add freshly rolled meatballs into enough sauce to cover them and cook. Once the pressure cooker has pressure and is cooking under pressure, you only need about 10 minutes. The meatballs come out so soft, cooked and delicious!
