Difference between pressure cooker and pressure cooker/canner?
Comments (12)"Pressure canners come deep enough for one layer of quart or smaller size jars, or deep enough for two layers of pint or smaller size jars. The USDA recommends that a canner be large enough to hold at least 4 quart jars to be considered a pressure canner for its published processes. " If you go to the Presto site, nowdays you will see they only list the larger size as canners. They have 18 quart and 23 quart. Anything smaller is under cookers. http://www.gopresto.com/products/products_search.php?search_value=58&operation=Search&search_type=category Here is a link that might be useful: National Center for Home Food Preservation...See MoreHominy...cooking in the pressure cooker? help!
Comments (16)Ok, this comes from The Brown Adobe Sampler, for a Taste of New Mexico. Posole for 6-8 12oz dried posole (they say it is not the same as hominy but very close) DAY BEFORE Cover posole with large quantity of water and soak overnight. DAY OF COOKING Drain and rinse posole. Place posole in pressure cooker with 6 cups of water 1 large onion finely chopped 2 cloves garlic finely chopped 1 tsp salt 1 T oregano 3 T pure ground New Mexico red chile Bring to pressure and gently cook for 1.5 hours. Turn off heat and reduce pressure, and open pressure cooker. Now this is posole flavored as the base for the actual pork posole. If you have your own recipe you want to use you could also just do the dried posole/hominy with only the water, onion and garlic but leaving out the red chile. AND I know the 1.5 hrs is a looong time. I would do 30 min and see. But then again the recipe is for dried posole, not its cousin hominy.

Comments (10)I have all three as well. PC's are excellent timesavers--steamed artichokes in 12-14 minutes instead of 45. Excellent for quickly tenderizing cuts of meat. (Great curry dishes in 20 minutes.) And sometime this week I'm gonna make corned beef & cabbage in just a little more than an hour. And I find that I prefer osso buco made in the PC to the non-PC way. Also, with a PC I can make foolproof risotto with hardly any effort and very little time, so I end up making risotto more often. (Indeed, Kuhn Rikon markets a small PC as a 'risotto maker'.) Dutch ovens are great for unfussy cooking; starting something on the stovetop and then finishing them in a slow oven is their forte. If you like this technique, take a look at Molly Stevens' All About Braising. Great resource. I have found that since I got into PC cooking I don't use my slow cooker as much. Slow cookers are great for stews, chili, beans and other things where the timing isn't critical--but the pressure cooker is very good on beans and grains as well, in about a third the time. If you want to work more grains and beans into your menus, a pressure cooker really is worthwhile. Lorna Sass, the pressure cooker expert, has written a pressure cooker cookbook precisely aimed at vegetarians. (See the link.) If I had to give up any one of those gadgets, it would be the slow cooker. I definitely wouldn't give up my PC, and I really like the enameled cast iron Dutch ovens as well.
