Basic Essentials 5 qt. Aluminum Pressure Cooker —

The ONLY complaint I could have about this pressure cooker is that I wish it came in a 6 qt size rather than 5 qt. Beyond that, it is streamlined in terms of function (EASY TO USE!!!!!!!) and produces beautiful soups, meats and desserts. I had previously owned a heavier stainless steel model and now much prefer this aluminum model-MUCH lighter, and very even heating throughout. A dream machine, especially at the price. I use it almost every day. And it comes with 3 great recipes on the box. Instructions are clear and precise. You can't go wrong with this model. Enjoy and have fun!

Under pressure, the internal temperature rises above the normal boiling point of water, causing roasts, stews, soups and vegetables to cook faster. The shorter cooking time saves energy as well as more of the nutrients and flavors in the food. The pressurized steam tenderizes meats naturally, leaving them moist and succulent. Basic Essentials cookware is produced to our exacting standards. This pressure cooker is constructed of high-quality aluminum and is designed to promote efficient cooking. Aluminum has high heat-conductivity and distributes heat evenly.
