All I knew about pressure cookers before meeting Bianca is that they were scary as shit.
My dad is a huge Steam train lover and he has shown me pictures of a train who's boiler exploded when I was a kid. Flying through the air for miles (according to him). Pressure and no relief valve = BOOM!
For me, pressure cookers resemble the same thing. You don't want to be near it when it explodes.
Now apparently pressure cookers are a thing in Brasil. They love em. You can find them from the poor to the rich.
When Bianca came to my house for the first time I think she was extremely surprised I didn't have one. Such a crucial cooking device.
After some pressure from her side, I decided to buy one (or I overcame my fear). I bought one with 2 or 3 safety valves because no way I was going to die by pressure cooker in my thirties.
I fell in love with the thing. Opening the relief valve after cooking for the first time was scary because it makes a ton of noise but the meals that come out of that pan are amazing.
Especially meat. Meat that normally needs to cook for 4-5 hours to become tender you can cook in the pressure cooker in 30 minutes.
Bianca's birthday is tomorrow so we went to Butcher Schell to buy some nice sausages for her party Saturday. But while being there she saw these beautiful beef ribs. We took them home and she cooked them in the pressure cooker for us.
It was amazing. Let me show you.
The ribs at the Butcher. Bianca's ask the butcher to cut them into 2-3 cm pieces.
This is what they look like after cutting. Notice the bone. It gives a ton of flavor.
Get your pressure cooker and put in butter and fry some garlic and onions.
Add the meat and give it some color. Then add water and salt.
Close the lid. And leave it to cook for 30 minutes.
When you open the pressure it looks like this! Amazing!
End result
Follow Me 
I love pressure cookers. They are way more useful compared to other things like slow cookers despite the fear that one day it might go boom haha.
I've been using a pressure cooker for a while and it easily deals with vegetables rather than a slow cooker, which tends to make them mushy.
I used to cook some vegetables before in a slow cooker before and I saw that they would start to fall apart and not taste as good as they normally are.
Another thing I love about pressure cookers rather than a slow cooker is that a pressure cooker lets you brown and sauté right in the pressure cooker itself rather than making things more complicated.
The rice and beef ribs look absolutely delicious. I'm glad that she could introduce something that will probably revolutionise your world @exyle haha

Pressure cookers are great. I used to be afraid of them exploding until I started using one. I bought an electric multi-function pressure cooker which was great since you can do some many more things with it like cook rice and make yogurt.

Yes, of course. This is the one I bought:

There's actually a couple versions of it made by different manufacturers. The great thing about this one compared to the traditional stove tops ones you can vary the time and pressure to cook different types of food without having to constantly monitor a stove. Another large advantage of this one is it actually gets hot enough to saute and brown food which makes it a lot more useful compared to many slow cookers (another device it can replace if you decide not to cook with pressure).

Those beef ribs looking yummy. Especially when you cook them in pressure cooker. Pressure cooker makes beef every tender and kind of way tasty to eat. In India, we use pressure cooker for our normal day to day food. It saves us a lot of time. A great electrical I would say,
Anyways this cooking lesson was great as always. Looking forward to your tomorrow's recepie.

That looks very yummy I must say, the pressure is awesome for making pulled pork, the meats slides right off the bone. If I may add you should def add more veggies to that dish, meat and grain is kind of cavemanish lol.

Amazing things you can cook on a pressure cooker if you know how. From steamed rice to chicken stew to lamb curry and what not. Try this dish called "Mutton Biryani", if you like eating rice with meat.

Tell Bianca it looks incredibly delicious! My wife is a big fan of pressure cookers also and will fix a roast, pork chops or BBQ at least once every couple of weeks. We just bought a pork butt on Sunday and she made an incredible shredded pork bbq. I'm not skilled in the ways of the pressure cooker so I leave that to her. I do really love how tender the meat gets when cooked in one of these though and you're able to do it fairly quickly. Have a great night brother!
