#2 Pressure Cooker Perfection
If you are a cooking lover, you may know about America’s Test Kitchen. With Pressure Cooker Perfection book from America’s Test Kitchen and, you will find a brilliant range of recipes that completely use the pressure cooker’s full potential. Just a little thing I don’t really like from this book is some general information about pressure cooker (how they work, step-by-step guide to using them, some pressure cooker reviews,…), they are good for beginners but not really necessary in general, because we can easily found these information from many trustworthy websites on Internet.
What great is that this book contains 100 pressure cooker recipes, and each of them has a full color photo of what the dish looks like and even several small, full-color photos of the different steps in the cooking process. They are really atractive and make the recipes easy to follow.
With this book, I believe that you will get much more use out of your pressure cooker.
