Book Reviews of The New Pressure Cooker Cookbook

Book Review: It's a good start but needs work
Summary: 3 Stars

All in all I enjoyed this book. It has potential, but it needs work--more attention to detail.

For example several of the recipes missed steps--i.e saying to saute an item and set it aside, but never saying when to add it back in.

Additionally, while the book states that all the recipe amounts/portions are designed around the capacity of a 6 quart pressure cooker, I found that many recipes could easily be increased by 50% and sometimes 100% while still keeping it safe by not filling the cooker more than 2/3 full (if you're going to go the trouble to cook something, you might as well use the full capacity of the cooker IMHO).

Some recipes (i.e. Curried Beef and Greek Beef stew) sounded good, but in reality the flavors just didn't blend very well at all. Others (like the Green Chile Pork and Hominy Stew) were just delicious!

I think this book has potential, but the author needs to pay more attention to detail.
