Rating: - Useful book!
I found this book to be extremely helpful. Growing up in the 1940s with a family who used two (Flex-Seal) pressure cookers at many meals, I am comfortable with what pressure cookers can do. This book's strength is its description of what you can do and why. Example, I now "Quick-soak" all dried legumes for five minutes instead of soaking them overnight. This is an enormous time-saver.

Rating:  - Delicious!
I tried the "Refried Beans" (page 134). In total, it took about an hour of a half, including the quick-soaking procedure described in the book and the mashing at the end. (Most of the time is spent waiting, so it was easy.) I honestly have never had such tasty refried beans! I was really surprised.
Rating:  - Yucky
I am not experienced with pressure cookers, so you may chose to ignore my review. These recipes were complicated, and not at all easy to put together. They largely came out bland as well. Maybe I am just a bad cook.
Rating: - Create a Gourmet Meal in Minutes
The complete book on pressure cooking. Create gourmet meals using recipes from this book such as: BBQ Steak w/Maple Sweet Potatoes, Fish & Eggplant Curry, Seafood & Safron Soup, Boston Brown Bread.
Included are sections on Do's & Don'ts of pressure cooking, common problems, troubleshooting and maintenance of your pressure cooker.
Rating: - EXCELLENT RECIPES MADE WITH SIMPLICITY
Of all the books I looked at, this one fit my needs best. As a student and a cooking novice, it gives me good tips on pressure cooking in general, has many recipes for all kinds of food styles (e.g. meats, fresh veggies, legumes, grains, fruits, seafood, etc.), and seeks to fill the recipes with healthy, low-fat ingredients. There's even a section "Cooking for One." For rookie pressure cookers like me, and even for the cooking veteran, THIS BOOK IS A MUST!
