I love it! It does so much I use it regularly and I got over my fear of using a pressure cooker. It’s so easy to use and will even do rice. Love it!

Thanks for your post. We are thinking of getting one, and though we first were interested in the stovetop type, I think we’re moving toward an electric one.

Sweet and Spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce

4 tablespoons peanut butter (chunky or regular)

1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar or rice vinegar
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Sriracha hot chili sauce (to taste), Can substitute Tabasco, Crystal Hot Sauce, Franks, etc.

Mix ingredients well. Serve as a dipping sauce,
or over white steamed rice, meatballs, noodles, pasta, pot stickers, egg rolls, etc. This stuff is really good.
