White rice cooks in about 4 minutes in a pressure cooker.
If you have an electric pressure cooker, you don’t need a kitchenette. You just need an outlet to plug it in. If you have a stove top pressure cooker, you could get a portable burner, and then you just need two outlets.
Like I keep saying, I don’t buy their story. I’m just correcting the fallacies that you can’t cook rice in a pressure cooker and you can’t use a pressure cooker in a hotel room. You absolutely can, and it’s not difficult. You’d be amazed how many things you can cook in a pressure cooker. One of my brothers makes a delicious cheese cake in his pressure cooker.
Oh, I had no doubt that rice will cook in a pressure cooker. It just seems over kill, especially in a high end Hotel with zero kitchen facilities in the rooms.
If it was “the same type as used by the Boston bombers” it was not electric.
My Grandmother had a Masters in Home Economics from UT, Austin. I watched her, my Mother and my Aunt can likely over ¼ million jars during their life times. The only thing I remember them cooking in a pressure cooker when not canning was dry beans when in a hurry.
Having worked industrially and traveling over 30 years, I can tell you we cook in crock pots more than anything else except maybe a microwave. I still cook two to three meals a week in a crock pot. The only time I remember any of the guys using a pressure cooker was when some of them tried to cook dry pinto beans above 7,000 feet elevation. They boiled them for three days and they were still hard (LOL), then went and bought a pressure cooker...
