What are the best pressure cookers?

The best pressure cookers tend to use a durable stainless steel pressure vessel for cooking. Whether an electric or stovetop cooker is best for you depends on your needs. Larger stovetop cookers tend to be best suited to sterilizing canning jars. Electric pressure cookers come with electronic settings and controls that make them great for preparing all types of recipes.

How do I safely use a pressure cooker?

When using your pressure cooker, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions to make sure you are using it as safely as possible. Typically, you will want to make sure the lid is locked securely, that the heat isn't too high, and that the cooker isn't overfilled. 

Should a pressure cooker hiss?

Hissing is normal in all kinds of pressure cookers, as excess steam is released during or after the cooking process. If a sealing valve was accidentally left open, that can also cause a pressure cooker to hiss.
