Got a 5 quart pressure cooker for Christmas. Problem is I am getting mixed answers on how to use it.
So does anyone on here have experience using a pressure cooker? I really want to try it out and make some fried chicken.

Pressure cookers scare me. I'm afraid they'll explode.

You can make fried chicken in a frying pan. A pressure cooker is not a frying pan.

Unless it is a pressure fryer cooker you are in for disaster.

Never thought anything tasted good made in a pressure cooker. Re-gift it.

a pressure cooker should be used for things that should be braised.... but the pressure cooker will do it much faster.

Just watch Iron Chef, those guys use pressure cookers like they're going out of style.

they use it to cook things that should take a long time to cook but need to be cooked within the 1 hour limitgorocks99 wrote: Just watch Iron Chef, those guys use pressure cookers like they're going out of style.

How do you cook "fried" chicken in a pressure cooker. I thought a pressure cooker worked by steam...Free_is_better wrote: Got a 5 quart pressure cooker for Christmas. Problem is I am getting mixed answers on how to use it.

Unless i am wrong this sounds like it could be very dangerous....

im not positive but i think a pressure cooker and a pressure fryer cooker are two different things. i could be wrong though
kfc, most delis/chicken shops in grocery stores and so on use a pressure fryer

Not sure that's why I was asking. I heard from someone that fried chicken is the best in a pressure cooker. Maybe I misunderstood them.Dr Jones wrote:How do you cook "fried" chicken in a pressure cooker.

It sounds like I should just ask for a gift reciept and get something else.
