...I was wondering about the risotto...now we know! <br /><br />I just bought a new one, a cheapie prestige and the thing skriks me everytime, even though I'm expecting it, it's much louder than my moms and very insistent.<br /><br />I'm emailing you now, on how you reached into my kitchen last night and saved the day xxKaren Bekkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05546950816491796108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294591135492198062.post-50495004506322455312012-06-12T11:11:14.655-07:002012-06-12T11:11:14.655-07:00OK, I will avert my eyes...if only slightly becaus...OK, I will avert my eyes...if only slightly because I need to get this recipe. Pressure cookers and I do not mix, and coming from a bunch of Cubans that's sacrilege since they use it a LOT. However, I've blown two up in my day and that's as far as I'd like to go in the bomb department...and I just adore a very long cooking stew in the cooler months, adore oxtail too so it's saved, yummy.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548038213207928436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294591135492198062.post-31052842303786676722012-06-12T09:44:21.656-07:002012-06-12T09:44:21.656-07:00Yum.
A good tail is a good tail.
Indeed.
Snicke...Yum.<br /><br />A good tail is a good tail.<br /><br />Indeed.<br /><br />Snicker.<br /><br />I know nothing about pressure cookers, though I was deathly afeared of my mother's when I was little. That valve thingy on top would begin to shriek and sometimes shot across the room at lethal speed.<br /><br />But I like the idea of them. Except, that La Colombe risotto tasted like it came out of pressure cooker, in the sense that it was not stirred and stirred and stirred. It looked gorgeous but was horribly stodgy.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.com
