Brown gravy! One of my favorite things!

I order chicken fried steak with brown gravy and everyone thinks I'm nuts! But it is so good!

My mom blew carrots all over the kitchen ceiling once... They went through the steam valve when she took the weight off!


Mine is new and while you can't take the LID off, you can still remove the weight and release the pressure while it is hot. You CAN get food blown through the valve when you remove the weight. What I do is throw a towel over the top of the lid and remove the weight with the towel over top, this helps keep from burning me with steam and also keeps any food in the steam from hitting the ceiling, it's all trapped in the towel. Once the weight is off, I transfer the pot to my sink and run water over the lid until it's coolish to touch and with the weight off, there is no pressure and you can open it.

My mom used to make beans in her pressure cooker. The thingy on top would spin around, making a rat-a-tat-tat sound, which sounded just like a machine gun. Me and my brothers would pretend we were soldiers being shot at, and run around the house, diving behind furniture every time the pressure cooker sounded. Those were the days! I have a modern pressure cooker/canner, and a slow cooker, but have not heard of the instant pot that you guys have been talking about. Time to google, I see.

Brothers are like that

I have a scar right above my lip where my brother pushed me off a tall stool and I hit an open cabinet door on the way to the floor. Apparently, that was his stool and I shouldn't have sat on it (I was all of 2 yrs old at the time).

Yay, brothers
