Be careful cooking beans in a pressure cooker. They are not as bad as split peas which we are warned never to do in a pressure cooker. But they can plug the steam vent. I once had that happen to me. It did finally blow the steam vent open, but then it erupted! I had bean soup all over my stove, exhaust fan, the floor, almost the entire kitchen! What a mess!

Subject: [frozen-assets] Pressure Cookers - Electric Or Not?
Ever since reading the message that talked about cooking dried beans in the pressure cooker, my desire to get a pressure cooker has increased. I have been looking at the different pressure cookers and am unsure if I should buy an electric pressure cooker or a stovetop pressure cooker.
Once of my favorite things about freezer cooking is cooking up large batches of meat and getting them into vaccuum bags in the freezer. The last time I cooked chicken, it took up so much space for a large portion of the day. Even though it was worth it because I had shredded chicken that I used in different recipes that lasted for about 6 months. I have been thinking that a pressure cooker would be so nice because I could still cook large batches of meat. I have also been trying to learn how to cook beans so I am hoping that a pressure cooker will be the answer to finally being successful at it.
So I appeal to all of you - which would be better? Should I get the electric pressure cooker or the stovetop pressure cooker?
I look forward to getting everyone's opinion!
