I think I need to invest in a new one plus the app as I used to find it very useful. That dinner menu looks very tasty. I needed a new recipe for the end of this week and that will fit the bill nicely.Lyndseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01984204149343024935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-45690537097321134032020-08-25T10:39:09.568-07:002020-08-25T10:39:09.568-07:00OH MY GOODNESS!!!!

Thank you!!! I have the old family pressure cooker and the gauge tested perfectly, but I have not had the chutzpah to actually use it since the time I tried a tomato ketchup and opened it to find it had siphoned. Red water and jars two-thirds full. I learned later that I hurried the process by letting the steam go too soon. Live and learn. I'm off to get that app! I have garden produce to can!

Since retiring, a few years ago we remodeled our house it was long over due. We bought in in late 1989. When designing the kitchen, my daughter who is a Interior Architecture designer helped us with the details. My kitchen now has a steam oven, warming drawer and convection steam oven. The steam oven is especially helpful as it takes 10 minutes to sanitize canning jars, then fill them with food and process another 10 minutes. It beats using a pressure cooker.Californianativedaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04575867488405482439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-48094441419594202322020-08-25T06:22:09.579-07:002020-08-25T06:22:09.579-07:00I do have a pressure canner (over 40 years old, I&...I do have a pressure canner (over 40 years old, I'd guess), but I never used it to pressure can. I used it as a boiling water bath for canning tomatoes, chili sauce and pickles. I don't do any canning any more. You really need a garden to make it profitable. I also have no desire for an Instapot. Like Cathy, I'd be afraid to use it. Hope you can squeeze in a bit of stitching here and there.<br />Pat<br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-18578101950393367252020-08-25T05:45:54.330-07:002020-08-25T05:45:54.330-07:00As I kid, I was always a bit wary when mom was usi...As I kid, I was always a bit wary when mom was using the pressure cooker, so I've never been enthused about trying one. Funny thing, though, we popped all of our popcorn in a smaller pressure cooker, which I used with ease. Go figure. Anyway - I'm glad your experience was a good one and I can see how the app would be so helpful. That sandwich and the salad look delicious! piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-29570585429522615932020-08-24T18:35:56.220-07:002020-08-24T18:35:56.220-07:00I’ve always been afraid of pressure canners too!
