Can I use an electric pressure cooker to do all my cooking that requires a pot?

It seems like the most power efficient and fastest way to cook shit.
>>
>>21735293
Pretty much if it has a non-pressure mode. I wouldn’t pressure cook oily stuff in mine, and anything (ooo girl you) thick like oatmeal sometimes bubbles some out of the pressure valve before the lid fully pressurizes

>>21735293
>most power efficient and fastest way to cook shit
That would be a gas stove, anon.
>>
>>21737004
>>
>>21737015
that's the least efficient method, a ton of heat from the burner is wasted to the surrounding air instead of heating up your meal

a pressure cooker is insulated with an integrated heating element, similar to a kettle so it's extremely efficient
>>
>>21735293
I love pressure cookers, but they aren't the magical device of your dreams, gotta be realistic here. You certainly can't keep the heating element on for 100% of the time at max power else it'll overheat, which is why they'll automatically shut off if it gets to that point, and why you get like 30 min-1hour max at high heat, depending on which device you get. This means you can't sear/brown/saute to your hearts content before you make your pot o'stuff. Some models actually have a stove safe inner metal pot, which means you can brown on the stove. Don't know what you can't sear within an hour, but it'll probably have to be in batches since the base isn't as wide as the widest pan. It'd be extra work to clean, but you could also just sear in any pan you already got, and pour the deglazed liquid into the cooker with your browned food. Could also try and buy a separate inner metal pot that is stove safe, again a hassle.

The pot isn't small, but it also isn't the largest pot ever, so don't expect to make multiple gallons of soup in it.

>>
>>21733595
Speaking of berries, I dislike store bought blackberries, they're always underripe so they're sour or flavorless. If I'm not picking blackberries myself I don't want them.
>>
>>21739086
It's an issue with berries in general. They're delicate and don't have a long shelf life so they're usually picked underripe. Frozen can be better but the texture is mushy if you thaw them.

piss and shit

Because of work-life circumstances I find myself frequently making instant ramen for dinner. Some of the ramen say instead of just putting them in a bowl with hot water for 3 minutes, to boil the noodles in water and thicken the sauce by letting it reduce down, then add vegetables and meat to taste.
I chuckle at first but then I thought: what vegetables and meat could I add to a pan that was either quickly done or fine to eat as it without increasing cooking times too much (let's say 10 minutes overall)
I thought spring onions, since theyre quickly done and are available in small portions at the supermarket. I also thought about those ham or speck cubes that come prechopped in packages, or maybe slicing strips of bacon small.
Any other recommendations? Is there something dried that isn't full of preservatives and shit that I can add?

>I can pre-cook halfway and let it cook the rest of the way in an insulated thermos
So, a thermos is not a cooking vessel though? Who told you it would continue cooking. It's going to approach room temp over time. Vacuum insulated extends the time, of that, but they're better at holding cold vs hot. They are slightly better at holding ice than staying warm over time, so you'll have to start with screaming hot soup/rice/pasta creations or hot coffee or tea, and you'll even want to prewarm the carafe with hot water before you transfer your meal.
>>
>>21735257
You shouldn't use that for cooking. At best, you can "cook" various grains and eggs. You can use the thermos for food you boil i.e hot dogs and mac and cheese. I have one of these and its a must have for those who work outdoors in northern climates. I'll give you a tip: ditch those two shitty plastic containers and get yourself two 'Le Parfait 350 mL Wide Mouth Familia Wiss' jars. They will fit perfectly. I got mine at whole foods but yrmv. With those jars you can add boiling water to the thermos to keep food hot. That way you can rotate multiple pairs of jars, 2 for breakfast 2 for lunch. You are on /ck/ so I assume you know how to cook with glass. With this method you can cook (heat up) those canned soups and stews quite nicely.
>>21737460
This guy is right though. It's not meant for cooking, but you can make it work if you really wanted to. Imo its better to get a crockpot/rice cooker if you want to cut corners.

So riddle me this eggucks. I hard boiled a dozen last night for about 9 minutes. Then ran ROOM TEMP WATER into the boiling water as I dumped it because I give a shit about my plumbing. Did this for about 30 seconds until pan and egg water was at ROOM TEMP. I then proceeded to crack the easiest fucking egg shells in my entire life. I mean they broke like nothing and the inside was slimy with water. I ran my thumb around each shell in less then 3 seconds.

I want an explanation why this was better then any cold shock or treat I've been led into. These eggs were jumping out of their shells which I took off in a single piece.
