Paging Dino to this thread

In the meantime here are some Dino posts about stacking several things at once in a pressure cooker

If you're going through the trouble of preparing this why not just toss in an apple and then make your own roux with curry powder while the pressure cooker is working?

Proportions?

Welp, I finally went out and bought a pressure cooker. My first meal was couscous and veggies that I cooked together using the dino method, and some leftover korean bbq that I warmed up in a pan. Thanks to this thread and especially to dino for all the info in this thread, otherwise I would've probably still thought of pressure cookers as That Weird Cooking Voodoo.

edit: Also, holy poo poo, running water on the cooker is way faster than venting the steam. Is there any particular reason why a person would use one method and not the other?

I should've listened to Dino and bought the 8 quart cooker. My 6 quart cooker has a max fill line that only allows for 1 gallon of stuff to be put in...

Forgive me, Dino! I repent of my sins!

Probably concentration? I'm pretty sure if you reduced it down it'll turn to jello stock
