Fagor Pressure Cookers

These are the pressure cookers that I own. I have a small one, and the six quart. Between the two, I use the six quart the most often. These are great for those nights when we’re late and dinner needs to be done fast. You can just put all the ingredients in the pressure cooker and very quickly cook a full meal.

The best thing about pressure cooking, besides cutting the cooking time by up to 70%, is that it preserves vitamins and minerals during cooking. Pressure cooking is effectively cooking with steam, preserving the vitamins and minerals in the food.

The pressure cookers came with a recipe book with tips, and I get a lot of pressure cooker recipes on the internet.

I think you will be pleased with these cookers. Fagor has done a good job of producing a quality pressure cooker with all the needed safety features for a very reasonable price. Fagor Pressure Cookers

In this video, chef Kirk Leins shows you how to make a decadently rich Molten Chocolate Cake. The cake is light and moist with a molten chocolate center. Serve it warm to that special someone and you are sure to get rave reviews.

Garnish with a little vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Enjoy!


Molten Chocolate Cake (serves 6)

Powder sugar for dusting
4 large egg yolks
4 large whole eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 lb. high-quality, bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp cake flour (plus more for dusting)
Vegetable spray
2 sticks unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using vegetable spray, grease (6) 6-ounce ramekins and dust with cake flour.

In the top of a double boiler, melt the butter and chocolate. Remove from heat and whisk in sugar, whole eggs, and egg yolks. Whisk in the cake flour.

Evenly distribute the batter among the 6 ramekins, and bake for 10 minutes or until the sides of the cakes are set but the center still jiggles.

Let the cakes cool for 2-3 minutes, then run a thin knife around the sides and invert onto plates. Garnish with powder sugar and serve with either vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
