Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker and Canner

This Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker and Canner is a very good product. It is very sturdy and works as described. It is a very good value.

The Presto 23-quart pressure canner is more than adequate for any home canning needs. It’s a professional-quality tool, made of heavy-duty aluminum, with stay-cool handles and a strong-lock steel lid. An accompanying rack fits down into the pot to keep jars up off the bottom, so that liquid can circulate underneath. And it can do double duty as a large pressure cooker. It’s easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor.

The sturdy lid locks down during canning or cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. The pressure dial gauge gives an accurate reading so that pressure can be kept constant during canning. This pressure canner is also a cooker that’s useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 50 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts–even sweets like English Plum Pudding or Brown Bread! Tenderize lean cuts of beef, or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture.

Make up to 1-1/2 quarts of ice cream, sorbet, or frozen yogurt in just 30 minutes with this easy-to-use countertop appliance. The double-insulated mixing bowl freezes quickly, and there’s no salt required. The unit provides a top-fill funnel for adding ingredients without making a mess, and its mixing paddle not only thoroughly blends, but it will also automatically reverse direction to prevent over-heating. Other highlights include a simple push-button on/off switch, a transparent lid for keeping an eye on the consistency, and durable plastic housing that wipes clean before storing it away. The ice-cream machine makes a nice addition to any backyard barbeque or kid’s birthday party, and an instruction manual with great-tasting recipes comes included.

The Ice cream maker works great. The recipes that come with it are very tastey. The only downfall is the base needs to freeze for atleast 12 hours before making any icecream.

It is really hard to believe that such a good product could be so inexpensive, even if it is made in Mexico. The build quality is excellent. Instead of smelling dust while vacuuming, the air coming out of the vacuum is actually fresher and cleaner smelling than the air in the room.
