Talking pressure cooker tells it like it is

Listen to your pressure cooker.

Electric pressure cookers can handle a variety of tasks. Traditionally used to speed up cooking time by increasing pressure inside the cooking vessel, the modern varieties are capable of much more. While they will always be a popular option for kicking out a pot roast in a minimum amount of time, some models can also brown, steam, slow cook, and talk. Yes, talk.

The Technique 6.5-quart Oval Voice Guided Pressure Cooker ($119) can not only cook up a meal, but it can also talk one up, too. The multicooker features convenient and versatile cooking settings that include steaming and browning functions as well as slow cooker settings. The oblong shape allows for the nonstick interior to hold odd-size cuts of meat, while the 6.5-quart capacity offers enough room to cook for the whole family. And if nobody else is around? It will keep you company by talking to you.

When the voice function is activated (you can turn it off when it gets too bossy), the countertop appliance takes any guesswork out of cooking the evening meal. The voice function acts as a guide, alerting you what to do each step of the way. With multiple cooking modes allowing for a wide variety of meals, the kitchen appliance is one dining companion that is guaranteed to like the cooking.

Pressure cooker adds browning function to increase flavor

One-pot meals just got tastier.

Browning creates flavor. It is a simple statement, but one with deep-toned implications. The effect is what is called the Maillard reaction and it is what occurs when amino acids and sugars get together with a heat source. The resulting party creates new flavor compounds, and that all equals delicious. Achieving this deliciousness is as easy as getting out a saut pan. Or in this case, the multicooker.

The West Bend 82011 Pressure Cooker may be appropriately named, but pressure cooking is only one of its capabilities. The versatile countertop appliance is really a multicooker that combines five appliances in one. In addition to the pressure cooker setting, the machine can also be operated as a slow cooker, a rice cooker, and a steamer. And when the browning function is employed, possibilities increase; it can be used to build flavor or just simply saut some vegetables.

The encloseable device uses a simple push-button interface to supply cooking options. An integrated timer makes quick work of setup and allows for worry-free operation. Along those lines, the appliance does include "7 built-in fail-safe safety features" to help ensure that food cooking under pressure stays under pressure (at least until dinner time). And considering all that this multitasker can do, the cook is sure to stay cool under pressure, too -- or whichever cooking mode happens to be on.
