Many dried beans must be soaked overnight in cold water prior to cooking. After soaking, the beans can be cooked in boiling water. If the beans fall apart, you are cooking them too long.

How to Prepare Hard Boiled Eggs With an Egg Cooker?

Egg cookers make cooking eggs in hot water easy. Although it may seem easy to cook hard-boiled eggs, many still have trouble perfecting it. Some have it too soft and watery, others cannot easily remove the contents from the shell, and there are also those who serve a rubbery egg. To be able to serve those perfectly-boiled eggs without the gray-green tinge, follow these simple steps: • Prepare the egg cooker, water and eggs. Make sure to clean the egg cooker before using it. Place the desired number of eggs on the egg holder. The number of eggs cooked per cycle will be dependent on the holding capacity of your cooker. • Slowly pour the right amount of water in the cooker. Each type of cooker has a certain indicated level of water per egg. Usually, the water level should rise just a little above the egg shells. Cover the cooker. • Plug in and switch on the cooker. Most egg cookers have specific settings based on the number of eggs that you are going to cook. Make sure you pay close attention and set the equipment correctly to ensure that all eggs will be cooked uniformly. • Remove egg holder once a buzz is heard from the egg cooker. Immediately cover the eggs in cold or tap water and let them stay there until they are cool enough to be handled. • If your egg cooker does not have an egg piercer, remove the shells from the eggs by breaking through a portion of the shell. Carefully peel off all the shell without creating damage to the egg whites. • Place the unshelled eggs on a plate, slicing some of them. Add a garnish of your choice, which could be a cucumber or tomato, along with a healthy dip. With egg cookers, preparing a hard-boiled egg will never be a difficult task for anyone. Apart from the fact that an egg cooker can cook your egg as desired, it also lowers the possibility of injuries, such as burns.


How do you cook a top round roast in a pressure cooker?

Cooking in a pressure cooker cuts your cooking time down to about a third. In other words, if you would normally cook a roast for 3 hours it's only going to take 1 but keep in mind that were talking really high temperatures here. The pressure at which you cook the meat at will also cause the time to vary, as will as the fact that top round roasts have very little fat content, quite the opposite of a chuck roast. I usually cook a 3 lb top round roast for about an hour. The process is basically the same as what you would normally cook a top round roast at except for a few added steps. Heat up your pressure cooker and add about 2 to 3 tablespoons oil. Cut your roast into four equal parts, salt and pepper each piece and then brown on all sides. Remove meat from cooker and add about 1 cup beef broth along with 3/4 cup Italian salad dressing. If your presser cooker has a lift pan to keep the meat off of the bottom of the pan while cooking, insert it at this time and cover. Cook for about 1 hour. If you would like to include potatoes and carrots with this meal, have your potatoes and carrots cut, seasoned and ready to go once the roast is done cooking. When the roast is done cooking, take the entire cooker (lid still on!) over to the sink and run cold water over it. This will very quickly bring the internal pressure down to normal allowing you to open the cooker and add your vegetables (unless your roast is completely falling apart, leave the roast in the cooker and add vegetables on top, other wise remove the meat and keep covered and warm). Return cooker to the stove top, replace lid and bring the pressure back up. Once the pressure is where you want it cook for an additional 20 minutes.
