 "too fancy" 2010-08-13
By B. Neilly
definitely a gourmet book, very fancy stuff i wouldnt ever cook, never used this book, not even once. its been ages since i've even used my pressure cooker too, i find my beans and other foods turn out better in a slow cooker, so that's what i use now.


 "useful book to have" 2010-08-05
By Susie Vue (PA, USA)
I have made a few recipes from this book but more importantly, it taught me methods to use to make up my own recipes to cook in the pressure cooker.

Glanced through this but think if is a bit more than I was looking for, I'm sure I'll find some good recipes but a lot of them were in need of specialty products, I prefer pantry items for faster preparation.


 "Untested Recipe!" 2010-03-03
By Jon Foley (Chicago, IL)
I just finished making the Beet and Orange Soup on page 28 of the 2003 version and it has clearly either not been tested or not edited. It is horrible and we make fantastic dishes in our pressure cooker all the time. I've given it two stars simply to be nice. How disrespectful of time and resources to make me pay for a book that is so haphazardly or lazily done.

We've used so many recipes from other sources and they are very forgiving and this one is horrible.

We'll try more since this was our first from Victoria Wise - but even if they are all fabulous I will always feel cheated by this one recipe.


 "After You've Mastered Basics, this is the one to go for" 2009-07-26
By Nocturnal (San Francisco)
Anyone with any sense knows better to jump directly into a gourmet cookbook if you don't already know the basics for that type of cooking. Doesn't matter if you've already mastered cooking in some other style, you still have to start with the basics. And you can't expect the principles and "rules" for one style of cooking to be the same for another. So with pressure cooking. This is not a book for the virginal beginner who hasn't got a fairly good grasp of basic pressure cooking. This is the book you go to once you feel comfortable with basic, simple pressure cooking and want to learn more complex, involved pressure cooking. It's named "gourmet" for a reason. It's not for type of food most of us eat every day but it's for special, when you want to prepare something impressive. When you're ready to move from basic everyday food to gourmet cooking, this is the book that'll take you there.
