I'm having trouble linking an image, so if you don't know what it is, just google it. It's basically this pot that has a twist-locking lid so that the vapor stays inside when it boils. It cooks everything so much faster.

  • I can cook beans from dry (unsoaked) in under an hour (versus 2+ hours after soaking them).
  • Meat turns out sooooooooo tender.
  • Chili, stew, everything comes out like it was slowcooked for hours, but it's only been like 20 minutes.

The other day I made a rosemary potroast with a boatload of carrots. MMMmmm, first of all. Then I used the leftover meat and onions to make tacos at dinner. Complete with homemade blue corn tortillas. To die for.

Definitely the best investment I've made in Guatemala  (besides maybe my bed). Get one, even if you don't eat beans.
