We recently bought a Wolfgang Puck electric pressure cooker from HSN. It take nearly 30 minutes to come to pressure and begin cooking anything. Is this normal?
Answers:    I enjoy always had a pressure cooker and the answer to ypur ask is yes it it normal, It depends how much food & liquid is contained by it, as an example, if you have a cup of liquid and partly of the cooker with food it might get up to pressure contained by about 15 min,when I make stuffed cabbage full to the top next to 4 cups of liquid it takes 30 min to bake up the mass in the pot,remember that the inside has to gain to boiling before it can reach pressure. (remember not to block the vent hole within the center of the cap.)
