When Barbara Kafka's _Microwave Gourmet_ came out, I bought it, and was
impressed at how the book was able to explain what the microwave oven is
good at and what it is *not* good at. The book is chock-full of excellent
recipes and tips.

Now I'm looking for a book about pressure cookers which has those same
qualities. Does such a book exist?

I'm not sure if it has the explanations you're looking for, but if you want
a book with good pressure cooker recipes, I like "Pressure Cooking for
Everyone" by Rick Rodgers. There's a recipe for a stew with Pork and
Butternut Squash that is fabulous!

Yes there is. I find this book really informative, nice photos, and
inspirational. I paid $3 for mine and they are pretty cheap on ebay.

I can't think of the one that's been recommended by a number of folks
either here or on another group, Bob, but this is a popular site:

"The Pressure Cook" by Lorna Sass, sent to me by a certain rfc-posting
someone, is recommended. It won't tell you much about what the pressure
cooker is *not* good at explicitly, but in this case, explanations of
the cooker's advantages would make the disadvantages clear to anyone who
knows anything about cooking at all. The book is nicely written and the
recipes are good, too.

THAT's the author I was trying to think of, Bubba. Thanks.
