Pressured Cook

Black bean chili with squash and corn : page 176
For black bean chili, this one is fancy. I like basic black bean chili but sometimes a change is good. The squash is a welcome addition, although I sometimes omit it (saves time by not needing two periods under pressure). I have always made this with vegetable broth only.

Asian beans, barley, and bok choy : page 190
This stew is incredibly good. I make it often since it uses adzuki beans, which do not need to soak prior to pressure cooking. The shiitake mushrooms help to create a rich, umami broth.
One suggestion - the beans usually need more time than called for. I usually cook for 22 minutes (vs. the 18 minutes specified) prior to releasing the pressure. This cooks the carrots a bit longer, but I don't mind.
