Red Wine Stewed Pears from the Pressure Cooker!
Sweet and tart at the same time, no dessert stuns more with it's beauty than wine stewed pears! Just peel, stew and serve! From the Hip Pressure Cooking website, with permission.
Pressure Cooker Arborio Rice Pudding
Serve this elegant pudding warm in the winter and chilled in the summer. Making rice pudding in the pressure cooker requires pressure cooking with milk - which can be tricky but not impossible. It has a tendency to foam and bubble inside your pressure cooker and valve. So, do not open your pressure cooker by releasing the pressure vapor valve. My recipe recommends the cold-water quick-release method. If you have an electric pressure cooker, shorten the cooking time a bit and let the pressure come down naturally to avoid spurting milk out of the valve.

Pressure Cooker Mini Meatball Broth
You don't need a stock to make this broth, from the Hip Pressure Cooking website, because you make it yourself. Then, the vegetables come out of the pan, to serve as a side dish, and then meat balls, and pastina go in to turn this dish into a one pot meal! Pastina is a miniature pasta, usually stars, or little rigatoni called dialtini. Use the smallest pastina you can get your hands on - not couscous - and then cook in the broth according to package instructions. If you can't find any pastina, you can cut tagliatelle into little squares, or break spaghetti into small noodles. From the hip pressure cooking website, with permission.
