When cooking split peas, I was told to use a small sterling silver or glass bowl covered with aluminum or a glass top.I was told any glass that is safe for the oven is safe for use in a pressure cooker.So I got a small baking glass pot with glass top and was about to use it,Then I find the baking glass pot directions say not to use it on the stove topSo is this still safe to use in the pressure cooker or not? Anybody with experience?I don't want to use stainless steel because I can't find any small with top and I don't use aluminum because it's toxic.Thanks
I can only say this once: DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES EVER PUT GLASS IN A PRESSURE COOKER ON HEAT!!! :-o First, glass (corningware, glass bakeware, etc.) has been known to explode due to temperature fluctuationsYou can google thisThere have been lawsuits and severe injuriesGlass/corningware can NEVER go on a stove top everNext, while pressure cookers are getting safer, due to their nature of being a pressure cooker, they can still be very dangerous!!! My mom used them all the time, and one time while she was in the kitchen at the sink with the pressure cooker on the stove, the thing explodedLiterally, the lid broke off by itself and hit the ceiling and all the ingredients went flyingIt almost gave her a heart attackImagine if there was glass in itoh my godPlease don't EVER put glass in one.
