Do aluminium pressure cookers work properly with ceramic hobs, or should I purchase a stainless steel one?
Ceramic tops are ok i have one of those glass top stove tops and it does the job . if you can afforsd a SS get one it will last way longer than the AL. but if AL is what you have no problem they last a long time as well. I made a beef soup yesterday in my Pressure Cooker(PC) and its hhhmmmmmm gooood! lol enjoy it. BTW. braze the meat/beef inside the PC before you put the lit on. then use the PC as usual.
Edwin, we have a stainless steel pressure cooker, had it for years, out lasted my sister in laws who had the Aluminium.
The choice between an aluminum and stainless steel can be boiled down to two important factors - price and durability. Aluminum ones are cheaper but they are better conductors of heat. However, they are inferior when it comes to design and quality. Stainless steel pressure cooker maybe more expensive but it is more durable and reliable. Stainless steel pressure resists corrosion; it’s scratch and warp resistant so you can keep it shiny and pretty for a long time. It does not react to food.
