Pressure cooker!

[ilai]

I stewed a large pot of pork, eggs, tofu, and mushrooms (滷肉、蛋、豆腐、香菇) yesterday afternoon, and filled my kitchen with the aroma of five-spice powder. The recipe I used called for a pressure cooker, but since I did not have one, I just let the stew sit for about three hours. While waiting, I looked online and found some $45 pressure cookers on Amazon. Now I'm really tempted to get a pressure cooker for yummy stews like this, which gets me an entire week's worth of lunches and dinners.

Or maybe a crockpot, whichever one is actually more useful.

Pressure cookers make me think of Ivanova from Babylon 5: -"No boom today? Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow."-
