pressure cooker for healthy food

Back in the late eighties and early nineties I remembered as a kid, the taste of vegetables and meat and even rice. They tasted so wonderful! As years went by, the taste was forgotten. Every year I tried newer dishes from different cultures in different restaurants in different countries, thus eliminating my childhood taste buds entirely. At least that was what I had thought, that is, until last week. As I was sifting through stuffs in the messy store-room downstairs I got hold of a cooking utensil, the pressure cooker!
