First Vlog!

So here is my first ever, howto vlog.  I go over some really basic pointers for safely using a pressure cooker.  Sorry about the duration of the video, I wanted it to be shorter, but I thought it would in inconsiderate to skimp on anything since the process is potentially hazardous..  Judge me if you'd like!  Enjoy :)

"Ummmmm" hahahah

  1. Wow, you did an excellent job of not only sharing the benefits, but cautioning about the possible dangers of pressure cooking. I also liked that you included information about sterilizing cooking tools and silverware. I've never used a pressure cooker, but I see them on Top Chef all the time :) You may have inspired me to try for myself!

  2. I like your video a lot. I know absolutely nothing about pressure cooking, so it was kind of neat to hear about the proper method of using a pressure cooker. It seems like something that I would like to try. Good job!

  3. HI Lorin,
    You did a good job explaining the basics of pressure cooking. I do a lot of cooking for my work, but haven't used a pressure cooker. I enjoyed the education.

  4. Very good, Lorin. Your video is detailed, your style is calm and thoughtful, your subject was covered in detail. The only suggestions I have would be the camera work was a little all over the place (were you holding it and doing the demo?) and at times I got a little seasick from the fast zooms and pans. It didn't go with your calm presentation, it seemed a bit hectic and if you were doing it all yourself I can see why, that's a lot to do. All in all this is an excellent video, fact-filled, and has the potential for a series on other cooking tools. Good job!

  5. thanks everyone! Lisa: I know I was a little shaky with the camera when aiming it back at myself or at certain things as I was explaining. Next time I make a video it will involve much better planning to address the issues you mentioned.

  6. I think you did a great job. I think its great that the cooking videos were done by the boys (er..men:). How we have progressed! Maybe... I am intimidated by the idea of pressure cooking still.. but you have inspired me.
