What is the Philippe Richard Pressure Cooker?
Manufactured by Tabletops Unlimited, the Philippe Richard Pressure Cooker is a manual pressure cooker that uses a stovetop to generate heat. The cooker features a clamping mechanism that is secured into a rubber seal around the pot, which is designed to prevent steam from escaping as the contents build pressure.
What's the Problem?
