  1. In addition to leaving out five cups of water, this recipe changes the 2 teaspoons of better than bouillon base in the original to 2 tsp of vegetable stock. In other words, the original essentially calls for 2 CUPS of stock and 3 cups of water. I’m so glad I have enough experience with the pressure cooker to have noticed there wasn’t enough liquid and read the comments before proceeding. My advice is to go to the recipe linked to above so the site with the correct one gets the clicks rather than this ripped off version that will ruin your dinner if followed as written.
