No rack or no spices you buy those separate just a bag to keep it in, but I really enjoy cooking with my can cooker

It comes with a small booklet with eighteen 5 minute recipes, no pictures just recipes.Poached Eggs, Egg Omelet, Baked Apple Crisp Dessert, The Baked Onion Trick, French Onion Soup,Fresh Tomato Sauce, Shrimp Scampi,Chocolate Souffle, Maple Sweet Potatoes, Eggplant Parmesan, Healthy Veggie Chili, Loaded Diced Potato, Broccoli Garlic Saute, Green Bean Almondine, Spicy Sesame Green Beans, Honey Glazed Carrots, Zucchini and Tomato Saute and, Baked Banana Dessert. FYI, after using it a couple of times, they spend most of the time on the shelf.

Yes a basic booklet is included. If you're looking at pressured canning, I suggest the Ball book to go with it. Don't worry it's not hard, just write down the steps and work through it. Most of the work in canning is the prep work of the food itself. Hope this helps.

no, this is just a recipe kit. The only thing extra that comes with it are the bottle caps.

Yes, it has a small cookbook with several recipes. They are actually pretty good and give you an idea of how to cook different things in it. But like all microwave cookware you will need to experiment a bit to figure out exactly how it works best in your particular microwave. It cooks some stuff REALLY fast, so its easy to burn it.

No, just a few recipes in the booklet. You can find recipes on line for cooking for 2.

Yes, I have the red steamer and it did come with a short booklet with instructions and I think about two recipes.

I received my cooker today and it had paper wrapped around it - no box, no foam, no warranty, no instruction booklet. I am wondering if it is used! Very disappointing, Amazon.

Yes, the recipe comes together with the user's manual. But you can also download a digital version from Nesco's website at:http://www.nesco.com/products/Kitchen-Appliances/Electric-Pressure-Cookers/4-Liter-Electric-Pressure-Cooker-4-functions-in-One-Unit/session_20fda222b9da/Hope this helps.

In the book I have all of the meat recipes call for the use of a pressure cooker.When my husband and I canned deer we used a canner with a Jar rack in itand you don't have to have a pressure cooker. This is like a kettle with clampson lid and a vent on top, it works great. Good Luck

put food in tin foil works great and no messy pan to clean up. I line the cooker with tin foil and cook soup chili ar anything that sounds better than a sandwich

Nope. A basic and not so simple cooker. Plug it in and wait for it to cook thoroughly.Have made Stews with this and quickly found it just isn't big enough and it now just sits in my cabinet.

This cooker was a gift for a friend. I know they were pleased to get it, but don't know anything beyond that.Sorry.

I do not do any canning, but have read general how to books on Canning. Some canning is done in pressure cookers, but this 6 quart is very small. I did cook a whole chicken not cut up in 25-30 minutes last week.

It should of come with a book. But if using preset meat etc buttons push that then start. If you want to do timing on your own set minutes to cook on pressure cooker time button...

it comes with a small pamphlet with 6 recipes and a table of cooking times for basic foods (various vegetables, fish fillet, chicken breast). the table was useful in adapting my own recipes. you can find many recipes if you google "parchment paper recipes", "en papillote recipes", or "packet cooking recipes". i found them to be equivalent to the way the Lekue Steam Case works. good luck and have fun!
