Over high heat, bring cooker to pressure. Reduce heat just enough to maintain and pressure regulator rocks gently; cook for 3 minutes. Quick-Release the pressure. Carefully remove lid. Stir together flour, dill, salt, pepper, and milk, half and half, or light cream till smooth. Add to cooker. Cook over medium heat till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 1 minute more. Makes 6 main dish servings. (10 cups) NOTE: I substituted Spam for Ham, low-fat milk, and canned green beans. Served with sourdough bread for dunking!!!:-))))) Source: BHG Pressure Cooker Cookbook by WHOM!!! Brought to you and yours via Nancy O'Brion and Clan.
