Short answer is no. You could try but everything I have read says that you shouldn't.

yes, you can can vegetables. I have Miss Vickies pressure cooker recipes and it tells how and hundreds of recipes.

No, you would need one that is larger and has that feature listed as an option. This one does not>

If the only thing you want to do is steam veggies, it may not be the best appliance. I use it as a pressure cooker for beans, a rice/grain cooker, a soup pot (great because you can saute right in the pot before you put in water or stock) and a slow cooker. I really love this appliance and use it regularly. That being said, I usually steam my veggies on the stove top in a stainless steamer pot.

It does not have pressure settings, it is not electric. It is however an excellent pressure cooker!

Yes, you can cook from frozen with all our Instant Pot pressure cookers. The cooking time is the same but the "pre-heat" time will just be longer. Regards, Instant Pot

If you are talking pressure cooker, I would not. Although it is very sturdy, pressure cookers are temperamental, so to speak. It can be used with a steamer very well . Hope this helps.

I purchased the Americas Test Kitchen "Pressure Cooker Perfection". It is fantastic. It has a lot of great recipes and it gives you instructions that are easily converted to your electric pressure cooker.

Yes. But not all items need the pressure cooker as a canner. I bought this for my daughter before she realized that jams & jellies only need boing water method.

Maybe in very small amounts, but in general they should be cooked normally (like with the lid off of the pot). Best just to follow the instructions on what is best to cook in a pressure cooker, because you don't want the lid gasket and pressure valve to get gummed up if you cook the wrong things (or overfill the pressure cooker).

When canning vegetables and meats a pressure cooker canner is recommended. You could contact your local extension company and ask their advise. This canner is best for canning fruits and jams. But I have used it to can relishes and they have turned out great.

I guess you can steam in the pressure cooker but timing will be VERY tricky in my opinion. Use a covered Corningware in your microwave preferably.

Yes Brenda, browning feature is available. Just use the stainless steel pot and turn on manually. It works like a regular electric stove but if the temperature gets too high, the sensor will turn off the heater and you have to wait a few minutes and turn on the heater again. This is a great electric pressure cooker!!

Sorry, I do not know. I used it only with a normal electric cooking plate. I cannot image anymore to prepare meal without Pressure Cooker.The description mentions the possibility to use induction stoves ("Suitable for all stovetops, including induction; 10-year limited warranty; dishwasher-safe except for pressure lid".

This seems to be possible. I went to the Presto Pressure Cooker website and they have recipes and instructions for both white and brown rice. Good luck!
