> If a soup has multiple steps, you can easily end up paying the cost of building up temp and releasing twice. I think most people tend to avoid dishes that have multiple steps for that reasons. Generally the most you see is sauteing in the bottom of the pot before deglazing and adding more ingredients and bringing it up to pressure. Although I'm sure some people get fancier with them. At that point though, you probably aren't saving time or effort over just cooking normally.
