The invention provides a cooking utensil. The cooking utensil comprises a pot body and a pot cover, wherein the pot body is used for accommodating food to be cooked; the pot cover is arranged on the pot body, a circuit board containing cavity is arranged in the pot cover, a circuit board is arranged in the circuit board containing cavity, a magnetic induction element is welded or inserted on the circuit board, a mounting hole communicating with the pot body is arranged in the pot cover, the cooking utensil further comprises a pressure measuring column movably arranged in the mounting hole in apenetrating manner, a first magnetic part is arranged on the pressure measuring column, and the magnetic induction element comprises a first magnetic induction element matched with the pressure measuring column. When the cooking utensil works, steam in the pot body is jacked up by the pressure measuring column, so that the first magnetic part moves from the position, outside the induction range,of the first magnetic induction element to the position, within the induction range, of the magnetic induction element. With the technical scheme, the problem that in the prior art, a detecting element of an electric pressure cooker is high in processing cost and difficult in processing is solved.
