Top Tips for Instant Pot Cooking Success

Pressure cooking with an Instant Pot is so easy. I have been using one since they first came out. I love being able to cook a real meal in less than an hour and most of the recipes are done in under 30 minutes.

Unlock the full potential of your electric pressure cooker with these tips:

  • Read the Manual: Each model has its quirks. Familiarize yourself before starting.
  • Natural Pressure Release is Key: For meats and stews, it makes all the difference.
  • Don’t Overfill: Keep it below the max fill line, especially for foamy foods.
  • Seal Properly: A correct seal ensures even cooking. Check the rubber seal each time. Make sure it is not damaged and that it is in the correct position under the lid.
  • Use Enough Liquid: Essential for creating steam and preventing burn notices.
  • Experiment: The Instant Pot is versatile; explore different recipes.

Instant Pot Tools

Using the right tools is just as important as using the right ingredients. Make sure your recipes turn out perfect every time.
