#1: Hard Boiled Eggs: I know, I know. Hard boiled eggs are NOT that hard to make on the stove. And they don’t take that much time. But the reason to make them in the Instant Pot is not necessarily because it saves time. The number 1 reason to make hard boiled eggs in the Instant Pot is because of how much easier they are to peel! This is a thing I promise. The peels practically slide off magically. • Best Instant Pot hard ...
#2: Greek Yogurt: Making yogurt in the Instant Pot has completely changed my life for the better! I love making homemade thick and creamy Greek yogurt. I can make about 8 cups of yogurt for $2! What a deal! I love eating my yogurt every day with some berries or bananas and a little granola. It’s high protein and a great breakfast or snack. My brother-in-law likes to stir protein powder into his Greek yogurt for a high protein and delicious snack. I tried it and it almost tasted like pudding. So yummy! Once you do it a few times you won’t even need to look at a recipe you’ll just know the process. • How to make yogurt in ...
#3: Roast: I love making roast in my slow cooker but sometimes I don’t get it into the crockpot in time. That’s why I love the Instant Pot! I can make fall apart tender roast in the Instant Pot in less than 2 hours. You can even cook frozen roast. • Instant Pot 3-Ingredie...
#4: Rice: One of the very first things I made in my Instant Pot was brown rice. Brown rice on the stove has never worked great for me. I would always get the ratio wrong or the water would boil over. With the Instant Pot brown rice turns out perfect every single time!
#5: Potatoes: I make mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, potato salad and more potato dishes ALL the time in the Instant Pot. They cook up so fast! Sweet potatoes also turn out well in the Instant Pot. They do cook quicker than Russet potatoes though, so be careful not to overcook. • Instant Pot Mashed Pot...
#6: Melting Chocolate: Although you don’t use the pressure cook function for this recipe the Instant Pot is a handy vessel to melt chocolate for dipping. Sharon said, ” This new way is so much easier than melting it in the microwave and then keeping it warm on the warming element on the stove. I won’t use the old way of preparing it again now that this is so much easier.” • How to Make Chocolate ...
#7: Macaroni and Cheese: There are a billion recipes to make macaroni and cheese in the Instant Pot out there. Why? Isn’t mac and cheese super easy and fast to just make on the stove? The answer is yes it is. However, the Instant Pot make the whole process hands off. I love throwing the ingredients into the Instant Pot and walking away. I love not having to worry about the water boiling over on the stove. The other thing is that the Instant Pot can keep the mac and cheese warm until you’re ready to eat. This makes it perfect for potlucks. • Best Instant Pot Mac a...
#8: Frozen Chicken: I am a procrastinator. I’ll start working on that personality flaw…tomorrow. So the fact that I don’t have to thaw my chicken when using the Instant Pot makes me so very happy! I have so many great recipes that use frozen chicken. Here are some of them…www.365daysofcrockpot.com/ins... • How to cook frozen chi...

    @@yessicaongay If you don't have a yogurt button, you may do the yogurt wherever you want (stove or IP). You need to boil the milk up to 90 degrees C (I don't know F), then after boiling, let it cool to 37-40 C (that's around 100 F), and add the starter or some real unsweeten yogurt. Now the tricky part starts. As yogurt likes to stay at 37 C ( close to 98F). If you don't have a yogurt maker, you may try to leave the yogurt in the oven with the light on (do not heat the oven). I tried that and it works. You need to let it stay in that oven 8-10 h, than move it in the fridge. NB I did the oven method by moving the cultured milk in some jars (not a big pot).

    Great video. Your shredded chicken idea is great. I was a chef in Mexico for a while and did a lot of shredded "stuff" for tacos, tostadas, etc. I found a REALLY easy way to shred chicken, pork, beef or anything. Put the cooked meat in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer on lowest speed for about 30 seconds and you'll have perfectly shredded meat.

    To my experience, you do not need to boil the milk (extra work). Just add your yogurt (small portion saved from previous batch) directly to cold milk from refrigerator. Hit the yogurt button and set for 8 hours. The yogurt came out very creamy and not sour at all. Hope this helps.

    @@juanitapina3621 I just put it down flat. We have thick aluminum cookie sheets, and aluminum is an excellent heat conductor. I leave it with the flat part on the granite. If you turn it upside down, it could slide, and you don't want it flying off and scalding someone. Many IPs are different, and there are lots of different makers. One thing I would do is put the pan under there, and then check it about midway through cooking (feel the pan around the bottom of the pot) and see if it's hot. If it is, one additional thing you can do is put that rubberized shelf-liner under the pan. But it shouldn't be necessary as the pan will act as a heat sink and diffuse the heat away from the granite. Good luck!

    I make yogurt in quart mason jars. I put two cups of water in the IP pot followed by three jars. Most, although not all, will fit (at least in my Duo) if positioned just right to clear the extensions in the lid. After the boil cycle, I take them out, letting them cool with a napkin covering the top. When they reach about 95 F, I add the yogurt starter. (I use Lifeway's unflavored Kefir, which comes in a bottle and has 12 active cultures.) Then I put them back in for an 8+ hour yogurt-making cycle. At the end, I don't strain. I just pour off a bit of the liquid and then into the refrigerator The big advantage is that the yogurt is made in the storage jars and there's nothing to clean afterward.

Dump the milk & starter. Stir. Put the lid on & press yogurt. Go to bed and get up and fresh yogurt for breakfast. And you can still make Greek yogurt the way you did. 😊 I hope you'll share that too Karen.

    Many thanks, Karen, for this. When I cook dried chickpeas, I soak them overnight, set the IP for 5 minutes, use full NPR, and believe they're 'creamier' than by other timings, so maybe it isn't true only for hard boiled eggs?

    This is incredible handy. Thank you. I already knew the eggs, but I really appreciate the way you walk through everything else. Including the “well, I let this drain for too long so here’s what you do now.” Also, the mashed potatoes without draining? Is a revelation!!

Using the IP will free up more time for me. I am learning to sew and enjoy art and other fun projects. P.S.- I bought one of the first Rival Crock Pots in the 70s. Looking forward to slow cooker ideas as well.

    @@viddy8379 Just in case it's helpful I bought a pressure cooker (aka Instant Pot) at Big W and am really happy with it. The front button display looks so much like the US Instant Pot and it operates the same. It doesn't have a stainless steel bowl but the bowl is non-stick and is so easy to clean. It also has 15 menu buttons compared to only 10 for the one at Kmart, so I think you'd be really happy with this one too. I got it for $79, excellent price, it's the Contempo brand.

I was also interested in your yogurt...I just use the Fairlife milk and 2 Tbls of Active Yogurt and turn on for two hours...I didn't know you could stir some of the Whey back in if it was too thick. I put in in the strainer thing I bought on Amazon and it comes out pretty thick. So, Thanks!!!

    Your elevation won’t effect the cooking time when you’re using a pressure cooker. That’s the whole point. But your elevation is probably why you don’t get the best results with traditional herd boiling because the water in the stovetop won’t get to 100°.
