works great. i love that it has stainless steal pot inside kzread.infoUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and not the one with coating. we used to have a coated pot before, and the coating slowly peels, and i am sure went into the food that we cooked. Absolutely love stainless steel, and will not use a coated product again.This pot has many settings and many buttons, and i need to sit down with a manual to figure out which setting to use. I used the basic functions, and even though i am not technologically skilled, i turned it on and assembled it without any help.Very satisfied with this product overall.

This is the greatest way to make hard boiled eggs in the instant pot. I made some a little while ago and already ate 3 of them. Thank you so much, Lisa.

I've always had an issue with cooking eggs in the IP. I started with the 555 method and had to keep decreasing the time till I got to 2 mins. But I didn't let them naturally release. I will be trying this today. Thanks again for another great video!

I started with 5-5-5 method 3 years ago, and little by little I reduced the cooking time to 2 minutes with a 10 minute release (or sometimes a bit longer when I’m not paying attention to time). They always turn out much better than when I first started. I have been using the 2-2-2 method for 2 years now and everyone raves about my deviled eggs. Wish you made this video sooner! LOL! But I hope those who see this try your method - IT ALWAYS WORKS! Thank you for sharing!

Yea, I haven’t done eggs in the #InstantPot in a few years and decided to look it up again for a refresh. Watched a 5-5-5 video, had followed instructions and already started with five when I came across this video, canceled before pressure indicator was up and dropped the time to two. Almost thought there is no way those eggs are gonna be cooked. Let the sit on L until 14 minutes and the eggs were great…think 💭 I’ll drop it to 11 or 12 next time. Surprised yet in love ❤with this method.

So awesome you made this video again just in time for Easter. I used your method for making our Easter eggs and to make some potato salad tonight. Such awesome results! Thank you woman.

I’ve always done 2 min and NPR for 3-4 then ice. Never a problem with store bought and now 2 years of backyard fresh!

I do appreciate that you not only tell us what to do but why as well =) THANK YOU!

I did this yesterday after watching your video & compared one of those to the eggs I’d done the day before using the old way. You are absolutely right, there’s a HUGE difference between them, exactly as you said/showed. Really appreciate it, I’ll only be making mine with this method from here on out! 😍👍

These eggs are perfect!! I had a dozen farm-fresh eggs…worst eggs to boil and peel. They cooked and peeled perfectly using your 2-15 method. Thank you!!❤

Works perfect... I've always struggled with hard boiled eggs in the past, but never again. Thank you!!

I just got an instant pot and this was the very first thing I made. They were PERFECT! Thank you for your helpful tips!

I've done the 2/15 method twice now and my eggs turned out PERFECT! Will only use this method now. Beth 😊

We just tried the 2 minute high pressure and natural pressure release for 15 minutes on jumbo size eggs. Results: Perfect hard boiled eggs that peel easily. We have tried other methods with mixed results. We are looking forward to trying your method again. Thanks for the video. 🙂

This was my first attempt at hard-boiling eggs with my new(ish) instant pot. I used your method and thought they turned out great! I especially liked the tender whites. I can't remember ever having tasted tender whites before. Thank you. (I made these again a couple of times. Tonight, I shortened the resting time to 10 minutes and the yolks were super tender and soft! They were the bet yet!)

I just tried this too. Worked like a charm! Thank you.

Thank you so much for introducing the 2 minute/15 natural pressure release - came out perfect.

Thank you so much!! I’ve tried 5.5.5, etc etc…always thought they were tough but I’m trying to use my Instant Pots ( 3qt and 6 qt)… yes, I had it perfectly down for cooking them on the stove too (put the eggs in a cold water pan, bring to a boil, turn off immediately then put lid on pan for ten mins) but enjoy using my Instant Pot so much more for so many things why not use it for this also…🥰🥰

This is brilliant! Worked beautifully and it also greatly reduces the number of cracked eggs as well. Will definitely use this method from now on.

Just tried this. These are the most perfect eggs I've ever made! Thank you so much!

YAY!!! Eggs taste awesome and are super easy to peel! Timing is perfect. Your method is the BEST! Thank you for sharing!

They turned out perfect!!!! Thanks So Much!!

I always used the 6-6-6 method with LOW pressure, but my new pot (the new air fryer combo with Ultimate lid) only has high pressure. I will definitely try your method.

I've done 5-5-5 but I did this one at 2-13 and wow the texture and even the taste improved, thanks 👍

A for Effort on how detailed this test is. Love it. Keep it up!

First time doing hard boiled eggs in my new Instant pot. This worked great! Thank you!

Just found your video today. Worked perfectly! 12 eggs in a basket in my 3 qt Instant Pot and a cup of water. Hi pressure 2 min., 15 min NR, ice bath. Eggs peeled easily. Thank you!!

Just tried this after using the 5-5-5 method a few times. Yes, the whites are a LOT more tender. No more rubbery whites to contend with . The other benefit is not having to deal with the steam release. Thank you!

Thank you so much, Lisa! You ROCK!

I watched your egg video with the “easy peel hack”, which teaches this same method. Today (end of Jan 2023), I tried it with 5 eggs in the steamer basket (which I bought because of a recommendation from you), and followed this method exactly, in a 6 qt pot. Then I put them in the ice water bath and peeled them like you showed. They turned out really well, except one egg exploded out of its shell (which can happen with any method). Easy peeling, and perfectly cooked. I had watched a video of the 5-5-5 method and almost used it but then I decided to see if you had a how-to. Because I know you test things out, and you explain things without extra chit-chat. I’m so glad I did!

I tried this today. Worked great!!

I've been coming back to this video every time I make hard boiled eggs for like the past year. So thanks. It really is the best method.

Absolutely perfect eggs from this method. Thanks!

Somebody mentioned below in comments about NPR even a lot less at 3-4, before ice. I'm thinking if that works, I'd be good with changing out my 5-5-5-. Otherwise, I'm still leaning toward the 5-5-5 as the entire thing is done in 15, start to finish. I guess I hadn't noticed any issues with toughness as many had noticed, but I only use hard boiled in other salads etc vs eating them on their own where you might notice that more. But always willing to try another method out. Thanks for showing this.

I have a 6-QT Power Cooker. I used 2-6 method; perfect eggs everytime. I use this method because my unit can't stay pressured for 15 minutes; pressure is gone by the six minute mark.

I have been doing this!! Works great 👍🏻

Trying your method now - thanks for the tips 👍🤓

Easier way is to use the steam button. Just place eggs in basket and set into insta pot. add enough water to come to the bottom of the basket. Bring water to a boil using saute. Throw the lid on and steam for 15 min. cool them down and your ready to go. Seems faster and I don't have to wait to bring it pressure. Yes, my backyard chickens fresh eggs turn out great.

Always good to check at your altitude also - for me in Colorado (5800 ft.) best is 2 minutes full pressure and only 5 minute natural cool down - removed immediately and placed in ice water for 10 minutes. Love your info on instant pot!

That makes no sense, there should be no different variance by altitude if the eggs are being pressure cooked. Maybe you like your HBE a little softer?

I’ll have to try this. I usually make 6 or 7 eggs with the 4-4-4 method and liked them. But I do love a tender egg.

Very nice job on the testing and demonstrations. I am trying your method right now. I do like the more natural softer appearance your method had. We can see it in the video. I am the guy that believes "texture" is a flavor too. That is another target of mine when I cook. Appearance and texture are just as important as flavor. Thank you so much for this video. Very nicely done.Update: You're method is still the very best. Great job on the testing, the content and so thank you so much for sharing.

I've 18 eggs waiting to become HBE, and ai'm excited to try this 2/13-15min out. Your explanation fits with Amy & Jacky's pork loin recipe: 8 mins high with a 40-45 min slow release. Perfect every time. Thanks!!

Aww thanks so much! Enjoy!

If you think about it, you're in the "Green Zone"--the window of perfect egg opportunity-- for a longer period of time cooking at Low Pressure. At high pressure you zoom through that Green Zone much faster. Also your Instant Pot comes to pressure faster since you're using Low Pressure instead of High Pressure. Try this and see what you think: Pour the water into the inner pot of your 3 qt Instant Pot. Place the rack that came with your pressure cooker in the bottom of the pot and arrange your eggs on top of it. Close and lock the lid. Make sure the steam release handle is pointed toward the Sealing position. Select the Pressure Cook or Manual button and adjust the settings to cook on **LOW PRESSURE** for 5 minutes When the cooking time is up, **wait 2 minutes** then manually release the pressure using a Quick Release. Once the float valve has dropped down, carefully open the lid turning it away from you as you lift it up. Remove the eggs and place in a bowl of ice cold water for at least 5 minutes. Peel and enjoy right away or store in your fridge for up to one week.

I have done 3LP,QR, 5 ice bath. I stored in the fridge right away. Loved it, but I was trying to shoot for a bit more custard (maybe if I ate right after cooking, it would). I will try 2LP, QR, 5IB next time and compare warm vs chilled.

New to your channel...i just used your method for hard boiling eggs. Easiest way to do hard boil eggs, best tasting, & easy to peal. You're awesome. You earned a follow from me. Thank you!

I subscribed to your channel after I got my instant pot! I love it! I have a question regarding the natural release time. I just bought my 6 qt IP last November. My sister told me the Warm time was the same as the cook temperature. Is that true? I also thought that natural release time was to simply turn off the IP and let it come down on its own? Is that accurate? Thanks so much for your videos!

Actually, you were the one who taught me how to boil eggs in the instant pot. It was one of your older videos. Works like a charm!

Bless the 2-15 method for tender eggs! Eggs-cellent presentation!

I did the 2 minutes today but let it NPR for the 5 minutes (which is built in as a reminder on newer instant pots) I then let it rest in an ice bath for 4 minutes which resulted in my perfect preferred egg (boiled medium well) for avocado toast or for my baked beans on toast meal. So I guess I will always do 2-5-4 ❤️ The best thing about IP is to keep experimenting. I was doing the 4-3-3 but now I like this better! Team 2-5-4 lol

Thanks for updating this topic. Your recipe is the standard for our house. My new Instant Pot is an 8 quart,but with 1 & 1/2 cups of water the pressure pop up drops around the 6 minute mark. I still let the time run to 14 before cold soak, is that anything to worry about? Thanks for you videos, you're really one of the best covering the instant pot!

My POWER COOKER also stops depressuring at 6 minutes and my eggs have always turned out perfect.

Eggs came out perfect. This is spot on, thanks.

Lisa, this method worked BEAUTIFULLY from start to finish. I can't ask for better! Thank you SO much for all the hard work you put into this. I absolutely LOVE the egg peeling technique!!! It was beautifully demonstrated in the video including the crackling sound of the shell as you roll it gently on the counter after 3 quick taps on the top and the bottom of the egg. It was such a joy to see the peel glide off those eggs and my egg salad turned out deliciously. A HUGE thank you!!!

Ok so I have been studying Air Fryers for about a year and finally got one, now can't live with out it. Been studying Instant Pots for a few years longer and not sure I would use it as my family doesn't like a lot of soups stuff, HOWEVER I do hard boiled eggs all the time. I even got one of the little egg poacher and 7 cooker (love it) but pealing the eggs turned out like garbage. So on a whim I got the 6 qt Instant Pot and the stacking egg trivet. I followed your 2 min cook 16 min depressurize and ice bath and OMG for the first time in MY LIFE all the eggs look restaurant quality pelled perfectly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO THANK YOU LOVE IT, on to cooking something else new.

I didn't realize that the eggs continue to cook if you don't use the ice water to cool them at the end. The 2 minute pressure cook and a 13-15 minute natural pressure release method is perfect and even works with slightly older eggs..which sometimes can be problematic. Thanks for these expert tips I love your channel and find your explainations to be easy to follow along and clear. Have you done one on asparagus?

I was never happy with the 5.5.5 method. I hard boil eggs regularly and your 2.15 made sense. I did high pressure for 2 min and NPR for only 10. The eggs were perfect. Why would I want to do this in an IP? Because I don’t have to keep an eye on it as it cooks! But sometimes I have only a couple eggs to boil so it makes more sense to just do stovetop. Thank you for the detailed testing! You’re do a great job!

Your method is simple and really works. I used jumbo eggs that have 2 yolks.

Thank you again and again!! 😊

My husband loves hard boiled eggs when he is on the go on the farm or getting parts or grocery shopping. Now he has them and doesn't have to buy them. I just made 14 with those little stack racks. I taste tested the one that cracked. Tender and delicious even without salt. Hubby also wears dentures and even with being implant/snap in he still can get sore spots. So, the insta pot beef short ribs at 45 minutes should be tender enough, too for tonight.

Wow! That was amazing. I’ve never been impressed with instant pot eggs because I was using the 5-5-5 method. Your method worked beautifully, however my eggs were a teeny bit less cooked in the very centers. I think my eggs were too cold. I’ll let them warm up on the counter for about 10 minutes or so next time. But this was fantastic. Thank you very much!

If you use a small spoon under the shell it's easier to peel and can usually get it off in one piece.

Hi, your method worked perfectly. I just cooked 3 eggs in my 3 quart Instant Pot Duo 2-15-2 ice 🧊 water. Just a reminder if your instant pot has the Keep Warm button feature & activated like mine does, this will automatically start your 15 min low pressure release. Results were perfect. Thanks ! 😊

My POWER COOKER brand has that feature and I had no idead the Warm feature starts a 15-minute depressure. I'll try that next time.

I just made my 3rd batch of eggs and will try this method next time. Have had the Instant Pot for a while but have not used it much yet. I’m changing to a carnivore/keto type diet and think this will be a great tool for me. I can’t wait to try so many things. Will use Sauté to cook bacon as soon as I go take a walk.

Thanks for the foil tip. A friend just gave me her older but still very nice Cook's Essentials pressure cooker but it didnt come with anything but the inner pot (doesnt even mention anything about any accessories in the booklet). So wish me luck, im going to try to cook a bunch of eggs using your foil tip as the first thing i cook. Im so nervous about pressure cookers for some reason. Its not something i was ever shown in the kitchen.

I didn't like the 5-5-5 nor the 6-6-6 eggs, so I experimented myself. I was trying to do the 0 minute bring to pressure & then natural release but my Cosori doesn't give me the "0" option. I then did a 1 minute with a 10 minute Natural Release & found the perfect egg for me!!!

This is honestly the BEST hard-boiled eggs I have ever made using your 2-minute recipe! They peel beautifully! I use older eggs (a week or two old), take them out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to starting. I have the 6-QT Power Cooker. I pressure it up for 2 minutes (70 psi) using 12 eggs, one cup of water and placing the included metal rack on the first level (near the top) and then allow it to naturally depressure, which takes my unit 6 minutes. Then into the ice bath for 20 minutes. This is the second time I have tried it this way, and they are perfect eggs every time! Trick is to always crack and peel from the bottom up, popping the membrane, and then roll the egg to bust open the shell completely. UNBELIEVABLE!!

Very nice well explained presentation. I've always used the 5-5-5 I will give your suggestions a go. Thank you for sharing. New friend here. 😊❤😊

You’ve convinced me - I’m about to order one. Which model do you recommend? I live in Europe, so the most recent ones may not be available.

First time ever making eggs. Went 2 minutes and release for 12. They were perfect but I’ll keep going down cuz I like em a tiny bit runny. Thank you so much for this.

U are 100% amazing.. that works perfect.

I’m new to IP. Thank you for all the videos. I just got a 6qt 9-in-1. I understand the 2 minute and slow release. But I see your pot shows how long it’s been sitting afterwards. Does that happen automatically or something g I need to program before I set the 2 minute cook time?😊

Huh, that 15 minutes seems like a LONG time! I tend to pressure cook mine for 2min, release pressure, and chill immediately. The yolk can be a little goopy, which I looooove, especially with a few drops of hot sauce. And now I need to go cook another batch so I have some for lunch, I'm hungry 😅
