There are plenty of ways to use your Instant Pot! If you’re familiar with the Instant Pot you’ve for sure heard that you can make yogurt, rice and hard boiled eggs in …
I’m new to your videos and you provide fantastic information on the instant pot. Do you have a cookbook for uses of the instant pot?
Great! Thank your for your videos! Greetings from Germany.
I have never had spaghetti squash and I didn't know that's how you made it into spaghetti. I thought you had to run it through one of those machines to make the noodles. lol. I'll be trying some now. Great ideas. Thank you.
Oh my gosh, the egg and ground beef tips were AMAZING!
That rosemary bread looks delicious!!
I was so excited about the "egg loaf" that I immediately went to the kitchen and made it. I didn't have the right-sized, flat-bottomed pan, so I lined the steamer pot (holes just in the bottom) with waxed paper. The eggs came out perfect. I like chunky egg salad, so I chopped the "loaf" to my liking. SOOO easy without needing to peel eggs! (I would not use waxed paper again because it ripped when lifting it out of the basket and some of the egg stuck to it … surprisingly.)
I will absolutely use this
I wish there were more keto recipes for the instapot
I am so suspicious of these appliances. How canyon trust people who think cheese coming out of a can is normal? and that rising onion soup powder mix into sour cream is a "dip".
What gloves are you using to lift the trivet out?
What do you use if your I stpot don’t have the yogurt button
I just tried to pressure cook my eggs. And they came out perfect. I thank you very much For making it so easy. just made me egg sandwich it was delicious. It was nice not to have to peel any eggs.
Enjoyed your video
Thank you so much for this video. Love it. Very informative and helpful.
I LOVE the cooked eggs for salads,etc.! Thanks for THAT info – it was very helpful! I also liked the spaghetti squash done in the IP instead of in the oven…AND (lol) the steamed veggies is brilliant!! Thanks for all the tips! 🙂
WOW, you are a genius. All brilliant tips, definitely going to subscripe.

A tip about making the cutting of the raw squash easier (thanks to my neighbor Marilyn)… microwave your squash for just one minute. The skin will be soft enough to cut! It's a frigging miracle! Being a person with not so great wrists (I'm a potter), this is sooo much easier and SAFER.
When you're making choc. Pretzels, how do you keep the only person in the house from eating the chocolate and forgetting all about the pretzels?
Thought I would love an instant pot and I absolutely hate it.
Great ideas! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thanks So much! Impressive.
The ‘egg loaf’ was such an amazing little trick and one I will definitely use a great deal! You are probably aware of this tip already, but I use a rotary grater, place the cooked egg into the grater and it perfect,y grates the egg to prep for the most delicious egg mayonnaise! I’m from England and really thoroughly enjoy your channel and it is always a source of reliable and easy to follow recipes and time saving advice. Thank you!
Thank you Karen, today I learn about the zero minute for steaming vegetables, Love it ! Also about spaghetti squash, Love it !! Thank you ! Love my instant pot and you are a great teacher !!
I microwave my spaghetti squash whole for 5 mins and then let it cool about 20 mins ..It will cut so much easier….After that you can cook it however you like too
I buy hamburger in quantity. Divide it into 1 lb portions. Take a quart freezer bag. Put each portion in a separate bag, roll it as flat as possible, making a square pattie. Burp it, seal and date it. It will stack nicely in your freezer. When ready to use, place one bag in the microwave for one minute. (For lower powered ovens, possibly 1.5-2 minutes.) Take the bag out of the oven, flex it a few times, open it and dump it in the skillet or bowl as it is ready to use. This is a very efficient way to store hamburger.
I have an instant pot , I put it on my gas stove and it gets hot instantly
Oh my goodness, you are amazing!!!! Every single one of these tips were just fantastic and so useful. Thank you Karen for your talent with the Instant Pot and all your recipes etc. Many hugs. Claudia
I am glad you showed the zero minutes option. I use it to par cook potatoes that I want to freeze for later frying/roasting or just to make roasting faster.
Spaghetti squash I make a lot and as long as the entire squash fits in the inner pot, I do not cut it in half. Squash is much too hard to cut easily! I just toss it in whole – use the sling or basket because it will be HOT! Don't forget the required water.
You can always pierce the squash, if you want, and aren't lazy like me. I just stab it once, make sure hole faces up. It's easier, I think, to get all the squash meat and seeds out after cooked. If you want to plant the seeds, you will have to cut the squash before cooking, of course.
For bread proofing, don't take chance with a plate. Just cover the pot with a silicone mat big enough to completely cover the top of your bowl. I have several pastry mats I buy from Amazon I use for rolling out dough and covering any bowl or pan for proofing. They are flexible and will drape over bowl/pan.
If you don't have yogurt button, just saute some water until water is hot. Turn OFF, dump water, place inner pot back in, put bowl with dough on trivet, in empty inner pot. (Do NOT put dough directly in inner pot!) Cover with the silicone pastry mat until dough rises sufficiently.
Keep several pastry mats handy – you will thank me later because they are so versatile! Can use silicone mats for covering bowls with missing lids for pot in pot instant pot cooking. For thicker and heavier mats, look for silicone dish drying mats.
You know what I'm wondering….If you put food coloring in the water when you make hard boiled eggs, would they come out colored? I may just give that a try in my IP. Certainly couldn't hurt, huh?
Great idea for melting chocolate. I actually burned some chocolate last Christmas in my microwave – I had no idea that it could burn LOL So I'll definitely be using my IP for that from now on, not to mention those pretzels looked yummy! I also liked the steaming veggies. Who knew you could "zero" cook them in your IP! Thanks for all the tips, I subscribed!
