Aundrea –
There are so many people who say the can’t cook, but I swear I’m on a whole new level of not being able to cook. This little appliance helps expand our menu and I Have learned to do so much with it. I will sum up in a nutshell, I love how easy it is and how I throw everything in it comes out done. No stirring and not many messy dishes. I still don’t love it for meats (which I don’t eat much of anyway), but I think that’s just a matter of needing to experiment more with them. I seriously can’t believe how many foods can be cooked in here!
What got me thinking about the IP was talking to a friend at work who is a firefighter. He works long shifts with mostly men, they can’t really cook, but they just buy meat and throw it in here. He swore by it. Then someone else chimed in and said they pressure cook a lot. About a month later it went on sale for Prime Day and I picked it up. I am all of a sudden a much, much better cook! There are so many cookbooks for this, my favorite beingÂ
Hip Pressure Cooking: Fast, Fresh, and Flavorful
 and there’s a wonderful Facebook page where people post their successes and fails, so we can all learn from each other. This whole last month has been wonderful. I’ll highlight some things I’ve tried or heard about:
-Chicken: For the first time every I cooked a whole chicken (see picture of it falling apart). My husband couldn’t believe I cooked a whole chicken since I usually buy them at the store already made. It was excellent. I did 6 minutes per pound + 2 minutes. I also cook chicken thighs for dinner about once a week, which I had never cooked before. I do that for 10 minutes with some chicken broth and whichever seasoning sounds good. Ironically enough, I can’t get my classic boneless, skinless chicken breasts to turn out, but based on my Facebook group a lot of people have success with them.
-Pot roast: I tried this once and it didn’t work great. It was a very lean, thick cut of meat. I heard that the leaner meats are harder to do. Next time I’ll try something different.
-Eggs: I can hard boil 30 eggs at once!!! I work 12 hour shifts and eat 4 with my lunch and 4 with my dinner. Since I work 4 days in a row I have to hard boil 32 eggs. I used to use my egg cooker and do 7 at a time, which was a pain. Now it’s quick and easy!
-Steel cut oats: Another thing that I never ate before. At one point a couple years ago we tried making them a few times, but it’s so annoying having to stir the pot all the time and then half the time I ended up with some crusted on the bottom which was annoying to clean up. Now I use the PIP (pot in the pot) method. I put 1 cup of water in the bottom, then the trivet in, then 1 cup of steel cut oats in a large Pyrex glass dish with 2 1/2 cups of water. I put it on for 10 minutes manual high pressure and walk away. Once the pressure releases and I open it they are perfect! I then divide them up into mason jars and put them in the fridge. At breakfast time I warm them up, add some milk for creaminess and they are perfect. We eat them every single morning now. The only dish I have is the Pyrex bowl and I just rinse the metal pot out since it didn’t touch any food.
-Soups: I had never made soup before this. I have made chicken noodle soup many times and everyone loves it. I HATE how chicken noodle soup always has mushy noodles. Not mine! I cook the noodles to how I like them. I’ve bene wanting to experiment with more soups, but I’ll do that in winter.
-Yogurt: Another amazing feature. I’ve made yogurt 3 times and love it. My 2 year old only eats my yogurt. I can make a gallon of organic yogurt for a fraction of the cost of buying it at the store. It takes some patience, but the hands on work part of it is only about 20 minutes. There’s a lot of waiting for things to heat, cool, incubate, set. I’ve finally learned when to start to have each step finish at the right time. Feel free to ask if you have questions.
-Sides: I found a recipe for a mac and cheese that everyone loves. My daughter and her friends are always begging me for it. The best part? It’s only 5 ingredients (pasta, heavy whip, butter, salt and cheese). It also only requires washing a cheese grater and the pot and it only takes 20 minute from start to finish. No hard to pronounce, artificial, food dyed ingredients. I have also mastered spaghetti with meat sauce. Before this I had never once made spaghetti with meat sauce. Now I do it all the time. Again, I only have ONE thing to clean afterwards. If I tried doing with without the IP I would have a pan for the meat, pot for the pasta, strainer. It only takes about 20 minutes start to finish. It can be real simple (meat, jar of sauce, pasta, water) or get really complicated with making your own sauce (even then it’s still pretty easy).
-Veggies: Many veggies can be cooked in here. Delicate ones, like broccoli are harder to do. Con on the cob in here is amazing though. Much quicker than any other method.
-Deserts: I haven’t made a desert yet, but on my Facebook group a ton of people are making cheesecake. I try to keep deserts out of the house and just have them for special treats when we’re out. So I haven’t tried this. A ton of people in my Facebook group are doing it and they look like they turn out great.
-Chicken broth: I am not the type of woman who makes chicken broth. My step-mom does that kind of stuff and I look at her like “why don’t you just buy it”. Well, now I am the type of person who makes chicken broth. After throwing a whole chicken in here I take the carcass (I hate that word!) and put it back in with some veggies, set it for 2 hours and it’s done! I strain it and then have beautiful, healthy, yummy chicken broth. The first time I did it my husband looked at me like I was cray-cray. Now he helps by saving his bones. There is no better chicken noodle soup that when it’s made with homemade broth! Yummy!!!
-Spaghetti squash: This is one food I accepted that it’s harder to make than it’s worth, so we hadn’t eaten it in years. Not anymore! I put it in for 20 minutes without cutting it. When I opened the pot the squash is intact, but with the skin peeling off. It’s easy to cut it in half from there, scoop out the seeds and separate it.
-Applesauce: Whenever my apples start getting too soft, I peel them, use my little apple slicer and throw them in here with some cinnamon. There are recipes for if you want to add sugar, lemon, honey, ect. I prefer just apples and cinnamon though since it’s healthy and natural. My kids love it. 8 minutes on manual with a natural release. I just stir it with a fork and don’t even need to blend it. There are small, very soft chunks. I wish I had this when my son was a baby!
Those are a few of them things I’ve made. I have learned to experiment more. Since I usually don’t have to do many dishes with the IP I tend to enjoy experimenting. I have a cookbook I write all of my successes in. My family is constant surprised at how much this has changed how we eat. I usually don’t keep appliances out on my counter, but since I use this at least once a day I never put it away. The only downfall is I think there is a learning curve to it. It’s a little intimidating at first and requires some trial and error. I was terrified of almost everything the first time I did it. 90% of everything has come out great. I’m learning what I like to cook and don’t like to cook in it. I love that when we have a last minute neighborhood get together (it happens a few times a week) I can whip up a pasta dish and veggie real quick.
Tips (Added Jan 2017):
-Recipes generally don’t include time to come to pressure. Think of this is the same as your oven warming up or water boiling. After your food goes in the pot it has the pressurize, then the timer starts counting down. You can speed this up but turning on “saute” first. It cuts the time more than in half.
-Instructions have lingo related to you the pressure gets released. First there’s natural pressure release (NPR). This is just leaving the pot alone until the pin drops, indicating there’s no pressure in the pot. The lid can then be removed safely. Then there’s a quick release (QR), which is where you turn the pressure release valve at the far side of the pressure cooker. This takes about a minute and releases a bunch of steam, so you probably don’t want this under a cabinet. There is also a chance of some food/fluid coming out, depending on what’s in the pot and how full it is. If that happens you can wait for it to do the NPR or you can do short, slow bursts.
-If you’re having problems with getting anything to work check all the parts first. Is the silicone ring in place? Is the pin in place and able to move up and down? Is the valve set to “sealing”? Is there enough water/fluid in the pot to pressurize?
Nov 2016 update: Well, it’s not longer sitting on my counter, but I still use it about 2-3 times a week, which is more than any other appliance. I got over the honeymoon period, where I tried EVERY food in here. Now I know what I like and what I don’t like in here and I stick with that. I recommend you get 2-3 good cookbooks with this and start finding fun recipes on Pinterest. I keep adding pictures and things in my review.

Compre la Instant Pot (IP) después de escuchar muchas opiniones de mis amigas diciéndome que tenÃa que tener una. Yo era una persona 100% satisfecha con mi slow cooker, pero por razones varias tuve que venderla. Después de 7 meses me decidà a comprar la IP. Soy una persona joven que no tiene demasiada experiencia cocinando. Hice muchos experimentos para acostumbrarme al uso y explorar todas las opciones.
Prueba 1: Caldo de pollo (Opción: Slow cook). Hice las mismas caldos y sopas que hacÃa en mi slow cooker. Me pareció muy cómodo que podÃa programar un tiempo para cocinar y después solo mantendrÃa tibia la comida.
Prueba 2: Arroz blanco (Opción: Rice). Decidà incursionar a las funciones con presión y hacer arroz con la opción predeterminada. Fue un éxito rotundo. El arroz estaba esponjoso y suave. Nada se pegó en el fondo de la olla.
Prueba 3: Chayotes asados (Opción: Sauté). Si bien fue divertido hacer esto en la IP, fue un poco mas torpe cocinar en este modo que si lo hiciese en un sartén u olla convencional. Sin embargo, esta opción es útil para recalentar.
Prueba 4: Arroz integral (Opción: Manual). Por ser un cereal mas duro, la opción de Rice no es suficiente. Aun asÃ, obtuve un resultado exitoso utilizando el modo manual.
Prueba 5: Avena con manzanas (Opción: Porridge). El resultado final no es grato a la vista pero el sabor es impresionante. A partir de ese dÃa, la Instant Porridge se ha convertido en el desayuno estrella de la casa.
Prueba 6: Caldo de pollo (Opción: Soup/Broth). Intente hacer un caldo de pollo a presión, y un éxito mas.
En esta época trabajando en casa, la IP ha sido una gran aliada pues no tengo la preocupación de que la comida se va a quemar mientras estoy en alguna junta. He hecho platos que nunca me habÃa animado a cocinar (p. ej. mole de olla con costilla cargada y suadero), y he optimizado mi tiempo en la cocina con platos con los que normalmente tendrÃa que estar pendiente como frijoles, lentejas o arroz.
Todo lo que me decÃan mis amigas era cierto. Vale completamente la pena y recomiendo encarecidamente a toda persona que busque cocinar de manera eficiente en espacios y tiempos optimizados.

I received my Instant Pot right before the end of the year as I had pre-ordered it. I had done a good amount of research on the previous model and was convinced it could replace my small slow cooker as well as diversify my cooking and reduce my time in the kitchen. The main improvements I liked on this model over the previous model was the holder for the lid on both sides of the handles of the pot, the larger display, and the main improvement I was interested in was the dual pressure setting (mainly comes in handy for veggies for me).
At first use it took a little getting used to this new appliance. Some of the features which take some getting used to for me were the pressure release valve, and how to use the electronic controls. When cooking in a pressure cooker using traditional methods it is necessary to set the pressure release valve to closed, this allows pressure to build up in the pot during cooking. During the first few times I had forgotten to twist the pressure release valve to closed. Not doing this will eventually cause a light whistling sound and steam to come out of the release. Twist it back and all is well. I mention this because I read a review giving this pot a 1 star rating, and I could tell they hadn’t closed their pressure valve based on the results they said they achieved.
Once you have used it a few times you will remember to shut the valve, as I have. Once the valve is closed then the second part I found took some getting used to was the controls, but now I realize they couldn’t be easier. This is truly set it and forget style here people. Once you close the valve on the lid and lock the lid in place (you will hear an electronic “chime” letting you know the lid is closed) then it’s as easy as hitting the button labeled “manual” and choosing an amount of time with the selector. This will allow you to follow recipes for times if you’d like. You can also hit the “pressure” button to adjust between high and low pressure. There are also a whole bunch of pre programmed recipes, a slow cooker option and a convenient “sauté” function which I have used a number of times. 10 seconds after choosing your options the cooker will beep 3 times and the pot will start to heat up. (make sure again you have the pressure release valve closed here)
It takes varying amounts of time for the pot to heat up but usually it’s between 5 and 10 minutes for the pot to create enough pressure to where it pushes up a metal lock on the back of the unit, this prevents you from opening the pot until the pot is at a safe pressure. Once the lock sets it’s only a few minutes till the timer will count down on the pot letting you know how much time is left. So keep in mind it takes 20 minutes or so from start to finish to cook 10 minutes cook time on the pressure cooker. Sometimes it seems like nothing is happening, but if you listen carefully you will hear boiling in the pot whenever it is in cycle. Once the time is up the pot will stay locked until you release the pressure by twisting the pressure release valve, or by waiting for 10 minutes to an hour for the pressure to release naturally. This will drop the metal lock in the back so you can open up the pot. One feature i love is the keep warm function. After any cooking is completed the system automatically goes to “keep warm.” One night i forgot my chili in the pot after cooking it, but woke up late at night on the couch to realize it was kept warm all night! Pressing the off button will toggle the keep warm function on and off.
The stainless steel cooking pot is very easy to clean, however 6 of 10 on the unit for ease of clean. I love the stainless steel insert especially, it is very thick and of high quality. I just ordered a second one so i can more easily cook and store a variety of different things without having to constantly be cleaning and moving containers and food.
It does take a bit of getting used to this seemingly complex cooker, but after a little reading of the manual (which is great by the way) and some experience you will be able to cook just about anything in the instant pot. I just started cooking in the last year and I’m cooking up some amazing soups, chilies, meats, rices, pastas, and vegetables all in my first couple weeks, and i’m a beginner!
After looking into the pressure settings (it runs at around 11.x PSI on high) I am able to better plan my cook times. Note: Many recipes I found for pressure cooking on high are for 15 PSI so I have had to add a few minutes to most recipes. I also live in Denver, CO so I have to add some cook time due to the higher altitude as well. I found some good info using google on how to adjust pressure cooking for altitude.
I would highly recommend picking up a food slicer with the instant pot as well. I am dicing onions, celery, carrots, pineapple, potatoes, and more in seconds instead of minutes, then with the help of the instant pot I’ve got that stuff cooked quick and served hot. The slicer in combination with the instant pot cuts my cook and prep time by a third to a half I would estimate, in some cases more. I got a top rated Borner slicer off Amazon for about $30, and it’s worth every penny.
Most importantly the food tastes amazing, meats are tender, rice is well cooked, veggies are incredible. I would recommend this Pressure cooker to anyone in the market for a replacement slow cooker, someone looking to cook more quickly, anyone looking to eat healthier, and for any person without access to a stove.
I plan on purchasing more as gifts for family in the future. For those of you ordering an Instant Pot: Your only regret will be that you didn’t get one sooner!

I’ve become a big fan of Instant Pot products since I bought their air fryer, Oh my goodness, I just love this product!
The Instant Pot products are super nice!
Saloni from Instant Pot helped me choose the perfect model for my needs. We communicated back and forth for 2-3 days, but she was incredibly helpful throughout the process, guiding me to choose the Instant Pot Duo. The products are clearly of great quality with thoughtful design and excellent safety features. I believe everyone should have an Instant Pot in their kitchen.
I explored many brands like Geek robocook, kuvings, Wellspire but knowing Instant Pot is the number one brand in the USA and my great experience with their air fryer made me choose them. They’ve been in the market for so long and have perfected their products.
I used to be scared of traditional pressure cookers because they can be very dangerous and might explode at any time. But with the Instant Pot, I feel very secure due to its many safety features. It also has useful functions like delay start, which allows you to set it and forget it. You can set a timer, and your food will be ready when you wake up the next morning.
I also appreciate how it helps with fermenting idli batter and making yogurt at home, especially in the cold weather in Bangalore. Setting yogurt used to be a hassle, but the Instant Pot has made it much easier.
Additionally, Saloni followed up to ensure I received my product in good condition and helped set up a demo call with an expert. The expert, Mr. Jivan, called me promptly, had excellent product knowledge, and cleared up all my doubts.
Since getting my Instant Pot, I haven’t gone a day without using it. Most of my other pots and pressure cookers are just sitting on the shelf unused. I’m also considering buying more Instant Pot inner pots and possibly another Instant Pot itself because one isn’t enough for me. Eventually, I might get rid of all my other kitchen products and just keep the Instant Pots. They’re incredibly convenient. Thank you, Instant Pot!
