Decided my first use of my pot would be something simple and wouldn't you know it, I screwed it up.
Shucked the corn, re-read the directions, set the corn on the steamer plate, and poured in two cups of water. Forgot the inner pot. The electronics are now drying off and the uncooked corn is in the fridge.

I cooked the corn today and it came out fabulous. If we didn't already have a full of leftovers fridge, I would be looking for something else to make.
Thinking something with pasta and veggies.

I have made corn on the cob, artichokes, and chicken burrito bowl. All turned out fabulous although I will be tweaking the burrito bowl recipe to our liking next time.
Last night was supposed to be hamburger stroganoff but upon gathering the ingredients, I learned there were only three mushrooms. Not nearly enough. Will be going to the store for mushrooms today and make the stroganoff tonight. We don't eat flour pasta here so we will have it over baked red potatoes. Thinking boneless pork chops next. Love my new toy. Ohhhh.... had to order a steam diverter because I can't remember to quick release safely. Should arrive soon. In the meantime, watch here for scald reports. LOL

My son's gf really wants one. She saw them while we were out the other day and just stood there all transfixed. I have to remember to tell my son when he gets here today. I think I'll let him buy her one for the holidays, then watch how she does with making stuff in it before deciding on whether or not to buy one for myself. If he does buy her one for the holidays then I'll buy her some accessories to go with it. Some of the foil pans Dee suggested and maybe a steam diverter thing, whatever that is, like Andrea mentioned. I'm wondering if there are any other accessories people use and find handy to have on hand, and if they're happy or not with the model/size they chose?

Yes and like it says, you aren’t cooking all of the 8 quarts, so if you plan on cooking 6 quarts you need the bigger one.

The tips are really helpful. They've got plenty of space and she'll use it a lot, especially if the larger one can be set to cook smaller amounts without wasting a lot of energy. I think then I'll have him get her the larger unit and I'll look into the accessories mentioned. Thanks

Wait for sales nearer to Christmas if price is an issue, because the 8qt is really worth having.
I bought mine at Walmart for $99 on sale...the extra few dollars is worth the ability to cook up to a 12lb turkey! |

Made baked potatoes in my IP last night. Came out perfect with almost no effort.
Making yogurt today. Seems very easy, especially after watching the video on this page. http://www.friedalovesbread.com/2017/06/easy-cold-start-yogurt-no-boil-method.html?m=1&fbclid=IwAR0VNKpKzAU2CqCQ8R-jttXvZs9kOf1Uyjzuzp_Xn6lLpLOR9ylH4wbU1Oc I belong to a FB group called Instant Pot 101 for Beginners and have learned a lot especially since most questions are asked over and over. LOL The group has posted a recipe for Crack Chicken a few times. Has anyone here made it? https://www.adventuresofanurse.com/2016/10/04/instant-pot-crack-chicken/?fbclid=IwAR2LYYHEvR1V2Lv43eiX0sk_JfVwWZbp2qRLdB_m Gws-v1P-we7JKx4y9WY

I made the best vegan cream of mushroom soup this morning and it took less than 20 minutes in the Instapot.
https://twosleevers.com/cream-of-mushroom-soup/ (I did not put jalapeno in it, used two cups of shiitake and two cups of button mushrooms, and substituted the cream with coconut cream) |

Out of charcoal and since i deep cleaned the stove today, it was decided i would make hamburgers in the IP.
My honey was skeptical about steamed burgers but wasn't up to cooking anything anyway so didn't have a choice. Seasoned only with pepper. individually wrapped each burger in foil and pressure cooked on high for 10 minutes. Added a slice of Colby cheese as soon as they were done. Juicy and tasty. Will have again. Going to add pre-cooked bits of bacon in the ground beef next time. Anyone else tried burgers? What did you put in yours?
