Over many years of making bread or dinner rolls, I have used a variety of sources of gentle heat for proofing and now, with my Instant Pot, you have provided yet another. I LOVE choices! Thanks.😁👍
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.
I love your channel! These tips are brilliant, especially the double boiler idea. I would like to suggest a tip for you. If you soak a paper towel under the faucet, wring it out, and put it on your countertop, then your cutting board securely on top of the paper towel, it will not move. For larger cutting boards you may need two towels. I’m new to the instant pot and your videos and blog have helped me immensely. Thank you!
another cutting board stabilizer tip is to use jar opener grips (mine are made from the bumpy shelf liner stuff) pop one or two of those under your board and it won't move anywhere...and when you are done you can clean it if necessary and put it back into the drawer for next time. Although if you are going to use the wet paper towels, I would suggest leaving them out to dry afterward to use for another task later.
I have been watching your class and I want to tell you your are wonderful you have a very nice voice very calming .God bless you for all you do love the way you did the eggs.
I am so happy to have discovered your channel & website yesterday! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the IP and the crockpot. I actually made your crockpot cornbread yesterday. The result was really good! I cannot thank you enough! I am going to look at gluten-free bread baking in the crockpot.
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.)
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 !!
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 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.
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 love the Instant Pot I have and use it in making so many dishes and boiling eggs for making salads with. Since I am single the 3 Qt pot is perfect for me and I have varied accessories for use in it.
Great tips. I really appreciate these videos. Quick question...does anyone use a 3 qt inner pot inside the larger instant pot for smaller sized meals? I just bought one, but I'm curious how to judge cooking times for a 3 qt inner pot without recipes for it specifically. Any tips? Thank you.
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.
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! :-)
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!
I buy my ground beef in large chubs at the restaurant supply as it is cheaper. I open the package, divide it into 1 lb sizes, place it into a zip lock freezer bags, roll it out so it is evenly spread in the bag, make sure all the air is out and seal it. This way, it stacks easily in the freezer, taking up less space. When you are ready to use it, simply pop it into the microwave for one minute, some microwaves require 90 seconds. Bend it, open the bag and it is ready to cook. How neat is that!!!
Useful Pro tip! So knives, you know how a super sharp knife almost feels like it pulls a little? Scratchy kinda sensation. Ok, so if you zoom into the blade with a microscope you see something interesting. The entire length of the blade edge is feathered. Tiny microscopic feathers all the way down. A dull knife is the result of those tiny metal feathers being bent to each side of the blade, this happens with use and abuse. This is why most knife professionals will use a sharpening device called a "honing steel," it has a handle and is shaped like a baton. By pulling the blade along the honing steel, each side as you have probably seen chefs doing at a quick pace, this bends the feathers back out to center and lines them up. The result being the sharpest the blade can be. Pull through sharpeners unfortunately do not accomplish this very well and mostly damage the feathers further by bending them into an unnatural direction. For your paring knife, try a honing steel!! I had to share this because its so cool to know lol.
So pro tip here...If the valve is raised up, you can push it down with your finger. There is no electronics involved. It raises up and locks mechanically. You can try this using a towel toward the end of releasing the pressure. Just don’t burn yourself.
Michael, You are so right. Mine went up too. I don't even recall what I was doing, but it was not "pressure" cooking. I thought I'd cry without my small cooker for even a few days. Then I realized it was just that little aluminum pressure pin. I pushed it down and it was free!
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.
My Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 has a Yogurt button, but not an Adjust button, so when I put the bread in to proof, I couldn't get it to Low - it stayed on Normal. I'm proofing it now, so hope it works. I'm using your rosemary bread recipe but I noticed it doesn't say anything about kneading the dough.
I'm having 2 issues with my IP! How to clean the heating element is getting stained! What is the best way to clean it? My other issue is boiling eggs! I used to get my eggs for deviled eggs perfectly now they come out uncooked?
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
Thanks for the tips. Can I still use the instant pot for my bread to rise if I don't have a yogurt button? If so which button should I use & for how many minutes? TIA
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!
Hi, every time I make rice it seems to come out all sticky even Basmati in my instant pot. What am I doing wrong? I do equal water with rice and cook on manual pressure high for 6-8 mins and let the pressure decrease naturally. If anyone knows or has tips? I'd appreciate it.
I just want to tell you instead you when you raise the pressure you can put a towel for your cabinet done done with your cabinet I tried it and it went very good I put a towel in the steam

About the spaghetti squash. I like it alright, but it's just squash and don't tell me it's noodles. That said, I'd like to have some recipes. that use it. I've heard they're really easy to grow and store really well, so I'd like to give it a try.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Btw, love your channel... I've learned a lot from you. Thanks a bunch!
I liked the egg one. It has given me an idea of how to poach a egg in one of those cup things which float normally. I wish we could get the spaghetti squash over here, they look interesting. Reluctant to defrost meat like that, prefer the microwave. I have a culture problem with the zero minute thingy because under normal working I like to bring the liquid to boiling before putting on the lid and then see steam before putting on the weight/sealing knob. However I saw you did frozen corn. Do you think this would work with other frozen veg, baybe the low pressure setting?
Doc Miller I bought it on amazon: Good Cook 25739 Touch High-Temp Hamburger Meat Chopper www.amazon.com/dp/B00TTZGVSC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_4BbAEbCEWC5RE
@@karenbellessapeterse do you have any guides to other meats? I have a pork loin I want to cook. Don't know if there is a time for it. Approx weight 2 lbs. Thanx.
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?
Yes they do. You should see several if you do a search in Amazon. I do not have one, but it came up as a suggestion for me tonight since I just ordered a 3-quart silicone steamer basket. I had been looking for that for a while. I have not found 3-qt size before, so I just quickly bought it. I love the smaller electric cookers. I have an old 2-qt from Cooks Essentials too. It is difficult to find accessories for these. They are becoming very popular now, so hopefully the accessory manufacturers will start selling more options for these smaller pots soon.
You can use the "keep warm" function. If you do not have a button/function, put in on a setting that cooks for 1 or 2 minutes, then let it go to keep warm, dump out the water, dry, then add a fat to your pot (like she did to keep the dough from sticking). It should work similarly to the yogurt temp.
These tips are wonderful! You are definitely my to-go-to instant pot extraordinaire person! Thank you!
Over many years of making bread or dinner rolls, I have used a variety of sources of gentle heat for proofing and now, with my Instant Pot, you have provided yet another. I LOVE choices! Thanks.😁👍

cant wait to buy some squash!! thank you!
Anna Hall it’s so good!
Why L instead of D for done?
Why have I never seen or thought about the egg hack?? It'll be perfect for egg salad. No need to be pealing so many eggs
I don't have a yogurt setting, so I guess I'm out of luck for proofing bread--right?
Marguerite Dawson yes I’m sorry
You can use the "keep warm" function. If you do not have a button/function, put in on a setting that cooks for 1 or 2 minutes, then let it go to keep warm, dump out the water, dry, then add a fat to your pot (like she did to keep the dough from sticking). It should work similarly to the yogurt temp.

Awesome! Thanks for that info, definitely will try that.
What kind of gloves are you using? They look so much easier than the big thick ones.
They are like grippy soft gloves that I got a long time ago! I don't know what they are called. I will research it.
