- You've never made such tasty mac & cheese so fast. Great if your in a hurry or for a mid-week meal. You'll be proud to serve this to family and company! The recipe is below:
My snail mail address is:
Hands That Cook
P. O. Box 44
Choc, Al. 36254
3 cups elbow macaroni
2 cups chicken stock or broth
1 cup water
2 tblsp. butter or margarine
2 tblsp. parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. white pepper
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 oz. processed cheese (like Velveeta)
1 tsp. yellow mustard (optional)...you'll either love it or hate it!
In your pressure cooker, add everything but the 2 cups of shredded cheese and the processed cheese.
Set the pressure cooker to 15 psi (high) and the timer for 6 minutes. When the time is up, quick release the pressure. Add the remaining cheeses and stir till melted. If mac isn't "creamy" enough, I had very good results adding buttermilk until I got the consistency I wanted but you can use water. Enjoy!!
I don't care what she uses, I sometimes forget and use metal. I just appreciate her sharing the recipe and how she did ti. No critiquing people.Just enjoy a free recipe and video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joyce Weaver Thank you for your reply. You CAN use metal if you don't use it like a backhoe!! I have no scratches on any of my non stick because I use care when using metal. I hope you try and enjoy this recipe and thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!!
The backhoe comment is hilarious!
I like the way you think. And cook!
LOL, Thank you!! God Bless, Linda
@J S I've never scratched mine...use extra care with metal. TFW God Bless, Linda
hey ....all you haters about the spoon JUST BACK OFF " This nice lady is showing us how to make easy peezy mac and cheeses ,be thankful you have a pressure cooker !!!!!!!!!!!!!
i am , and i don't know how to use it, so watching everyone's videos is an option and learning choice ..so stop being mean and curt about her spoon, she probably knows how not to scratch.
You say haters I say losers/cowards. You got to have a pretty jacked up life to post foul comments to a lady making MacNCheese. SMH
This recipe was my inspiration for finally purchasing an electric pressure cooker. I got the Aicok 7 in 1. I just made this recipe and it was perfect! I added a few stalks of fresh broccoli and it was delicious, kids inhaled it. All I have had up to now, is my classic Presto, same one for 35 years. Thank you!
I have lots of pressure cooker recipes on my channel so I hope you'll enjoy many of them! Now if we can just get a good pie crust from you I'll feel like I taught you something, lol!!! TFW Carolyn and commenting. God Bless, Linda
I'm back 4 years later to refresh my memory on this recipe. After looking around to see what other YT cooks are doing, I have to give my vote to yours as number 1. Over the years I have dressed it up occasionally. I use Knorr Chicken Tomato powdered broth to give it a little zing, add in green chilies, or some veggies like broccoli or green peas. This is a marvelous standby dish.Thank you Linda for all your great help.
Thank you so much Ivorybow! I appreciate it very much. This means a lot to me!! TFW God bless
I love your accent. And that dish looks delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Omg, someone wonderful, who uses a pressure cooker. I use my pressure cooker for lots of things and for last 10 years but have never used it for pasta. I will try this one out tonight.
This recipe is amazing. It is a great base. I modify with adding campbells cheddar cheese soup instead of velveeta and add an extra cup of pasta noodles. I've made this a lot already and it will definitely be a go to for a fast dinner in the future.
Came late to the table, but I have to say, we have the same pressure cooker. What I love about it, is it’s shape. I can cook a roast on its side, not on its end. Also, now I know I can double the recipe for a pot luck dinner. Thank you
I am STILL only using this recipe!!! 7 years and going strong
Thanks for telling me about your pressure cookers. I want one so am saving my pennies to get.lol.I just love listening to your videos. Thanks for sharing your talent . I made the blender pie crust, it was flaky as could be.
I really love her videos. I do my Mac and cheese in my pressure cooker too. I use Velveeta cheese but I put in the water or vegetable broth ( because I add hamburger to mine sometimes) I also cook the hamper first and drain the add the Mac and cheese and liquid all at the same time and it's done in 12 minutes. I love it. One pot and done!
That is suppose to say hamburger!
I tried this for the first time today in my old fashioned pressure cooker, and I loved it. My husband is not a macaroni and cheese fan, but I think if I add a little milk with the melting cheese, he will like the texture a little better. For me, the flavor was definitely superior to most versions.
+dmy lgy Thank you! I'm so glad you liked this fast and easy version! I hope you'll enjoy many of the recipes on this channel. Thank you for watching and commenting. Linda
I just made your 6 min mac n cheese and its super cheesy and tasty! Goes well with the BBQ beef ribs that I just made in the pressure cooker as well. Can't wait to try your other recipes!
Hi Richard, I'm so glad you're enjoying some of my recipes. Thanks for watching and I hope you find many more you want to try. I've got some GREAT homemade chocolate ice cream that will go on the channel on Tuesday. It would be a great success for a 4th of July get together...easy and the best I've ever eaten that was homemade. Thanks again for watching!!!
Made this exactly as written in an instapot and it turned out excellent! I really liked the way the pasta is perfectly cooked and not mushy.
Hi Lori, This is such an easy and fast recipe. You can always add your personal touches to it. TFW, God Bless, Linda
just made it for the 3rd time. Added a bag of chopped frozen broccoli at the end. Worked great! Thanks again for such a simple no fuss recipe.
Hi Lori I'm so glad you like this simple recipe! You can add anything to it to make it your own and it sounds as if you did!! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. God Bless, Linda
thank you for your recipe, I'm looking forward to using it. love the thickness of it. my family like buttered bread crumbs on there's. would it work with your recipe.
6 years later and it STILL is my go to!!! Its just easy. I add all sorts of stuff to the end (broccoli, pureed butternut, etc)@@Handsthatcook
I love your pressure cooker recipes.
So many things I love to eat.

Thank you for sharing your recipe! I will try it very soon!
thank you for the easy simple recipe. I just made it using my new pressure cooker. This was also my first time ever using a pressure cooker, I was so impressed:)
+Daisy Yang Hi Daisy I'm so glad you liked this recipe. I have many pressure cooker recipes on my channel. I hope you'll try a lot of them and enjoy them too! Thank you for watching and commenting. Linda
+Hands That Cook it was so amazing my fiance went for seconds:) thank you and I can't wait to try more of your recipes!
+Daisy Yang Thank you Daisy, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. The other pressured recipes will always say "under pressure" after their title so you shouldn't have any problem finding them. I think they'll all come up together if you type under pressure when you click on the magnifying glass on my channel. Glad your fiancé enjoyed it too!!
thank you! I'll def take a look!
+Daisy Yang Great! You won't be disappointed. Linda
Just made this in my Elite pressure cooker. Absolutely delicious, did not do the mustard. I doubled the recipe but would pull back on some of the cheese next time. This is by far my favorite mac and cheese PC recipe!
That looks yum, thanks for sharing. Always looking for good recipes to use in my new pressure cooker. God bless.
+Heike Lange HI Heike, I hope you try and enjoy this recipe! Thanks for watching and commenting!!
I'm so excited about this and so are my girls. Can't wait to try it. Thanks
Hi Tammy, I hope you enjoy this mac & cheese! So glad you're excited about it. I have a few more pressure cooker recipes coming up so stayed tuned! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Ya, it's not like macaroni has any carbs....right? I think I'd rather have rice with the meat. Mac n' cheese is more a main course in my house. This is very fast. Instead of milk, try thinning it with sour cream. It gives it a richer flavor.
I have a heat resistant rubber spatula that works great with my pressure cooker.
Hi yeah4me1, you know, I have several of those but I usually just grab what's handy. The inside of this pot is not damaged at all (lucky me!) I hope you enjoy this mac & cheese! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Can't wait to try this recipe! We love Mac N Cheese around our house, and I am just tired of the plain old box dinners. I just got the Instant Pot and love cooking in it. Thanks for making your videos, Linda!! :D
Hi Rachel, this is a good mac and cheese recipe. I think you'll enjoy it. TFW and commenting. God Bless, Linda
I don't like that block artificial processed "cheese food" either. There are two things I use in place of it, mostly depending on my mood. lol Sometimes I chop up a block of cream cheese. That has the same consistency of that artificial cheese substitute. Other times I will just just throw in a few slices of my Kraft Deli sandwich slices if I have them. It has to be the DELI kind...(yes, more expensive but it's REAL cheese)! Both melt smoothly and helps your cheddar or other hard cheeses become creamy in your macaroni and cheese dishes. Since you like the sharp cheeses like I do, you'll like the cream cheese version which gives just a bit more bite for your buck! :)
can't wait to try this one too! I got an instant pot for my birthday... love ya!
HEY PEOPLE !!! STOP WITH THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS. THIS NICE LADY IS ONLY TRYING TO SHARE HER VIDEOS TO HELP PEOPLE LEARN TO COOK SOME OF HER DISHES. HOW SAD YOU ARE TO RIDE HER ABOUT A SPOON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S HER PAN NOT YOURS.
Thank you Nancy! I appreciate it!! TFW God Bless, Linda
That's right linda
That looks yummy😁 just received my pressure cooker and I love it was hunting for videos and found you 😁 Thank You
+deanna.m deason This is a simple but delicious mac & cheese. I hope you'll get back with me and let me know how much you liked it. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Most definitely have a beautiful day.
It looks just like the Stouffers mac & cheese. very good. I can hardly wait to try it, thx for the recipe.
You're welcome Daniel. It's a good mac and cheese when you're in a hurry. TFW God Bless, Linda
I made this today and it was Delicious!! Thank you for sharing!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Renee. Thank you for taking the time to comment and thanks for watching. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!!
I'm still learning with my new pressure pot. I love your videos and you sound so kind!
+juanita1060 Hi Juanita, Thank you for your kind words! I have lots of pressure cooker recipes on my channel. Just type Under Pressure in the box that opens when you click on the little magnifying glass on MY CHANNEL and all of them will come up together. Thank you for watching and commenting!!! Linda
Can't wait to try your recipe! I use a recipe a little different in the elect. pressure cooker for Mac & Cheese, and you are so correct it's just simply awesome and no effort or much to clean! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Lisa, Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you try and like it!!!
Dear Santa,
Please bring me one of these pots?
Thank you Linda for showing how to use one of these electric pressure cookers.
What will they think of next?
Blessings to you and Mr. Sam.
Peace and Love
I do hope Santa or Jesus will make sure you get one of these pc's!! TFW God Bless, Linda
JESUS IS LORD you need to ask Jesus for the pot and if there is a post office and a name you may receive one
Saundra, what a precious answer!! God Bless, Linda
Hands That Cook to God be the glory!!! I truly believe in giving and I love my pot so much I wanted her to have one if she said her address
Drool! That looks so delicious. The pressure cooker really is worth it. That steam scares me but I guess if your careful it's all good. Thank you for this
Hi FitAnge, the steam wasn't quite through venting. I should have been more observant! The mac & cheese really had a good taste, if you want to try it. As always, thanks for watching and commenting!
I'll definitely make this if I but a pressure cooker that's for sure and your welcome
this is very good ... and I cut it half and it still worked out fine!
cyberhippy61 Hi cyberhippy61, I'm glad you liked this. I do! I hope you'll try other recipes on this channel that are just as good. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Quick, looks delicious
cant wait to try and I will add half and half to mine at the end! My recipe book said one minute for cooking pasta and that DID not sound correct. Thanks
Hello Lori, you'll enjoy this simple recipe. Feel free to add any other spices or flavorings to make it more to your personal tastes. It is a bit thick at the end so the addition of half & half will be needed. Thanks for watching and commenting. I have a lot of pressure cooking recipes on my channel. I hope you'll try and enjoy many of them!Linda
I can't wait to try this! Yum!
Hi DeeDee, you'll love this easy mac & cheese! TFW and commenting. God Bless, Linda
You always make your meals for quick and simple and delicious great job.
Thank you Rick for the compliment. I hope you're enjoying these recipes and I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Thank you for watching!!
No problem my pleasure
Just bought my first pressure cooker and came here looking for meals to cook it gave me no instructions on what to do or how to do it. But everyone knows go to you tube. Ran across your page and I'm going to do the Mac and cheese first then try some of your other meals. So glad this is here. Well off to my first meal with my pressure cooker. Time to join the rest of the world with this P.C. food....here I go.. oh forgot enjoying your videos.
***** Thank you Deborah. Enjoy the mac & cheese! Thanks for watching and commenting!!
I did cook it and we loved it.😂😁☺☺
Those are tears of joy...☺
***** Hurray!! I'm so glad to hear that...good luck with your endeavors with your new pc. I hope my videos will help!!
***** LOL....I know how you feel. I had the same feelings when I first started out!
Good video & new subscriber.
Hi Carol and welcome to my channel!!!! This is the easiest and fastest mac & cheese I know of. We certainly enjoyed it and hope you do too!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Cheers Linda , & I hope that you have a great weekend. Time for my bed now, as it's 23.35 pm here
Thank you Carol and I wish the same for you! God Bless, Linda
This looks delicious and easy, thanks for making this video:)
+robynjtr Hi I hope you enjoy mac and cheese made in a pressure cooker. So fast and easy, and you can always add your own touch! Thank you for watching and commenting!
OMG. this looks great!
littlemisshunter1 Hi, this is so easy and it is good. I hope you try it. Thank you for the comment!!
Open the furthest part of the lid first, so you don't get steam burned. I did your recipe without the processed cheese and it was delicious.
+Applepiebetty I'm glad you enjoyed it and appreciate you watching and commenting!!
Looks lovely. Thank you for sharing.x
This is easy and quick! I hope you try it and enjoy it. TFW God Bless, Linda
Key Word - Carbs! What can be wrong about that - planning on doing in a few minutes! Yummo!
Pink Turtle LOL....yep, carbs can be a good thing, but not usually. I love mac & cheese, enjoy!!
***** Oh - I did -and doing it again right now! So delish!!!!
I can't wait to try this!
Hi Bob, this will not disappoint you, I promise!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Looks delish!! But wow that seems like a lot of cayenne!
Hi booboobedo! The cayenne was to MY taste but just to sooth your thoughts, I could barely taste it. That was 6 cups of cooked mac. The amount you add is up to each individual or don't add it at all. This mac & cheese will stand really well without it. Thanks boo, for watching and commenting. Hope you try and like this!!
thank you that's what I need great video love your videos
Thank you Patricia That's why I make videos. I want to help give everyone new ideas on cooking and baking. TFW and commenting!! God Bless! Linda
great recipe thank you
This is really good!
Teresa Last Hi Teresa, I'm so glad you liked it. It's so quick and simple to be so good!!
Thanks i will try this out asap!
Hi mapp47, Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Add any other spices you like to this mac & cheese and enjoy!!
I made a similar mac 'n cheese in my Instant Pot which has a SS liner. What a mess to clean up! I will not do that again. You're lucky that you have a model with a nonstick pot!
How many minutes do you pressurize the mac and cheese for?
Dave
love your videos
Thank you Margie, I hope you'll enjoy them all! TFW and commenting God Bless, Linda
Always use the handle of a wooden spoon to release the pressure.
When I make mac n cheese I either use box mac n cheese or Velveeta. Also we love Velveeta we use it in our version of Lasagna, which is made completely on stove top.
Hi Christopher, If you have a pressure cooker, try this method it's fast, good and easy! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hi and no I have have one we can not afford one and I live in a small apartment where space is valuable
Christopher, you make it whichever way is best for you! Thanks for watching!
You probably shouldn't use a metal spoon in a coated/non-stick pot.
Hi Diane, I've been told that before but I've never had a scratch from it. Thank you for your concern. I always try to be careful when stirring. Thanks for watching and your comment.
Thank you for the video!! Somehow I don't think this is the easiest or tastiest version of mac 'n cheese. I have made a very tasty mac 'n cheese by boiling noodles and doing the usual thing putting in chunks of Velveeta, some shredded cheddar, and sour cream, a little milk and heating it all up til warm and creamy.
+Pappy I do believe it's the easiest, and it is good. You can go to a lot more trouble and steps to make a gourmet mac & cheese but that's not what I was referring to. Add your own ingredients or touches. This recipe isn't set in stone. Try it and I hope you like it. Thank you for watching and commenting!!!
Thanks, I'll give it a spin and as you say and as I do, it Always has my ingredients and touches, same as you and any cook worth their salt will do!!! God Bless!!
Im gonna do this to go with my instant pot mixed beans tommorow. But in the meantime i want ures lol.
almost exactly the way i make my mac and cheese. minus the pressure cooker.:) i add butter and milk to mine. it is really good with the Velveeta in it!
+Sharon La Tour This is very good mac & cheese so I know yours in great too! Thank you for watching and commenting and have a wonderful and blessed Christmas!
Yours looks really good too Linda! :) and yours is faster to make then mine. Did Sam like it? :)
+Sharon La Tour We all loved it, including Sam. It was so easy, fast and good!!
yum yum yum . mac and cheese, my favorite!
+Sharon La Tour you bet it's a yum, yum, yum recipe!!
I would need to use spac. And little milk. I will try this.
+Estelle Butler Hi Estelle and happy New Year! You'll enjoy this easy mac and cheese!! Thank you for watching and commenting.
i love cooking with my pressure cooker (i have the instant pot model) and i love making mac and cheese in it. can't wait to try your recipe! thanks! also, if you don't mind my asking, where are you from? your accent sounds a bit like my family who was from texas/oklahoma/louisiana. thanks!
Hi Kelli This is a simple but good mac & cheese I think you and your family will enjoy! I live in Alabama!! TFW and commenting! Linda
Alabama, that's great! I knew you had to be around the south somewhere :) I'll be enjoying this mac and cheese in California! :) have a great day
How I wish I had a pressure cooker !!!!
+Glenda Wilkins Hi Glenda....go to HSN and buy a cooks essentials...you can get it now and pay monthly until paid for. That's how I bought all of mine...I have 7 in different sizes and I wait until they go on sale. You'll love it!!
HEY, what buttons are you pressing at the beginning of the video???? You don't even say it or show it! Not very good instructions.
Hi Julie, the title of the video says it all. You by pass all the preset buttons and set the pc for 6 minutes, then follow the rest of the instructions...sorry if this aggravated you. You must be new to pressure cooking..I'll be more specific from now on. Thanks for watching!
Great recipe! Is there a way to add a little more flavor to it? I made this a few days ago, and while it was good, I felt it could use a little more taste. I'm new to pressure cooking/cooking in general, so any tips would be great! Thanks and thanks for the video!
+Jonathan Veres Hi Jonathan Add some stronger cheeses to it..OR add more cayenne pepper (a little goes a long way so taste then add more if needed) try using a swiss cheese or blue cheese..Vermont Extra sharp cheese, etc. Hope this helps!
But this can be made faster without the pressure cooker when considering the 10 minutes it takes to get to pressure.
All cheese is "processed" - it doesn't come out of the cow that way! ;-)
(gonna try yer recipe!)
Hi Mike, I hope you enjoy this version of Mac and Cheese. It's quick and easy....are you kidding when you say it doesn't come out of the cow that way? LOL Thanks for watching!!
Nutmeg also makes a great 'background' flavor for mac and cheese. Just a pinch!
Darn I put too much water in mine. I was just estimating. Next time I'll think more about it. Your recipe was tasty but I changed a few things. My adjustments were vegeta Chicken stock, and Portugese Seasoning by MasterFoods, plus I added a little more parmesan cheese when I served it in my bowl.
The changes sound good to me Geoffrey. Sorry about the water ...I know you'll remember next time. TFW and taking the time to comment!!!
***** The thing about the water is that I can't believe how the pasta doesn't need that much. On the opposite end I used to have similar problems with rice. Can you believe a cup of rice could feed four people.
I'm a rice lover. My pc says 1 to 1 ratio. Some pc's say 1 to 1-1/4...I cup of uncooked rice makes 2 cups cooked rice....being a rice lover, I could eat all of it, lol. PC's vary with the instructions. Actually a cup of rice could feed 4 if you're adding something on top of it...anything with rice is a good meal to me!!
I have had a Presto PC for over 30 years...the same one. I would love to try this but I am afraid it will burn, especially on my electric stove. Has anyone tried this with a traditional PC?
I've always used electric and no one has written to say they used a stovetop. I believe it will work..the melting cheese isn't added until the cooking process is done...remove the pot from the heat source to melt the cheese with the top of the pc just laying on top of the pot. TFW and commenting, God Bless, Linda
More than enough sodium in the chicken broth. No need to add salt.
The mac and cheese wasn't salty at all...maybe you don't need any extra salt but I did. TFW God bless!
I have been noticing, you use metal spoons ect... in the non stick insert. I was wondering if it could get scratched?
I love mac and cheese, this looks like a great recipe. Going to try it. Thanks!
+Sue Donner I have wooden and plastic spoons...somehow when I make a video I end up using metal. I have never scratched the interior of any of my non stick but I do have to be more careful when I do. They do scratch but I've been fortunate enough not to have scratched mine. Thank you for watching and commenting.
What if the Macaroni instructions call for 12 minutes, Does it matter?
If you're using the same macaroni...no. Remember you're using a pressure cooker, it takes less time. TFW God bless
why not wooden or silicon utensils :)
Bob Marleyswar Hi, I've had so many comments about using metal utensils (and I have NEVER scratched or damaged any of my cookware) I will now use silicone or wooden spoons etc.. I thank all of you for your concern.
understood i am just so brutal on my stuff i think the worse... your better than that :) thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us...There are kids people etc that never were allow when they were growing up to help in the kitchen there best friends were those on TV and now You Tube that broke down the barriers of sharing and taught the people how and what to cook. if you had to go from scratch and then some. You are doing a great job. Thank You.
Bob Marleyswar Thank you for such a wonderful compliment. If you've watched many of my videos you know my mom was an awesome cook...and...I was not allowed in the kitchen (as a child)...I'll never be the cook she was but as I got older I took the time to observe and learned some from watching her. Any other "skill", and I use that term loosely, is just from the love of food that started at an early age. I hope to give those that want to cook better a little push in the right direction. Thank you for boosting my desire to help and taking the time to comment.
14 oz cans are because if they can't raise the price they reduce the size.
You're so right!!
Can you tell me the brand/model of that pressure cooker. Thanks.
aka gecko That model isn't made anymore but I bought it from QVC. It's a Cooks Essentials! Hope this helps!! Thanks for watching.
Can someone help me out. I have an electric slow cooker. The recipe says to cook for 6 minutes. is that after its reached pressure. Cause I put mine on and it spent 5 mins to reach pressure and then started the timer for 6 mins. Is this correct?
+Madeline Jubb The "count down" on an electric pc starts when pressure is reached inside. Enter the amount of time to pressure when you lock the lid down and close the valve to the seal or air tight position. The time will automatically count itself down once the proper pressure is reached. Do NOT take the lid off until you've released all the pressure by moving the valve from seal or airtight to the steam position and all the steam has stopped coming out of that vent. I hope this helps!!
Did you understand that this is for an electric pressure cooker, not a slow cooker?
c'est dommage de ne pas. comprendre car je ne comprend que le français.merci de traduire.
mahmoud mira I'm sorry but I do not speak French...can you translate?
How do I get manual for green pan pressure cooker
Just google it . TFW God Bless
@@Handsthatcook tried that you have to use extension and it never works
@@norinegross6071 Norine, I have never heard of green pan pressure cooker so I'm sorry, I really can't help you. TFW God Bless
I got a hold of Green pan co made iout of. USA made for HSN I got the manual direct from them this for answering me
Just got my pressure cooker the book says no macaroni and cheese
I would send it back before you use it. I've never heard of a pressure cooker that won't cook mac and cheese. TFW God bless
Add some ketchup and raw onion!!!
+HighConsciousness1 surly you jest!!
what type of insert is that? It's shallower than the deep pot.
It's oval and yes it is shallower...they no longer make them. TFW God Bless, Linda
So does it cook the same in the deeper pot? i have the 8qt size.
Hi Allison, it will cook the same. Mine just happened to be oval. TFW God Bless, Linda
What did you set your pc on, mest, veggies or soup? I think each sets amount psi used
Hi Bruce..The psi does not change, only the amount of time used changes. Just set your pc on 6 minutes and it will cook (I called the manf. to check that out) Thanks for watching. I hope this helps!!
My pressure cooker is a wolf gang puck 5 qt. I use it for pot roast, shells, corn beef and now your mac & cheese. Have you ever done eggs hard boild in it? Seen some videos and looking forwardbto that. I gave away my crock pot because stuff shrinks to much but not in a pc. Thanks
bruce p Hello again Bruce, I have a wolfgang puck and an elite. They both only reach 12 psi to cook, not 15. I THINK Cuisinart still uses multiple pressures but most pc's only go to 12. I have never done hard boiled eggs in a pc. It seems (but I don't really know) that they would burst. Thanks for watching!!!
I tried this with pc set on rice 6 minutes. It took 2 (2 cuos of water 6 min cooking time) ti cook the 3 cups of noodles, the 2 cups of cheese and 4 oz of velvetta 2% milk never melted I even turned the cooker back on added 1/3 cup of milk, nothing. The cheese was from the dollar store and said nit formulated to melt, who ever heard of shredded cheese not melting? We finushed it off in the toaster oven but still not real mac&cheese
?
Bruce I'm so sorry you had that problem but I know you've solved the dilemma when you bought the cheese that said "not formulated to melt"....you should have bought better cheese. Less expensive cheese has so many additives it won't melt. Follow the instructions on the video exactly, and you should have some good tasting mac and cheese. Thanks for watching!
shredded cheese, especially the crap kind is coated with a preservative that keeps it from melting
Hows the Teflon holdin up in your cooker with the metal ute utensels?
Hi Lucio, I don't have one scratch on any of my non-stick items. Lucio, I'm old & I do use metal but with caution and have never had a problem. I hope you'll enjoy this version of mac & cheese! Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Where did you get that insert for the pressure cooker
I don't know what insert you're referring to...please explain
Hands That Cook I thought there was an insert because the pressure cooker looks so shallow?
That's because it's oval not round. What you see is the pot insert that came with it. I hope this helps!! TFW God Bless, Linda
Hands That Cook it does thank you, wish I had one for my pressure cooker!!😜
metal utensils in a non-stick pan? Oh LORD!
Hello William, I have many pots that are non stick and have NO scratches on any of them. I have many comments about the metal but hope you got more than that from this video. TFW and God Bless, Linda
thank you. I'd be afraid, is all. I have only one non-stick pan. The rest are stainless steel and cast iron.
I have stainless steel and cast iron also....my non stick are all my pressure cookers!! TFW and commenting and I hope you enjoy this recipe!!! God Bless, Linda
What was that ticking sound in the video Linda ?
Hi Carol, When I laid the metal spoon on the counter it moved back and forth till it "settled" and was still. That's the ticking noise you heard. TFW God Bless, Linda
Cheers Linda.Have a good day hon
I might skip the processed cheese due to the extra sodium. But my gosh does it look good. mmhmmmmmm...
+Deb A Hi Deb I was following a recipe and it called for the Velveeta (something I NEVER eat) so I used it. The mac & cheese was good and took so little time. I hope you try and like it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
you don't say what PSI you use for macaroni
This should work in any pc. If you have a high and low setting, use the high. TFW God Bless, Linda
Metal utensils on a teflon pot, must not last more than 1 week. let us know as it could be expensive.
Hi David, I've never had a problem--never. I use caution when using metal. Maybe I've been lucky but I don't push my luck. I never forget I'm using metal but thanks for the observation! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Couldn't you do just a box of Velveta Mac n Cheese, Water, Butter and stick of Velveta Cheese in that pot?
Hello! You can flavor your mac anyway you want to...this is a recipe. It's good but if you have other cheeses you'd rather have in it that's fine. Go with it!! TFW and commenting. Linda
+Hands That Cook ah, I only wondered cause never tried this before, I like simple things. 😊
And you're welcome for the comment. 😊
I am scared to death of a pressure cooker !!!!!
Patricia, the electric pc's have many safety features. They won't open at all if there's any steam left inside and you don't babysit them either. You set the time & when the time is up it automatically goes to keep warm....so you can go about your business and return to it when it's convenient for you. There is no need for fear anymore. You'll love the convenience and super tender meats you can pressure in less than half the time of conventional cooking. DON'T be afraid. I have 27 pressure cooked meals on my channel to help you.
Patricia Sue Perkins Dudzik Read directions from manufacturer, do their test run, then have a blast using it. Nothing like canning pressure cookers. Like all things you will have some fails, but that is life. Make mistakes and learn from them. Don’t fear them. Watch more videos and then go for it!😁👍🏼
where's the recipe? TY
Rosa M-B pause the video and write ingredient, start video, pause, etc til you have it all.
Add some Milk, please!!! It is way too thick, but it looks delicious after milk is added!
I like mine thick, not creamy...add milk if that's the way you like it. It's good either way. TY Jen for watching! God Bless, Linda
stop smoking love
+Ismail Abdur-Rahman You are so kind! I take 2 different meds that cause coughing as a side effect. Thank you for your concern, I appreciate it and thank you for watching!!
Hands That Cook a
Use a wooden or plastic spoon!!!! This is a non stick pot!!!!! Why take a chance on ruining the nice cooker?
Hi Georgia, I do use wooden, plastic or silicone but in this particular video I used metal. I have never had a problem or messed up any of these pots using metal. Although it may not seem like it, I am careful. Thank you for your concern and thanks for watching.
Georgia Spencer I agree I was cringing listening to the metal on the Teflon surface..lol
+Hands That Cook
It makes your viewers cring. Do you want us to cring?
The banging on the rim of the cooker and the metal spoon in the cooker is killing me.
+Dolores Angustia Flores Hi Dolores, Sometimes we do things out of habit and forget how it sounds to others. So sorry about that.
+Hands That Cook The noise was hardly noticeable at all!! It didn't bother me at all or even slightly distract me! I loved your recipe! I think your technique is just perfect. Thanks so much!!! :-)
+Karena Jeannette Thank you Karena. Some people don't know anything but how to criticize. I hope you enjoy this easy version of mac and cheese. Thank you for watching and commenting.
