I couldn't help but to notice your beautiful, clean kitchen😀
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this, it was very helpful! I will go find your other 3qt. videos!
Hi Karen, my kind of instructor and you saved me time and kept me from selling an instant pot my kids got me Oct. 2022 for my birthday. It has been sitting in the corner of my living along with a six qt. air fryer they got me for Christmas. When I first opened mine and saw the owners manual I simply closed it back up thinking I don't need anymore to learn in addition to all the online software I use...I am going to go open it up and do the start up text and enjoy watching more of your videos. I am a healthy guy so this will be exciting. Thank you for doing this. William
You would not believe how helpful you were,Appreciate it so much♥
ahhh, thanks Carol!
Thank you for sharing. Awesome video
We just unboxed my mom's today! Super helpful. Thanks.
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
I ❤️ my instant pot and use it at least 3x a week...glad to get any new recipes to try..pulled pork is one of my favorites.
So glad to hear you are using it! It is a great tool!
I just discovered I could sprout seeds in my instant pot. Getting ready to put some seeds in today, as we are about ready for planting here in Washington.
I need a three quart too Love it ♥️
Just a point... It takes 5 to come to pressure but it will also keep cooking even after time is done if the pressure/vent is not release counting for the 5 and as much as 10 minutes. It's the whole purpose of a pressure cooker.
Very helpful!
Very nice presentation and I learned how to begin using the pot. Thank you. The Ultra Mini I bought did not come with the proper manual, so I was lost.
Super nice explanation ☺️
Finally gave in and got my first instant pot about 4 days ago. (A 3 quart) I have instantly gone into the evangelization phase. This thing is awesome. I do have room in my pantry to store it, but I already know it's going to live on the counter because I'm using it every day.
Thank you so much. Very helpful
Can I ask a non cooking questions. I love your hair. I have very curly natural hair. Do you mind telling me the shampoos and conditioners. Style products? I cannot find products I like. Your hair is beautiful. Thank you in advance.
Thanks for this video! I bought this exact model for Prime Day and haven't used it yet.
You should use it 🤪
Thank you for this video... I don’t have the 3 qt (yet), but it answered some of my questions on the 6 qt I have. I ❤️your videos and all the helpful tips you give!
Thanks so much Debra!
Is the 3qt big enough for a family of 4?
Thank you for the tutorial. I just used mine for the first time to make oatmeal for 2! Quite honestly, I don't like the way the buttons work. I already have the 6 quart "Duo Nova" so I guess I'm just used to how that one works. With the mini, there is only a "cancel" button so to turn it off, I had to unplug it altogether. But I still love my Instant Pots!
Sfar I have bought 2 direct from Instant Pot official site, the other Williams & Sonoma. , I have a 6 ultra, hate the size for me when I bought the 6 I was good, had a stroke, now I’m not good, LOL, I need everything light weight, I will be getting the 3 ultra one day, this looks wonderful Karen is the Best, only person I watch now, :)
I just got this one on Friday and haven't used it yet (moving next month) so I thank you so much for the perfect timing of this video!
You're welcome! Good luck with moving.
Thank you! @@karenbellessapeterse
Thx a million for saying the pot takes AT LEAST 5-10 MINUTES TO BUILD UP TO PRESSURE...b/c I was planning to pack up the gizmo n return, because I thought the most important feature,pressure wasn't working! 🤦🏽♀️ now I know to build in that time in any recipe I have!
Thank you for demonstrating this Ultra version of the 3-qt IP. I think I'm glad I have the Duo 3-qt version instead. I use mine a lot thanks to your helpful demos and great recipes. Yesterday I made Mexican black beans and rice - again! It turns out perfectly every time.
Why do you prefer the Duo over the Ultra?
@@lindabuckner4566 I have not used the Ultra, but my Duo looks simpler to use for the same functions.
@@kathleen3756 It does seem simpler to me as well. But then again that's what I'm used to. I think the ultra will just take me time to get used to.
Thank you for sharing. I
love all your videos and I have learnt so much about IP PC cooking method. If you don’t mind, I’d like to comment that the measuring cup that came with the IP is useful for
Asian/Chinese recipes when it comes to measuring uncooked rice 😊. Enjoy the rest of your week.
I don’t have the ultra 3qt. wanted to compare with the Duo, which I have. Your video was great. Thank you.
Thanks Eileen!
I was surprised no one told you the drip catcher slides on. Nice video though, and I too love your kitchen.
I got mine at the prime deal too and used it tonight for the first time. It looks so cute - especially after using my 6qt Duo Nova for a year - this seemed too small - but surprise - it easily made 2 cups ( US measure) of rice which is more than enough for my family. Happy with this little one!
I believe now that the red sealing ring is extra for when the one that came installed with the alliance needs r to be replaced. For a newbie, it would have been great to have it tagged as such. Your video has been very helpful. Thank you.
I have missed you, so glad to see you ❤
I have the ultra in a larger model and just use the pressure and sauté settings too.
Love this
Thank you!
@@karenbellessapeterse going to sound crazy, but I threw away the box long ago, how do I find out how large my insta pot is?
@@mr.positive6817 You could fill it up with water. 3 quarts pot would hold 12 cups of water
@@karenbellessapeterse awesome, don't know how I didn't realize that, thank you.
Thank you for the video, Karen. I look forward to your email everyday and have made many of your recipes. I have two 8 qt. Ultras and I frequently have both of them going at the same time (maybe one with yogurt and one with dinner). Hardly a week goes by that I don't tell my hubby my IP is the best appliance I've ever owned. Thank you again. Gayle
Gayle you sound like me!!!!
@@karenbellessapeterse Thank you. I consider that a compliment. I do love to cook! However, there are just two of us, so I can't do as much as I like. I'm blessed with a husband who enjoys leftovers - hence the 8 qt. pots. I've tried to convince many people to get an IP, but I always suggest they need to find countertop room, or they probably won't use it. It's major to dig it out of a cabinet. I've just finished steaming a large bag of organic kale. Much nicer than using the stovetop. Please keep the good recipes coming. Gayle
I got mine from Amazon and I love it, the concept of leaving it there unopened is just so foreign to me! How could someone NOT use it?!
I know, right?!
Hi. Would the 3 quart Instant Pot be ideal for a single person? (I’m cooking for myself only, and I eat small portions)
I got an 8 qt month ago and now got mini
How do I do 1.5 hours on pressure cooking for my pulled pork recipe
I have a new instant pot 3 litre but there is no steam link on it how do I steam a sponge pudding . Mine didn't come with recipe book can you help ?
I wish I had room for an additional pressure cooker...the 3 qt. Ah well....I'm blessed to have what I have. : )
Yes one is enough! But two is fun if you have room.
Thank you for this video. I purchased the same pot on Prime Day but was scared to use it for the first time. It went from my door directly into the closet. I'm going to try the water pressure test. QUESTION: Do you use or recommend the steam deversion valves that are available?
I personally have not used them. But I do think they are a good idea!
Hi, is this a pressure cooker or only a rice cooker?
My 3 qt. Came with a red sealing ring. I you didn’t make mention of one.
Ohhh got it. So when I want it to pressure cook I do t need to touch to knobs and stuff on top? Just let it be. Thanks so much . Hahahahaha
Ok. I own the IP LUX. Should I get this as well?
So actually they're not that different. All hype. Kind of like the fancy blenders.
How do I set the delay? I can’t seem to figure this out and no instructions anywhere
she showed how to get the delay on and off. Once you click to select on, you have to turn the knob to select the delay time, ten push the knob again and continue to press start if you have already set up the other functions. I hope this help you.
Can you link the Amazon 3 qt ultra instant pot... I own the 6 qt..ty
Sure. This is the one I bought but it was on a great deal on prime day: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0777XZBMZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Please Help! I want to sous vide but I have to have a 3 quart. I've already spent one hour online trying to determine which 3 quart model will sous vide and I'm getting tired! HELP!
Love your channel BTW:)
I've seen videos showing the ultra button used to sous vide so this model being demonstrated should work.....
How much would be a good price for the 3qt? Also, would love to hear what you end up making for your family in it. I can see making a side dish of rice or veggies maybe? Thanks!
I bought mine on prime day for $60 and was super happy about that! I'm going to use it for sides like steamed veggies and rice!
Keep an eye open because sometimes theres discounts/coupons. I bought mine on Prime Day + coupon = $39.99 + tax, I only paid $43.29. 😳 I was lucky!!
@@monkeyglo Thanks, I’ve been watching and lowest I can find is $70, so I’ll keep watching. It is helpful to know what deals others have found.
@@trishaerickson5177 if i see a low deal I post it here.
I don't own an instant pot yet but plan to buy one when I retire and start traveling in my RV. They are so large to store in a camper. Is the dimensions of the 3 QT quite a bit smaller than the larger versions?
I just got the 3 qt and it is much smaller and I think would be great for in a camper.
@@sheillaallen2538 Thanks and I just watched Karen's video on cutting recipes so that will be helpful!
Have the 3qt DUO. SO confused about recipes. Discouraged
In theory, take any 6 qt recipe and half it. 😊
Does it cook meat.
My timer does not hold the setting.
What about the ultra feature?
Saw another video ultra does sous vide!
When using the instant pot, and I’m trying to sauté, do I leave the lid off so I can stir occasionally? I’m confused about the sauté option...please help 😀
Yes, just like with a pan on the stove. The lid is to allow pressure to build. ;)
Saute and slow cook do not use PRESSURE cook feature. I don't think yogurt does either. I have lids that fit okay to cover the IP (that belong to some of my other cookware) which I use when needed such as on/off when sauteing but you can buy perfect fit IP lids on Amazon and elsewhere.
Hi, please help me … duo 5.7 l Or. Ultra 5.7l. ?…. Tiene Has sous vide? ….thanks
Wondering the same. There are so many models. I need a feature comparison chart.
where did you get this model
Amazon has it also Macy's carries it
I've had mine for over 6 months and it's still in the box. It is confusing so I use my Vortex air fryer
You can do it! Watch this: ruclips.net/video/EJd6dC5d62U/видео.html
I love both, my Instant Pot and my air fryer. It did take me about a month to unbox the Instant Pot, so I feel you on that! Is it the times to cook that is throwing you off? I always shoot for UNDERCOOKED..because you can always turn the IP back on and cook it a little longer!
Do what I did: research. RUclips videos. If not, then sell it🤔
There is a warning note ON the cord NOT to plug the pot into an outlet below the counter top! Oops...
I own an 8 qt.
This is so small. What would I cook in it? I need to justify another appliance. Thanks.
I like it for sides like rice, or making hard boiled eggs. You can also use it for yogurt so your other pot is freed up and not in use for 24 hours.
I watched a young lady cook a four pound chicken in one, without cutting it up first. Then she crisped up the skin with her broiler.
I just made a stew meat type roast with mine, I forgot to add a can of cream of mushroom soup.
Breakfast for two - oatmeal....grits....set it for overnight ready in the morning
I dont find this pot...
3 qt is my favorite, I have 2 inserts for each pot, they look like pots with holes ,made for the 3qt,with a handle when doing veggies never in the water, not water logged veggies,inserts have feet, half cup water 3 minutes, sliced potatoes 5 minutes, lift out,warm cream & butter with dried dill weed, & chives,mash by hand beautiful fluffy mash potatoes,dollop of butter on each serving,FROZEN broccoli, no basket, entire bag, in the IP insert,No water, 3 minutes can do 2 minutes if you like more crisp, -- raw carrots cut in large chunks, place in the steamer insert, half cup water,3 minutes QR always using the IP insert then the steamer basket. Hope this makes sense and helps.
Sounds like a great accessory! I'll have to get one! No water on the frozen broccoli?
@@karenbellessapeterse , no water on the frozen broccoli , entire bag, I purchase at sams, 4 bags in a bag, 2,3, minutes, no more, if I knew how to send a photo of the basket I would send Amazon says House Again, steamer basket 6.99 free shipping on first order, take the orange feet off, use the feet without, I’m using the basket right now, it’s a must have I promise.
Sorry, no, it didn’t make a lot of sense. Perhaps a more detailed explanation of your steps. Thanks for the effort, though.
I purchased an Ultra 80 8 qt with the dial.. I .put Navy beans, pressed the bean button for 60 minutes ... nothing cooked what do I do to the top buttons ??? so confused please give me a simple explanation I paid 179 dollars for this IP ..thank you
Push the Start button to the right of the knob
Are you saying you IGNORE all those pointless extra little lights? They are 2 program, Pressure or Yogurt abd I suppose Vent open (Slow Cook) the rest are really just different default times.Even Saute is just On with a timer. Marketing??
You don't have to ignore them but as a newbie they seem overwhelming and so the only buttons you REALLY need to know to start are the buttons I mentioned.
@@karenbellessapeterse I should have put a Smiley, the comment was "tongue in cheek", I hope you relaised that.
I am a fella and have been using a pressure cooker for about 50 years. The IP was my first Electric one, not sure how long ago, maybe three years, not sure, and a very good buy. I have another one of a different make bought as backup and I hardly ever/never use it becase it is not a patch on the IP.
Hope you forgive me. :-).
@@jamesgoacher1606 haha!! I figured so
Please do not do any more instructional videos. Your video basically confirmed you have no idea how the buttons are used. All I wanted to do was to find out how to set the timer for slow cook beyond 10 minutes. That isn't going to happen here. Not in a million years.
You were probably on 10 hours... Hopefully you have figured it out by now... 10.00 is hours, 00.10 is minutes
