works great. i love that it has stainless steal pot inside kzfaq.infoUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and not the one with coating. we used to have a coated pot before, and the coating slowly peels, and i am sure went into the food that we cooked. Absolutely love stainless steel, and will not use a coated product again.This pot has many settings and many buttons, and i need to sit down with a manual to figure out which setting to use. I used the basic functions, and even though i am not technologically skilled, i turned it on and assembled it without any help.Very satisfied with this product overall.

Lisa, this method worked BEAUTIFULLY from start to finish. I can't ask for better! Thank you SO much for all the hard work you put into this. I absolutely LOVE the egg peeling technique!!! It was beautifully demonstrated in the video including the crackling sound of the shell as you roll it gently on the counter after 3 quick taps on the top and the bottom of the egg. It was such a joy to see the peel glide off those eggs and my egg salad turned out deliciously. A HUGE thank you!!!

I started with 5-5-5 method 3 years ago, and little by little I reduced the cooking time to 2 minutes with a 10 minute release (or sometimes a bit longer when I’m not paying attention to time). They always turn out much better than when I first started. I have been using the 2-2-2 method for 2 years now and everyone raves about my deviled eggs. Wish you made this video sooner! LOL! But I hope those who see this try your method - IT ALWAYS WORKS! Thank you for sharing!

Yea, I haven’t done eggs in the #InstantPot in a few years and decided to look it up again for a refresh. Watched a 5-5-5 video, had followed instructions and already started with five when I came across this video, canceled before pressure indicator was up and dropped the time to two. Almost thought there is no way those eggs are gonna be cooked. Let the sit on L until 14 minutes and the eggs were great…think 💭 I’ll drop it to 11 or 12 next time. Surprised yet in love ❤with this method.

My husband loves hard boiled eggs when he is on the go on the farm or getting parts or grocery shopping. Now he has them and doesn't have to buy them. I just made 14 with those little stack racks. I taste tested the one that cracked. Tender and delicious even without salt. Hubby also wears dentures and even with being implant/snap in he still can get sore spots. So, the insta pot beef short ribs at 45 minutes should be tender enough, too for tonight.

I did the 2 minutes today but let it NPR for the 5 minutes (which is built in as a reminder on newer instant pots) I then let it rest in an ice bath for 4 minutes which resulted in my perfect preferred egg (boiled medium well) for avocado toast or for my baked beans on toast meal. So I guess I will always do 2-5-4 ❤️ The best thing about IP is to keep experimenting. I was doing the 4-3-3 but now I like this better! Team 2-5-4 lol

Easier way is to use the steam button. Just place eggs in basket and set into insta pot. add enough water to come to the bottom of the basket. Bring water to a boil using saute. Throw the lid on and steam for 15 min. cool them down and your ready to go. Seems faster and I don't have to wait to bring it pressure. Yes, my backyard chickens fresh eggs turn out great.

@redoxjames2506 7 ай бұрын

If you think about it, you're in the "Green Zone"--the window of perfect egg opportunity-- for a longer period of time cooking at Low Pressure. At high pressure you zoom through that Green Zone much faster. Also your Instant Pot comes to pressure faster since you're using Low Pressure instead of High Pressure. Try this and see what you think: Pour the water into the inner pot of your 3 qt Instant Pot. Place the rack that came with your pressure cooker in the bottom of the pot and arrange your eggs on top of it. Close and lock the lid. Make sure the steam release handle is pointed toward the Sealing position. Select the Pressure Cook or Manual button and adjust the settings to cook on **LOW PRESSURE** for 5 minutes When the cooking time is up, **wait 2 minutes** then manually release the pressure using a Quick Release. Once the float valve has dropped down, carefully open the lid turning it away from you as you lift it up. Remove the eggs and place in a bowl of ice cold water for at least 5 minutes. Peel and enjoy right away or store in your fridge for up to one week.

I have done 3LP,QR, 5 ice bath. I stored in the fridge right away. Loved it, but I was trying to shoot for a bit more custard (maybe if I ate right after cooking, it would). I will try 2LP, QR, 5IB next time and compare warm vs chilled.

Is that accurate? Thanks so much for your videos!

I watched your egg video with the “easy peel hack”, which teaches this same method. Today (end of Jan 2023), I tried it with 5 eggs in the steamer basket (which I bought because of a recommendation from you), and followed this method exactly, in a 6 qt pot. Then I put them in the ice water bath and peeled them like you showed. They turned out really well, except one egg exploded out of its shell (which can happen with any method). Easy peeling, and perfectly cooked. I had watched a video of the 5-5-5 method and almost used it but then I decided to see if you had a how-to. Because I know you test things out, and you explain things without extra chit-chat. I’m so glad I did!

Somebody mentioned below in comments about NPR even a lot less at 3-4, before ice. I'm thinking if that works, I'd be good with changing out my 5-5-5-. Otherwise, I'm still leaning toward the 5-5-5 as the entire thing is done in 15, start to finish. I guess I hadn't noticed any issues with toughness as many had noticed, but I only use hard boiled in other salads etc vs eating them on their own where you might notice that more. But always willing to try another method out. Thanks for showing this.

A tip to make farm fresh eggs peel easily no matter what method you cook them with: GENTLY TAP the BIG end of the egg with the back of a teaspoon, hear the LITTLE “ CLICK”. ? This breaks the membrane inside the egg but not the shell so the shell and membrane peel away very easily after the ice bath.
