Tips & Tricks (5)

Broccoli Texture Perfection 🥦
Use frozen broccoli florets and add them during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to prevent overcooking and maintain a crisp-tender texture.
Instant Pot Rice Hack 🍚
Rinse the rice before adding to remove excess starch, ensuring fluffy and separated grains in your casserole.
Ranch Flavor Boost 🧂
Toast the ranch dressing mix in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to intensify its flavor and remove any raw powder taste.
Chicken Moisture Trick 💧
Brine chicken breasts for 15-20 minutes in saltwater before cooking to ensure maximum moisture and tenderness in the Instant Pot.
Cheese Melting Magic 🧀
For a golden, perfectly melted cheese top, switch to broil for 2-3 minutes after pressure cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
