      @@yessicaongay If you don't have a yogurt button, you may do the yogurt wherever you want (stove or IP). You need to boil the milk up to 90 degrees C (I don't know F), then after boiling, let it cool to 37-40 C (that's around 100 F), and add the starter or some real unsweeten yogurt. Now the tricky part starts. As yogurt likes to stay at 37 C ( close to 98F). If you don't have a yogurt maker, you may try to leave the yogurt in the oven with the light on (do not heat the oven). I tried that and it works. You need to let it stay in that oven 8-10 h, than move it in the fridge. NB I did the oven method by moving the cultured milk in some jars (not a big pot).

    Great video. Your shredded chicken idea is great. I was a chef in Mexico for a while and did a lot of shredded "stuff" for tacos, tostadas, etc. I found a REALLY easy way to shred chicken, pork, beef or anything. Put the cooked meat in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer on lowest speed for about 30 seconds and you'll have perfectly shredded meat.

    To my experience, you do not need to boil the milk (extra work). Just add your yogurt (small portion saved from previous batch) directly to cold milk from refrigerator. Hit the yogurt button and set for 8 hours. The yogurt came out very creamy and not sour at all. Hope this helps.

    Great video. My number one most made thing in my pressure cooker is eggs. I use a silicone egg rack I got from Target. It’s yellow. Holds 9 eggs on each. I have two and use both in one pot so I can do 18 eggs at a time (instead of 6 in each pot like you did). They come out perfect and I have never had a problem. I don’t know if anyone else commented on this but it was too much to try and look through 900 comments. Anyway, thanks for sharing your video.

      @j.d.-alawyerexplains5064 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@juanitapina3621 I just put it down flat. We have thick aluminum cookie sheets, and aluminum is an excellent heat conductor. I leave it with the flat part on the granite. If you turn it upside down, it could slide, and you don't want it flying off and scalding someone. Many IPs are different, and there are lots of different makers. One thing I would do is put the pan under there, and then check it about midway through cooking (feel the pan around the bottom of the pot) and see if it's hot. If it is, one additional thing you can do is put that rubberized shelf-liner under the pan. But it shouldn't be necessary as the pan will act as a heat sink and diffuse the heat away from the granite. Good luck!

    I like to cook eggs in my instant pot for the same reason. I've made yogurt using the heat and cool method but I'll be trying the cold method with ultra pasteurized milk. I've cooked whole frozen chicken many times, they were chickens I raised, I have also cooked frozen chicken breast. I like to make shredded taco chicken so I add Salsa before cooking. I've made different types of rice that turn out great l and I love making chicken congee. I prefer cooking rice using the pot in pot method now. I also learned how to make oat groats that turn out more like brown rice but better! That recipe can be found on TH-cam by typing in instant pot oat groats. I think the video is by nutmeg notebook. So many yummy recipes have been made in my instant pot. Happy Holidays and thanks for sharing your favorite instant pot recipes.

    I make yogurt in quart mason jars. I put two cups of water in the IP pot followed by three jars. Most, although not all, will fit (at least in my Duo) if positioned just right to clear the extensions in the lid. After the boil cycle, I take them out, letting them cool with a napkin covering the top. When they reach about 95 F, I add the yogurt starter. (I use Lifeway's unflavored Kefir, which comes in a bottle and has 12 active cultures.) Then I put them back in for an 8+ hour yogurt-making cycle. At the end, I don't strain. I just pour off a bit of the liquid and then into the refrigerator The big advantage is that the yogurt is made in the storage jars and there's nothing to clean afterward.

    For making yogurt is it possible to warm the milk to 110 instead of boiling to 180 and cooling.
    On the chicken section of the video, you mentioned a minute per ounce,, for the cooking time, plus 3 if you need to shred. You added 2 chicken breasts, each weighing 14 ounces, but set the time at 17 minutes. Was that right?

    What an expert! I admire your confidence, it shows in the ease with which you teach...I’m going to be following you. I’ve had my Instant pot for 4 years, and still don’t have an all round familiarity with its functions. This holds me back from using it to the max, despite my great love of cooking.
    If you have any suggestions to nudge me past my technophobia, I’d be most grateful.

    For real, thank you very much for sharing a lot of really good information and tips on the instant pot! I just got one for the first time, and although Ive been wanting one for a while, I admit to being a bit intimidated by it. Ive been circling around it like a shark until I get over my new appliance jitters lol. Shirley

    I am a recent subscriber but a seasoned pressure cooker of MANY years, starting with the stovetop pressure cookers to the Instant Pot (which was developed in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, the city I grew up in👍). I enjoy your videos and look forward to trying yogurt making. One question...Do you use the leftover whey? I understand that it is nutritious.

    • @karenbellessapeterse
      @karenbellessapeterse  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can use it in making your pancake batter or many other ways. I have been told you can feed your plants with it but you might want to check that out. I would suggest you Google it which you probably have already done.

      soniam372 NPR stands for natural pressure release. In Instant Pot lingo, it means don't turn the pressure release valve to let the steam out. Just leave the pressure valve closed until the pressure lock pin drops back to its unlocked position.

    Because I have retired, I am now the cook for the household. My wife gave me an instapot for Christmas. I have done a couple of meals in it (Paula Dean’s Black eyed peas were a hit). Thank you for this.... I will be trying ALL these recipes. I will probably need to get some more container pots, sealing rings and a food thermometer. But as you say..... Amazon. OH.... instead of chocolate presides, I think chocolate popcorn would be perfect.

    Many thanks, Karen, for this. When I cook dried chickpeas, I soak them overnight, set the IP for 5 minutes, use full NPR, and believe they're 'creamier' than by other timings, so maybe it isn't true only for hard boiled eggs?
