This is precisely what I needed. In other videos the presenters speed through necessitating us to adjust the video speed. Also I needed every piece of info described. For example, I have a stove top PC and some recipes. W/the new info here, I can easily convert them without guessing and experimenting with food. Also learned that you need to always QR seafood. Thank you.
WOW, five years and no response from Instant Pot!? WTF!? In my experience with the regular IP’s, the steam feature cooks at a constant temperature. Whereas the pressure cooking feature almost pulses as it cooks. I hope this helps a little.
Because temperature is dictated by pressure, the Steam and Manual functions operate in the same manner. Here is more information regarding the smart programs: instantpot.com/technology/how-smart-cooking-programs-work/
So, I'm making a recipe for seitan 'ham'. The recipe says to 'water steam' it for one hour. I have yet to see any type of chart that would explain how to use the steam function on my instant pot in an equivalent manner. Recommendations? Thank you.

Here is what I do with an old fashioned pressure cooker (stovetop) and an adjustable vegetal steamer basket. Get a pressure cooker rack and lay at the bottom of the cooker. This rack is about 1/4 inch in height. Get a wide coffee mug and lay on top of the rack upside down. Place the vegetal steamer on the top of the mug. The coffee mug is to keep the basket further up from the bottom and don't let the water reach the vegetable. I use only a 1/4 cup of water to steam about 1/2 pound of vegetables maybe a little more. Close the pressure cooker lid. Make sure that basket is free and does not touch the lid. Turn the stove on media high and when the valve starts jiggling turn the heat off, it takes about 5 minutes. Turn the stove off but don't release the pressure. It will take about 5 minutes and keeps the food cooking. I use this for green beans, baby carrots frozen vegetables, etc.
Can't find a way to comment on a clip that came up for me. But I wanted to say THANK YOU for the segment on using IP as a slow cooker. You simply and clearly answered my question without trying to sell me on using it as a PC. I already know how to do that. I wanted to try #IPslowcookerfunction.
Hi Sonya Q. Pyrex bowls cannot be used in the Instant Pot. You can use certain CorningWare French White I (original) dishes in your Instant Pot. Sizes that can be used : 2.5qt round, 1.5qt round, 24oz round, 16oz round, 4oz and 7oz ramekins.
You set the time you need. Once the pot reaches full pressure, it will count down the time and beep that it has finished. You can then release the pressure or let it come down naturally.

The minutes that the book calls for like broccoli, cauliflower and carrots is too much.. It was mushy... So next time am going to take a minute instead of 2,3 minutes.
I really appreciated his detailed explanation. His orderly way of talking and the completeness of his info are just what I need. And no wasted time on telling people to click like, subscribe, click on notifications, etc.
Much as you took long to get the point, it’s the best video I’ve watched on steaming, covering everything I needed to know. Thank you
omg could you take any more time to explain how to use the steam feature!
Lol!!

What is the actual difference between the steam mode and regular cooking mode? Is there a difference in temp or pressure?
WOW, five years and no response from Instant Pot!? WTF!? In my experience with the regular IP’s, the steam feature cooks at a constant temperature. Whereas the pressure cooking feature almost pulses as it cooks. I hope this helps a little.
@@toddjenest3212 Thank u for that bit of information. I've been wondering about that as well, and haven't been able to find an explaination either.
@@toddjenest3212 there is a similar question reply from instant pot 4 comments below this main comment.
How long does it take for pressure steaming, about half of regular steaming?
but steamer uses high temp so how is this different from using manual setting
What does the steaming feature do that is different than the regular manual pressure cook at the same number of minutes?
Because temperature is dictated by pressure, the Steam and Manual functions operate in the same manner. Here is more information regarding the smart programs: instantpot.com/technology/how-smart-cooking-programs-work/
This guy drove me nuts while we got to the steaming bit.

Thank you for all the information this is going to be my First time using the Instantly Pot!😍
Very detailed. Thank you so much!
Can my friend safely pressure steam her home canned foods in canning glass mason jars with sealing lids and screw caps in her Instant Pot?
No.
Here is what I do with an old fashioned pressure cooker (stovetop) and an adjustable vegetal steamer basket. Get a pressure cooker rack and lay at the bottom of the cooker. This rack is about 1/4 inch in height. Get a wide coffee mug and lay on top of the rack upside down. Place the vegetal steamer on the top of the mug.

What kind of steam bowl would fit into this?

works and looks wonderful
great video. very detailed. and the narator's voice is very soothing :0) thank you!
Can I put my pyrex bowl in it?

I st mine to 10 mins and it was still steaming beyond 10 mins. How does this thing cut off at 10 mins since I set it for 10 mins?
You set the time you need. Once the pot reaches full pressure, it will count down the time and beep that it has finished. You can then release the pressure or let it come down naturally.
@@InstantPotOfficial will try it tomorrow and let you know, thank you so much for this 👍
Nothing about the low-medium-high? That's the only reason I came here.
"Less" "Normal" and "More" are the low, medium, high.
is there a temp for fish??????????????
I wish the beeper was louder on mine. I can not hear it at all.

The echos of this guy’s voice are driving me nuts!

Can yoy steam dim sum in an Instant Pot?
dotnb Yes there is a dim sum recipe in the recipe book that came with the instapot.
Erica Spruill I’m looking and I don’t see it...
The minutes that the book calls for like broccoli, cauliflower and carrots is too much.. It was mushy... So next time am going to take a minute instead of 2,3 minutes.
Graduate course !
Ok!
Wrong button
Don't know who this narrator is, but he is monotonous and boring. They need someone else.
I really appreciated his detailed explanation. His orderly way of talking and the completeness of his info are just what I need. And no wasted time on telling people to click like, subscribe, click on notifications, etc.
I’ve never heard such a long winded explanation on a pressure cooker but never getting to the point. A simple tutorial would’ve sufficed.
Too long, awful. Could it be more boring?
works and looks wonderful
