Instant Pot Faqs

What is an Instant Pot? The Instant Pot is a multi-functional electric pressure cooker that can also slow cook, sauté, steam, make yogurt, and more. It’s designed to save time while producing consistent, flavorful meals.

Do I need to know how to use a pressure cooker? Not at all! The Instant Pot is beginner-friendly with pre-set buttons and safety features, making it easy for anyone to use.

Can I cook frozen meat in the Instant Pot? Yes! You can safely cook frozen meat without thawing. Cooking times may be slightly longer, but the results are tender and juicy.

How do I release pressure safely? There are two ways: natural release (letting pressure decrease on its own) or quick release (manually turning the valve). The method depends on your recipe.

Is it safe to leave the Instant Pot unattended? Yes. Once it reaches pressure, it maintains temperature automatically. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and ensure the lid is properly sealed.

Can I make soups and stews in it? Absolutely! The Instant Pot is perfect for soups, stews, chili, and even stocks. The pressure cooking speeds up the process while infusing flavors.

How do I clean the Instant Pot? The inner pot is dishwasher-safe, and the lid, sealing ring, and accessories can be hand-washed or placed in the dishwasher depending on the model.

Can I bake in the Instant Pot? Yes! You can make cheesecakes, bread, and even muffins using the steam or pressure cooking function.

How does an Instant Pot compare to slow cooking? It can do both! Pressure cooking is faster, while slow cooking lets flavors develop over several hours. Many recipes are adaptable between the two methods.

Can I cook rice or grains? Definitely! The Instant Pot cooks rice, quinoa, farro, and other grains perfectly every time with minimal effort.
