Instant Pot Viva 6 Quart Recipes

INSTANT POT YOGURT

Steps:

• Pour the milk in a 6-quart Instant Pot® and put on yogurt setting. Press the adjust setting to boil (see Cook's Note). Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. After the boil cycle is complete follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Be careful of any remaining steam and unlock and remove the lid.
• Stir the milk and check the temperature using an instant-read thermometer. The milk must reach a temperature of at least 180 degrees F. If the milk is not yet hot enough, repeat the boil cycle until the milk comes up to the correct temperature.
• Remove the pot insert and allow the milk to cool until it reaches a temperature of 110 to 115 degrees F. (To speed up this process, place pot in an ice water bath and stir, being careful not to get any water into the milk.) Place 1/2 cup of the milk in a small bowl and stir in the store-bought yogurt until combined. Stir the yogurt mixture back into the milk mixture in the pot.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Put on the yogurt setting and set the time for 9 to 12 hours (9 for a looser, milder yogurt and 12 for a thicker, tarter yogurt).
• Remove the lid (there will be no pressure, so no pressure release is required). Carefully remove the yogurt and transfer to resealable containers.
• Refrigerate until completely chilled and set, about 4 hours.

50 BEST INSTANT POT RECIPES

Steps:

• Add Water: Put inner pot in Instant Pot, then pour 2 cups (500ml) of cold water in the inner pot.
• Close Lid: Make sure the silicone sealing ring is properly seated in the rack, and nothing is blocking the Venting Knob & Floating Valve. Close the lid by lining the two arrows, then turn clockwise.
• Seal Instant Pot: Turn Venting Knob from Venting Position to Sealing Position.
• Set Pressure Cooking Time: Press the Manual or Pressure Cook button. Press the "-" button until the indicator says "2". The default setting should be at "High Pressure".*Note: This means we're pressure cooking at High Pressure for 2 minutes.*Pro Tip: It's normal for some steam to come out of the floating valve during the preheating cycle. Once there's enough steam in Instant Pot, the floating valve will pop up. It takes roughly 13 minutes to reach High Pressure.
• Release Pressure: After pressure cooking for 2 minutes, your Instant Pot will automatically switch to "Keep Warm" mode. Press "Cancel" to turn it off. Carefully release the pressure by turning the Venting Knob from Sealing Position to Venting Position.
• Open Lid: Turn the lid counter-clockwise, then carefully lift it open. You did it!
