Hello all. I've had my eye on an Instant Pot for quite sometime, especially reading here how so many of you are fans of this appliance.
So........... I got one! Specifically, this one:
I purchased this from QVC, but for $50.00 less than the $129.00 shown in this link and, being on a tight budget, used their installment plan to get it home for one sixth the total price. I think it was a good deal.
Anyway, I've had my new toy for three weeks and have yet to cook one thing in it! Go figure😏. I have been reading the Instant Pot topic off and on for years and just had a few questions:
Does anyone have this version? BTW, just in case this link evaporates, the one I have is the Six Quart Instant Pot Viva 9 in 1.
Are the many recipes here for the Instant Pot interchangeable from one version to the next?
Although I mostly cook just for myself, I love making large batches of food and freeze in meal sized portions such as meatballs and sauce, curries, bean soups, large pots of greens, etc. Are there any recipes you all would recommend not making in the Instant Pot and why?
How have you adapted your own recipes from stove top to Instant Pot pressure cooking?
I am sure some of these answers are included in this topic but since it's several years old and on Part Five, I was hoping to get some guidance here.
Thanks!
Forgot to add--not that it makes a bit of difference in cooking--but I ordered it in PURPLE! They call it Eggplant but it's straight up purple!
