I cooked some this week in the instantpot!

Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

Author: Lisa Johnson


Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • ice
Instructions

  1. Place trivet at the bottom of the inner Instant Pot pan.
  2. Place eggs on top of trivet, stacking evenly if necessary.
  3. Add one cup of water to the pan. Close the lid and set Instant Pot for 5 minutes on Manual at HIGH pressure.
  4. Allow pot to release the pressure naturally for 5 minutes, then very carefully quick release any remaining steam.
  5. Scoop eggs out of pot and place in an ice bath for 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from the ice bath and peel or store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Recipe Notes

  • I used my 6 quart Instant Pot®, and the trivet that comes with it.
  • Place a dish towel over the vent when you release the pressure/steam or you may burn yourself! Gently push on the vent and release the pressure in short bursts.
  • I cooked 12 eggs, but I “believe” that you can cook more using the same exact times above. I will give it a try and report back with the results.
They turned out really well! I cooked mine for 6 minutes. They peeled good for farm fresh. The one cracked in there so it looks funny. Keep the recipes coming Ron!!

I wouldn’t want your job but glad you like it. My husband has taught me respect for semis. All 3 of my guys drive semi at some point in the year. They can’t just stop either...especially with a full load. This accident the semi was empty or things might have been different. He saw her so was only going 40 or so when bus/van blew the yield. I just asked my sister if there were any updates as she follows the caring bridge site and the last update one of the critical had a stroke.
I agree with you completely about the respecting the semis part. My entire family drive semis as well, both sides actually, and I am legal to drive everything except a semi with a fifth wheel. Our grain truck is a semi-converted to a box and I am legal to drive it. The majority of the public do not understand what is required when it comes to driving a semi. Nor do they seem to care, although we know who the loser would be. I believe part of the driver training course should have a section on the large vehicles so people could be educated.

In my case, it was semis meeting me in my lane on a two-lane highway. I believe the first one fell asleep, the second caught himself from the drift and the last was a very unfortunate individual who decided to proceed into my lane to go around a broken down semi instead of stopping behind and waiting when I'd already entered the area. Technically I shouldn't be here. I'm very lucky I had enough ditch to save the day because all times were during winter. The last time it happened, the entire load of students was on and I had the mother of one of the kindergarteners and 3 heavy rig trucks behind me. I'm not usually the type to get misty, and I managed to hold it together until I unloaded those students...but I cried all the way home. It was that close. Someone was lookin' down that day.

Oh no...hopefully it was not a severe stroke. How awful. :(
 
We'll have to experiment and see if she has a preference. I think she just loved joining in with me and the kids dancing and she was in the mood to be silly.

I just went through all my Watched Threads. I now have a page and a half, pruned down from 7 pages! They soon stack up without you realising.

Cap, I hope you can find your little survivor some friends.
Unfortunately with the trip to the post office and back home, i got there late. By 10 am everything was sold except a turkey. Didn't think he would be a good match for her!

Holy cow, you gave me goosebumps! I only remember one bad bus accident while I was in school. Someone hit it and actually tipped it over. It was from my school district at the time. My cousin got hurt but I don’t remember if anyone else did. Thank goodness for bus drivers like you! I agree on the drivers training thing. I just said that to hubby yesterday.

That's too bad Cap. Have you tried your state thread to see if anyone around you has some to sell? How's your little only one doing?
