Great episode!! FYI if you cut the spaghetti squash across the short way the strands are longer! The strands grow around the circle of the gourd...I just learned this 2 weeks ago!
As no cookbook came with my Instant Pot I really appreciate video clips like this that demonstrate BASIC recipes with common vegetables. Thank you. I was wondering if you were going to cover removing the choke from the artichoke.
Hi Lisa! My sister just sent me a 6Qt IP. I am in Manila, she’s in California. I tried your Hard Boiled Eggs and wow, am so impressed! They came out perfect. 2 minutes on manual high pressure and 15 minutes of natural release. 😘
Still a newbie. I found cooking baby carrots, a russet potato, and a sweet potato easy. Cooked them in 1 cup of chicken bouillon, salt and pepper. Delicious! I have watched a bunch of your videos to become less intimidated. You are a great coach!
Thanks for this video. I’m cooking a spaghetti squash for the first time and didn’t know how to go about it. I like how I can just toss it in with out cutting first 😀 I hope I’m successful lol
Omg. I thought I was given a spaghetti squash and cooked it in the instant pot. It was a mellon, it came out soft and favorable! 😅😅 After cutting open and finding out, I put it in the fridge to enjoy cold. 😋 Your spaghetti squash recipe worked great on this mellon. Thought you'd like to know 😊
I’ve been cooking artichokes for years (way before instant pot) and I’m so glad to see you post this. I often think people don’t know much about raw artichokes….I actually created an steaming artichoke photo album to show folks. I put Mozzarella in between my leaves or Italian Blen shredded cheese. My hubby calls them Violation Fruit! LOL!
Two things about cauliflower, put the cut stem in the basket as well, it is good. Two, after spreading the leaves, put a little "ham dressing" stuffing mix in each leaf as possible. Don't know the timing change but, streamed they are amazing. Oops, a third thing, you didn't mention the artichoke heart, that makes scraping food off the leaf so worth it.
HAHA, I love when you refer to the artichoke as "violent" when snipping the outer leaves. That chuckle I got made me subscribe. So far, I really like your stuff.
Just got a IP Duo Nova and learning on the fly. Your videos have become my go to tutorials. I purchased a steamer basket and some Thermoworks spatulas and silicone trivets. Thank you Lisa!
I recently tried one of your recipes , teriaki chicken and rice and it was easy and delish. This will definitely be a regular for me. I was able to use my new three quart IP.
Great idea in instant pot... we would stuff them with season breadcrumbs olive oil on top. Pull back the leaves & drop breadcrumbs close to bottom of each leaf.
I didn’t like the spaghetti squash in place of pasta, I need to try half and half like you do for your kids and see if I like it better. We call it call-ee-flower where I live in eastern Canada. I’ve never heard it without the “ee” before this video!
Sorry if this is a silly question; I'm very much a beginner with the Instant Pot, but is it ok to add any seasonings to the veggies before they are steamed? For example I love potatoes with a little bit of olive oil/salt/pepper on the skin, but not sure if that would have to be done after instead with this method.
New subscriber here. Love all these vegetables that you cooked. Did the basket that you cook the artichoke with in the InstaPot came with it or did you buy it seperately? Thanks in advance!
I've had an instant over a year unused. I'm scared to use it. I found an airfryer lid for half price so I'm excited to learn to use. Found your accessories video and am looking to start with some confidence from you. I will watch your instructions videos and I'm here for inspiration today since I'm vegetarian. My desire is probably impossible... 🌟❓❓Any chance for Instapot cooking for a single?. Veggie preferred.
After you open up your artichoke, add minced garlic and some olive oil. You can also make stuffed artichokes. In a bowl, mix minced garlic, olive oil and Italian seasoned breadcrumbs. Stuff the mixture in between the artichoke leaves. Cook and enjoy!
I remember I tried steamed artichoke for the first time and thought you had to eat the whole leaf lol. I remember thinking to myself what all the hype is about lol. My mom came back shortly from the restroom and corrected me on how to eat them.
The skin on potatoes are sooooo good and nutritious for you though! They aren’t offensive at all to eat, so I don’t get why you’d not eat the potato’s jacket.
I’m English and we are known for being fussy about pronunciation but I literally cannot hear the difference when you say cauliflower and when you say cauliflower. They are both fine. Tell him he is lucky to be your husband and stop complaining 😂
Don't discard the center, the seeds! Toss it in your compost and you'll get way better soil! (or if you toss them BEFORE cooking, you'll sprout them and you'll get more squash in a few months! Do you know that the so-called baby carrots aren't? All they are is irregular carrots that they cut and tumble to soften the edges ad sell as such. (You know, the carrots that come out of the soil deformed or look like mom and child?)
I have lived in 3 major states and multiple cities and never heard anyone say "cau-lih-flower" - it’s cali-ee-flower. Your husband must be used to a regional pronunciation.
