What kind of white wine do u cook with please? Would appreciate if u could give me the brand name if possible. Also WHERE do u get ham broth??? Ty and im enjoying ur shows!
As the author of the book you cooked these five recipes from (my name is Jeffrey Eisner), I'm so glad and honored you tried FIVE of my recipes! You did a GREAT job! It's always an honor to have someone use your recipes as a blueprint and then put their own twists on it to make it their own. As for the Thai Basil Fried Rice, I wouldn't have suggested regular basil as that's definitely a more Italian/Mediterranean flavor, but rather fresh tarragon leaves as mentioned in the book - they give a similar flavor to Thai basil with that anise touch which isn't as easy to find. Again, great job!
Becky…I just want to give a personal thank you to you and your channel. I used to cook, bake and even garden a little all the time until a few years ago when I ran into some health problems and couldn’t do those things. I got out of the habit of scratch cooking and the joy it brings. I recently started watching your videos and they have sparked my love of all those things again. I’m even planning out next years garden!! So thank YOU for being you and helping me find that passion again ❤️
Hi Becky, the fried rice recipe calls for Thai basil which has a different flavor profile than Italian. You should try it and maybe grow some next year. It really took off for me & I LOVE the flavor!
I recommend growing Thai basil and Holy basil. Thai basil has a mild licorice taste. Holy basil (tulsi) is also used medicinally, and adds a spicy basil flavor.
I am just a recent subscriber and enjoy your cooking and homesteading,I have watched so many of your videos, I cannot get enough of them. Lol! You are very pleasant to watch and you have such a kind and generous personality ❤
Hello Becky!! I just wanted to let you know (I didn’t know either until this past year) that with sesame oil you want to add it to your dishes towards the end as the flavor greatly diminishes when sautéed under high heat. Hope this helps! ❤ thank you for all you do.
I can’t tell you how much I LOVE your channel!! I’ve been telling my husband for years that we need food in the freezer for nights I don’t want to cook but I never knew what to make and freeze. I’ve made Italian stuffed peppers, honey sesame chicken, fajita bowls, and the smashed chicken. ALL DELICIOUS!! You’ve motivated me to turn my leftovers into new meals and transformed how I think in the kitchen. I have always loved cooking, baking and generally all things kitchen but now I have new motivation and a new outlook!! That’s saying a ton! I can’t get enough of your videos. You are so enjoyable to watch and I love that you open the video with hello friend because you make your audience feel like we are your friends. Thank you for all that you do a thousand times over!!! Also I just put the cookbook from today on hold at my library. I can’t wait to pick it up and get cooking.
Becky. My grandma always made me a bunch of her veggie soup before she would go to Florida for the winter. I recently made it in the instant pot and it was soooo easy. Cook a roast in the instant pot for about an hour on manual with just a few cups of water or broth and salt and pepper. When that finishes pull out the roast and put in 2 to 4 diced potatoes, a diced onion, 3 diced carrots, 1 to 2 can of diced tomatoes, can of peas, 2 cans green beans and a can of corn (I leave all the juice from the veggies. I don't drain any of them) . Season with more salt and peppr and cook on manual for 10-12 minutes. When that is finished add in your shredded roast and serve. So yummy and brings back memories! Hope you enjoy it too! It makes quite a bit but freezes beautifully! She would always freeze a bunch of tubs for me to last all winter!
@@rosemaryus-ct6151 I don't like frozen potatoes either but for some reason this works. I don't freeze any of my veggies except for corn bc of that reason but when they are in this soup and cooked already it reheats just like it was fresh made
@@jonesfamily9119 ok miss jones i would like very much to try it. how big of a pot roast did u use? and u like how it reheats [stew is like soup; it gets better] but ur grandmother froze it and the potatoes were still ok? i may also use all fresh veggies, if u have further advice.
@@jonesfamily9119 uno what it just occurred to me that i can make it and freeze it without the potatoes and just throw some in when i defrost the soup.
@@rosemaryus-ct6151 I usually use a 2-3 lb roast just depends on how much meat you would like in it. The potatoes do hold up really well after being frozen. I dice them as I like small pieces of everything in the soup so you don't notice a texture change. I am sure all fresh veggies would work just as good. You shouldn't need to adjust cooking times either as I do fresh onions, carrots and potatoes when I cook it. Everything else is veggies I have canned except for the corn that I like to freeze. It's not a very specific recipe just add how ever much of each veggie you like. I usually do pi to for everything but the green beans and tomatoes I do a quart. I also do a manual pressure release both times as I am not patient lol. It reheats just as if it was freshly cooked.
I am using the recipes you post and they are so easy and SO yummy. My husband enjoys me watching your posts because he gets to eat the results and loves them!!
Never miss a video. I grew up around farming and my dads a farmer so it warms my heart to learn from the both of you and eventeach my dad a thing or 2 that YOU'VE taught me. Made me want to get into growing my own food. Lots of love from across the pond to you, baby Acre and the lovely Josh. Thank you for all you do for us! ❤
After watching one of your earlier instant pot videos, I purchased one about two weeks ago. I'm in heaven! I studied and studied and made sure I knew how this sucker works, so I wouldn't feel nervous about PRESSURE lolol. I just last night made an impromptu chicken and rice dish, oh yes, in MINUTES, and I just have to say without your encouragement I don't think I'd even have tried. Thanks for all you do to inform and encourage, as well as inspire. You're one of a kind.
For those who do not have an instant pot and are older, use your pressure cooker instead. :) I did not want to miss these delicious recipes she makes, but have the old "instant pot", the pressure cooker. Love these recipes! The chicken and dumplings look amazing!
Becky, I have a suggestion for you: If you're going to divide a recipe for double or triple it, it would be well worth it for you to write (or type up) those measurements before you start cooking. You'd only have to do the math and note the amounts once, and then you would be able to ensure that you're not miscalculating things on the fly. Easier to duplicate it if you want to prepare the dish again without having to try to remember what you did, as well as make any modifications you want.
A dumpling shortcut that works well is to use flour tortillas. Just treat each one as fresh dough rolled out and cut each tortilla into the shapes you desire. It puffs up just like regular dumplings.made by hand.
@james_acres duh!!! Lmao, my comment was in response to the lady saying use tortillas sooooo, I was giving her another option because clearly she dont want to do the SIMPLE task of making dumplings by herself!!! I am a cook sweetheart, I'm from New Orleans, LA, WE COOK FOR OURSELVES ON A VERY HIGH LEVEL, WE'RE FAMOUS FOR OUR FOODS!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I purchased the cookbook after watching your video! I’ve had my instant pot for years and have a number of cookbooks for it but this one is top notch!!! Made beef and barley soup the other day which was fantastic but tonight I made the sausage and shells. Good golly it’s absolutely delicious 😋- we added some red pepper flakes at the end and enjoyed this with crusty Italian bread. Love your channel and enjoy finding new recipes to try.
Throw a towel over the lid when you do a manual pressure release. It prevents you from potentially burning yourself and it keeps the steam/water from going everywhere.
I always add tiny frozen peas to my chicken & dumplings. Just right after you turn the heat off toss in the peas stir & serve. Gives you your veggies. I also add bell peppers.
A quick hint - when you are using the saute function, you can stabilize the inner pot by clipping it to the outer pot with a binder clip. Saves you from burning your fingers! These recipes look fabulous - I have ordered my copy of the cookbook!
FYI. You can roll the dumplings out with a little more flour and leave the extra flour on them when you put them in the pot. It will thicken the the gravy without having to use cornstarch.
Great video! I’ve requested this book from the library to look through to see if it has enough recipes I like before I order it. I love my Instant pots - as long as I’m already in the kitchen, I like to do several things at the same time. A tip my daughter shared with me is to toss a dish towel over the top when doing a quick release, it muffles the sound and reduces the steaminess in an already hot kitchen.
So glad you used this cookbook. I enjoy watching him cook and purchased this book as a result. But admittedly, I have not cooked a single recipe from it. I WILL now! I even bought boursin cheese to do so. I will check date, hopefully it's still good. Thank you!! We always appreciate Josh's input!
I always enjoy watching you cook. I however, do not have the passion for it like you do, I wish I did but I don’t. The beautiful dishes you create although they look delicious, aren’t usually something I’d do because they’re just more involved then I want to commit too. HOWEVER, you have been rocking the quick meal ideas! These are recipes I feel like I can wrap my brain around and have a meal on the table that my husband will appreciate and I didn’t spend huge amounts of time preparing. Maybe one day I’ll be better in the kitchen (doubtful, I’m a grammy) but for now I’ll just live vicariously through you, and I’ll jump in on the wonderful ideas that better suit my time, skill and desire. You’re an amazing young lady who offers encouragement and inspiration to all ages. Thank you.
I have an instant pot that I have not learned to use yet so this is the perfect video at the perfect time. I bought an air fryer in the same sale so I shall live in hope that you get one of those too. 😊❤ Thankyou Becky
I suffer from BPD with major depression. Your videos help me to live a better quality of life. Your voice is so calming, and your personality is very pleasant! 🥰
I don’t know if you like yogurt, but I love Greek yogurt and making it in the instant pot is soooo easy! I just strain it overnight and it gets super thick, almost like cream cheese!
I make yogurt every week with my IP…it’s so easy and the kids love it! After I let it drain overnight to make it thick I use my immersion blender to get it nice and creamy
I was at our cabin following a recipe for my new to me instant pot AND Thank goodness I had previous seen this video cause the recipe I was following was not good but it turned out to be the perfect base for the spaghetti carbonara sans bacon. So all I did was add the pasta, added another 8 minutes, and poured some cream presto change-o it went from epic fail to winner winner chicken dinner. Thanks so much
Becky, you have convinced me that I need to dust off my Instant Pot and use it more! All of those recipes look delicious! Thank you (and Josh) for rating them.
I have Jeffrey Eisner's first cookbook too- he does such a great job! Thank you so much for showing how you cooked these recipes.. I have cooked a few from his cookbook too and they were delicious! I am constantly looking for instant pot video recipes and I really appreciate your method - cooking from a cookbook and how you altered it based on what you had available or your taste preferences- thank you!
When you cook pasta in the instant pot it will be liquidy at first but after a few minutes the pasta absorbs the liquid. I make spaghetti in there all the time.
Becky you truly are send from heaven ,I got a instant pot bought for me from my children two xmases ago and have been weary of using it but wanted to very badly but was nervous ,so I got both books that you have mentioned and I love this ,step by step book as it has great explanations! Thanks to you I can learn from this and feel confident ! Thank you!!!
Yeah, Becky. Almost 500,000 subscribers. You deserve it. I have a file folder for BECKY'S Recipes only. You go, girl! You're awesome, personable & attractive. Josh too I love you guys! Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister
Thank you for putting out this video and spot lighting this cookbook. I just got mine yesterday! I have several Instant Pot cookbooks, and this one is the best by far.
I love this video! I have had an Instant Pot for about 4 years and I haven't even cooked rice in it! Now maybe I will be brave enough to try one of these recipes! Thank you!
Hi Becky! Jeffrey's cookbooks are great. I wish all were set up like them. Also, don't forget that the Instant Pot has 3 different saute temp settings. Low/Med/High. I normally use High
Loved this one Becky!!! And you're so right about the boursan cheese, i love it. I have the ninja 7 in 1 so will definitely be trying some of these recipes ❤
In regards to the soups, when I make soups like this I make the whole recipe or double batch and then put the leftovers in single serving freezer safe containers. Then you can have soup for a quick lunch or dinner! I love these in the winter time.
All your instant pot meals look amazing. One comment - an Italian carbonara does not contain cream and it is the heat of the pasta which cooks the eggs. The Italian carbonara comes together in the same way as you made yours in the instant pot.
Hey kiddo! I have enjoyed so many of your videos on a variety of subjects…you are one of my go-to’s…I have also watched most of Jeffery Eisner’s videos on Instant Pot Cooking from his channel “Pressure Luck Cooking” … I have all of his cookbooks and the one you are using is his best one!! This cookbook is just like talking to him…🥰anyone that can help us be better at anything is a hero in my life so thank you!!! And that you have time for us in your busy life is unbelievable!!!
When I've seen recipes that have the dumplings rolled out and cut like that they call it chicken n slicks in the south. These recipes look great! I feel like I need that cookbook!
I have a brand new instapot I've had for nearly 7 or 8 years and never used it. Until now because I'm going to purchase that book right now and bring out my instapot and start using it as sin as the book arrives. Thank you so much for making these videos for us all. The instapot had always intimated me is why I've never used it. Now that I pressure can I don't think the instapot will be so intimidating anymore. Wish me luck anyways!❤
Coming back to say I ordered this cookbook and so far, I've made the pork ribs, butternut squash risotto and the sausage and spinach soup; the ribs were good, but the risotto and the soup were amazing! The risotto made a huge amount, just fyi. The soup was so good though and I already bought the ingredients to make it again this week; it's enough to share with my brother who had surgery last week and a friend who suffered a great loss last week. Thanks for this great video and resource Becky!
Hi, I’m from Italy and carbonara is one of my favorite dish. The instant pot is a little bit rivisitate from the original recipe but it’s ok😅. In Italy we don’t use Pancetta, we use Guanciale that is more fatty and please don’t use the cream. One Italian die when you use cream in pasta dish 😂. You should try the original Italian recipe because is amazing. Love your videos btw ❤
I saved this video into my recipes videos! I’m so excited to try these recipes, especially the fried rice. I have a rice cooker with a sauté setting, so many of these can be done in a rice cooker also with advanced settings 🎉❤
Becky, I got so excited to see you holding Jeff's first cookbook. I've got them all, and I don't think there's one recipe I've tried and didn't like. My favourite one isn't in this cookbook (it's in a different one) but you can find it on his website, and it's his Chicken Fajita Pasta. I salivate just thinking about this recipe. You and Josh need to try it! There's a YT vid for it, too!
I like that you showed details. I've had an insta pot for a bit, and after I burnt rice I put it away. Never to be seen again!! Might be time to dig it out again and try one more time.
I have all of Jeffrey's books.....the recipes i have tried have all been amazing. Becky I love your channel you have inspired me to start canning and making freezer meals, so thank you.
My favorite easy-peasy drop dumpling is to put a cup of flour in a bowl and mix in one egg with my fingers until I have a crumbly combined mixture somewhat like cooked sausage crumbles in texture sitting in some extra flour. They are kinda like spaetzle. So you take the crumbles out of the flour and drop them into the finished pot of soup and simmer about 15 in. They will thicken the soup as well.
I just found your channel Becky and I’ve watched SO many of your videos! You’ve already inspired me to get 70 lbs of apples and I’ve been making all kinds of yummy things! I never would have tried that this week without your inspiration 😊
Thank you for showing this book and step by step recipes. My friend gave me an instant pot but I've been afraid to use it. Watching you has helped me know I can do it. I just received the cookbook. Now I just have to start. You've helped me have courage. Thanks again!
I have all his books and ordered the new one that will be out, I believe, in September. I saw you had the book on a shelf, so I'm glad you now have tried it. There are so many good recipes. Well, they are all good.
Thanks for running through these recipes. i LOVE Jeffrey's books! The sausage and shells is one of our absolute flavors! I haven't tried any of the other ones you showed but I am absolutely going to try the chicken and dumplings and the bean soup. Thanks Becky!
Wow - I think you tube is reading my mind lol - I have the same cookbook- on my kindle - I was just sitting to watch some instant pot cooking before tackling my recipe “Rigatoni Bolognese “ -and here you’re the first RU-vid recommended- yey - I’ve been binge watching since I came across your channel- thanks
As I keen cook I love new recipes from our fab Becky, it’s a little different to what we normally cook in the uk. Keep up the fab videos Becky. Love to you and your family. X
Becky, so glad you found Jeff's fantastic cookbook. When I purchased my IP a few years ago I also bought his 1st cookbook. It totally gave me confidence to use the IP. I've made all the recipes you made & yes they are all delish. I use my IP all the time & I love it. I have his other cookbooks too. Enjoy! Be well.
Hello Becky, I love your videos. I have a suggestion, 1} use a damp towel under your cutting board to keep them from moving around while cutting on them, 2} place a towel over the top of your instant pot when manual releasing the pressure. Chicken Dumplings are my family favorite winter soup, I never thought about doing it in the Instant pot. I will be trying that very soon.
Love your videos. My family newly follows the Levitical diet from the bible so no pork and shrimp but I'll definitely be making the chicken and dumplings !
I also follow a Levitical diet and just wanted to say you can sub turkey bacon or beef bacon when a recipe calls for pork bacon. If a recipe calls for sausage I’ll sub ground beef or turkey or if it calls for smoked sausage I’ll sub smoked beef sausage or smoked turkey sausage. Hope this helps!
@@ksierra4444You’re very welcome! If you ever need encouragement a few of my favorite Torah resources are Torah Family and 119 Ministries. They both have solid teachings based solely on the Scriptures.
Becky, you may want to get some of the Instant Pot hot mits. They're great when you need to remove items from the pot or stir items because they allow you to hold the pot steady.
Becky, My family calls that dish "Pot Pie" which most people use that term for meat pies. When the dumplings have more flour on them, no slurry needed. You are great as usual. Thanks.
I’m so glad I found you because I really like your cooking videos. I have a instant pot and haven’t really used it for lack of knowledge. I just bought the cookbook just now. I live in LaPorte Texas and it’s so hot that growing vegetables is a little hard. It’s just barely cooling off now. Thanks for all your videos. Blessings ❤ Nidya
Jeff at Pressure Luck is great and so are his books. I have a few! Another couple books that should be on your shelf is Rootitoot. Ruth was a magnificent lady who created a great following of pressure cooking newbies. I highly recommend anyone that has a pressure cooker buy her book/s. Many wonderful easy homemade goodness recipes.
Hi Becky! You have introduced me to the world of Instant Pot ~ so I ordered one, along with this book and another one! I really love the idea of the 30-minute meals and the non fussiness of it all. Thank you and keep on doing what you do!
I’m a newbie to your channel. It was your shorts that pulled me in. Gotta say you speak my language with making everything from scratch. I’ve already got new ideas for meals I hadn’t thought of. Thank you
Becky, his beef stroganoff is the closest to my chef grandfathers recipe I’ve ever found!! We’ve freeze dried many batches and the whole family LOVES it!!
Becky, I have lots of food allergies & would love the recipe for your homemade Plum sauce. Thank you! Ordered the cookbook as it will really help me to use it¬ be so fearful of it. I really like that the recipes are steps&have pictures! I don't comment but truly enjoy your recipes&videos! Thanks again!
