Thank you. I am a 51 year old man who loves to cook, but I have not ever used the instant pot. My wife was gone today and I decided to try it, but could not figure out the buttons. I watched this video and it was so simple. The chicken is cooking in it now and the kids should be fed soon. Now I have all kinds of ideas for how to use it. Thank you for the simple explanation.

C pop Q
Love this!!
Wow! Most men wouldn’t bother. Your wife is a lucky lady! 😊 👍
Never say old
@@mik20241 kind of an unnecessary comment but it is true i guess. Fellow man who cooks here
I went to my local thrift store to find a rice cooker. I found a good one, but the gal who runs the shop showed me this brand new, in the box, instant pot pressure cooker that she just got in. She showed me all the cool stuff I could do with it, compared to the rice cooker, and she recommended your channel for directions and recipes.... I went ahead and got the instant pot, now here I am.
Hi👋
Rice cooks really nice in a instant pot
Best teacher Award!
As a visual learner, I’m so grateful for this video! I’m an experienced cook but have always been afraid of pressure cookers. But I’m facing my fears in order to make my own beans and save money/sodium.
The same here.....I got my visual learning style from my dad. Can't much follow written directions since they become a jumble in my mind.
You are SUCH a good teacher, I was going to ask if you are a teacher by training -- then I saw you have 244K subscribers, so you are clearly teaching full time I assume :)
Exactly! As an ex-English teacher myself, I noticed how clearly she speaks, etc.
Yesterday I made eggs(2 minute profile!) in my Duo Nova. I set it and came back 5 minutes later. Steam was coming out around the lid, and then it occurred to me that I had left the sealing ring in the dishwasher. I ended up running the pot dry, again without thinking. Eggs came out fine somehow, but dont be me. Always check the sealing ring is in place. Always!
I left the seal off one time too, but was cooking soup, so nothing burned... But it leaked all over!
I absolutely love you, lady. No joke, I got one of these for Christmas a couple years ago and it barely made it out of the box before it was back in, the buttons, lid, it was all too overwhelming. I have never used a pressure cooker before, always just used my trust crockpot but I don't have it anymore. Also, I low key was afraid I would set it wrong and it would explode, and blow a hole in my kitchen. (LOL) Anyway, I was going to re-gift this or trade it for something I could comprehend, lol. That was, till I watched this. I am going to pull my pot out tonight and try making some chicken breast. I think I can handle it now, so THANK YOU for this!!!!!
My daughter bought me one a few years back for Christmas. After ripping off the wrapping paper. She said be very careful, you could get seriously burned. I put the box away. Today I am going to try it, thanks to your video's.
Its 95 degrees out in October October..Didn't want to cook. Now I can.
Thank you. I was confused and overwhelmed using the Instant Pot. You clarified a lot of things.
Thanks! I use 10 qt. I learned to make spaghetti with meat sauce in my insta pot. My son is Autistic has only a few foods he can eat. For a large batch of spaghetti, I upgrade to the 10 qt, because of the amount of liquid I need to cover the "cooked" ground beef, spaghetti noodles and marina sauce, without going over the max line. I also use the large one for the same reasons for NOLA red beans and rice with ham bones. He doesn't like the red beans and rice, but I make it occasionally for my friends and family. But I do use it every Sunday to easily make a large batch of spaghetti for the week for him. I just found your videos, and thanks for explaining the buttons!
Anyone else love the way she says the word "buttons"? ❤
Yes!!!!! Love it 😍
You are a wonderfully accomplished and engaging presenter. As a Senior of a certain age I have finally managed to get around to buying an IP, following my son's example. This is the video where I 'found' you, just last night, and I am looking forward to many hours of browsing both the tips and the recipes. It's wonderful that you have provided a series of Recipes that are intro level. And you are the only one I have come across to emphasize the importance of NOT transporting the pot by the handle - filled, empty or otherwise! Cheers.
Thank you for making the Istant pot make sense! I’ve read manual, watched other videos and got more confused, now I’m looking forward to finally using my pot I bought a year ago!
Oh my goodness thank you for this!!!! Our little 6qt beauty has been sitting in the pantry for a year! I love the thoughtful and thorough explanations.
I just used my new Instant Pot DUO two nights ago. The starting instructions included w/ the IPD really don't explain very well how to use it. I made some chicken, and had issues with understanding the display and how the IPD operates. THANK YOU for making this very informative video, it answered all my questions.
I took delivery of mine yesterday. I've had a stove-top WMF (I live in Germany) pressure cooker for over 10 years, but I hate having to hang around the cooker to keep an eye on it. It's also - now - far too big for me (I think 5-6 litre capacity and all of my birds have flown the nest so it's just me now 😁. I'm 62 and provide a hot lunch (with a colleague) on weekdays for ca. 140 x 6-10 year old schoolkids. I lose interest every now and again in cooking for myself but my mum (83, widow since May this year) LOVES cooking and is always sending me youtube links :) She recommended some videos, which I watched, and then I found you and I thought I might give this a go. I have the small instant pot, which is more than enough for me, and I'm looking forward to making the most of it :)
Oh my. This is a must watch video for all beginner. The Instant Pot is so scary until it isn't after watching this video.
7/11/23: This video was extremely informative (I saw your "what not to do" video as well) and I took good written and mental notes. I'm waiting for my delivery person to bring my 8 qt. IP to me today and I'm so excited. I've done my homework between what you've shared and others I've watched over the past 2 weeks, so I'm ready to tackle this monster of a machine. Thank you for your expertise in carving the way for those of us who are new to this product. I hope to become as knowledgeable over time so that I can whip out a meal whenever I need to safely. 😃
My mom got the instant pot cooker for me for my birthday ever since I started cooking for me or for my boyfriend. These videos have been very helpful with me understanding more on my instant pot. Thank you for making these videos!
This is literally EXACTLY me. Got my instant pot in late 2021, and never used it. Finally plucked up the courage to take it out, clean all the dust off, and started looking at youtube tutorials. And I found this video!
Thank you so much!! I am brand new to pressure cooking and received my new Instant Pot Duo+ a week ago and have been resistant to try. I now feel a little more confident and ready to have a go!!
Thank you!
_This video was made for me! I bought the 8qtr and it has been sitting there for 2 yrs now! Still in its box lol_
Seek Facts Not Fiction: Same here. An 8 qt. Xmas gift 2 years ago. Realized I was afraid to use it. Took it out of the box, looked at it, then put it back in the box to sit on a shelf (lol.)
Thank you for being SO articulate and thorough! Your videos are a pleasure to watch and VERY informative! I no longer hate dragging my instant pot out of the cupboard!
😂🎉🎉🎉
Yep! I bought my IP 10 months ago. And then talked myself out of using it because it would be too difficult, complicated and dangerous. Tonight I finally got over my self-induced fear and cooked quinoa in it. It was great! Lentil soup will be next!
You’re a wonderful teacher. Thank you.
Best ever, glad I wrote your site down. You make more sense that 100 of those ladies who really try to make sense , and then it's the next day, and you still are confused. Awesome. Thank you. From a single guy.
Thank you for introducing me to the Instant pot. Also, you are an excellent instructor and it is so refreshing to hear someone who doesn’t drop or silence the t in words like button and important.
You might want to consider buying the latest lid as I bought the 8 quart Duo and it is a seal/vent switch that automatically always switches it to seal every time you put the lid on, not simply turning the knob to seal or vent. I'm only suggesting this because some people might be very confused that you're using the old model lid where they have a switch
I just bought one with that feature and can't find a review anywhere that goes over that new feature or the new seal/vent sliding button. I have the 7 in 1 duo and just got it at Target
Oh thanks, I was struggling with the pressure buttons , and then I looked up mine , and noticed it seal’s automatically when you close lid !! So I almost burned myself good tip
Excellent video. Now I can use my Instant Pot after being stored in the cabinet for 2 months ❤
Thank you
This is the best, informative, descriptive video I've ever watched. Thank you so much. I'm bling and this gal helps me in my life!!
This video was amazing! I feel so prepared now. Thank you!!!
I've been using a Drew & Cole pressure cooker 4.8l for a while now, best thing since the invention of the Air Fryer. But had to upgrade recently as needed more capacity & decided on the Instant Pot Pro 8L capacity. First thing I noticed that started to infuriate me is the Burn error. Nothing was burning, it was due to the source in what I was cooking being too thick, but I couldn't water it down as it would spoil the sauce. For weeks it was doing my head in to the point I was tempted to give it away & go back to my tried & trusted Drew & Cole. But then I noticed something I hadn't before, a Low & High setting. I assumed it was for heat, but it was in fact for the pressure. Low pressure takes longer, High pressure cooks faster. Since setting it to Low on foods that normally result in Burn error before it starts to cook, I've not had this problem.
It takes a bit of getting used to, working out how sensitive it is for each type of foods I cook but once you crack it, it works amazingly well. I just wish they fix the Burn error because it's caused when the device gets too hot, usually indicating that something has started to burn, but it's an incorrect error I think they should fix with newer models because it's way too sensitive. What I cook in my Drew & Cole without issue, gives me Burn error with Instant Pot, and I can't help but wonder how many people have avoided this or returned it because of it. Fix this, it's an outstanding product.
Thank you so much. I have been looking for a video like this for so long. I'll get it out of the box again and try using it. 🥰
Thank you, I've had my instant pot for a while now, but never really knew how to use it, too many buttons, now I know it's not so scary, thanks for putting it so simple to understand :)
Really great introduction. I just bought a Pressure cooker and was a little hesitant. You covered all the facets other people's videos glossed over. Thank you for being so detailed.
Just made my first Instant Pot meal last night and my wife LOVED it! Simple chicken and rice but it was so delicious. Thanks for all the advice!
Thank you so much!!! I just got an Instant Pot 3 Qts (finally). Your this video explains >90% of my questions already, instead of my having to read the manual - which I think is the reason for a lot of people having Instant Pots but not using them, some at all (because they do not know really how to use them and they do not want to read the manual either).
New subscriber here! I finally bought an instapot at the urging of my instapot guru neighbors. I am SO glad I found you because 1) You're a great teacher! Clear, easy to understand instruction (perfect for me, because the remanufactured pot I bought came without a recipe book) 2) I am single and I love your video I watched on cooking for one. 3) You wrote an instapot cookbook that Im totally gonna buy! Finally, this is random as it comes, but I gotta say your personality and look reminds me so much of my FAVORITE singer on the planet, Morissette Amon. So glad I found your channel
I love your channel! Thank you for making it easy for me not to be intimidated by my Instant pot!💕
Hi. I love your video. Just an opinion... it would be nice if you have this video in CC Spanish, so people who speak Spanish learn how to use the pressure cooker. I love mine but I have some friends that are afraid to use it because they don't understand all the buttons and tricks. Thank you
Best 101 video I have watched. You explained so much! Thank you!
I've got an Instant Pot Viva that I bought on clearance at my local Canadian Tire for $110, from $180 original retail price. I looked at the date code, and it was manufactured in 2019. It automatically sets itself to sealed when I put on the lid, and I push a button to release the steam. It also has an awesome sauté temperature. Like, I can brown meat so well in it! I sometimes have to turn it back because it will burn at the More setting if I'm leaving the food to brown without stirring. It's definitely comparable to my stovetop settings.
You are so good at explaining how it works! Thank you so much!
Wonderfully helpful and delightfully presented, as always. Thanks so much Lisa. 💖😉👍
One of our local Churches host an "All the Congregation Dinner" at least once each month, and their kitchen uses 4 of those Giant Size "Instant Pots"!
I just discovered your channel. Thank you for all the tips. I’m in love with my instantpot again!!!
Literally the best video I’ve seen on this thank you so much🎉
Thank you for all the information, I’m still getting used to using mine so I appreciate all the tips and tricks♥️

Thank you Lisa for this awesome vid. 👏👏👏
I just got the duo 6 qt and your great vids help me a lot. Already tried it with pea and meat soup came out amazing. And just learned that the saute feature has several levels.
Thanks again and keep on the good work.
One year later still going strong. Thanks very much. New sub here. Looking forward to your other videos.

I have an instant pot and I use it. Not all the time but use it now and then. I love the instant pot . I have a crock pot I use and a Dutch oven so I try to use them all during the month. Never had an electric pressure cooker till I was in my 50’s. Love my instant pot!
I love getting ideas and new recipes . So helpful.
My mom had the pressure cooker you use on the stove that you put a knob on and it rocks.
TFS.
I live by myself and have the 3qt instant pot. It’s the perfect size. I have your cookbook, “I Love my instant pot” cooking for one. I’ve made several recipes and they’ve been so good :)
I have a 3 quart as well it sure comes in handy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I just got my instant pot, and will be cooking for one mostly.. I will have to check out her book.
I love my instant pot and I'm here because I am a subscriber and you have helped me make everything I make..I enjoy watching your videos, even though I already knew the things in this video.
Wow the best video I’ve ever seen with so detailed and clear explanation great for beginner.
THANK YOU-- this is GENIUS-- no one else has thought to even mention HOW to use this blooming thing!!! ha. I've never cooked and I have one of these and an air fryer and am learning things to cook that i NEED to be eating and are healthy-- and how to cook it QUICKLY and so it's GOOD-- My cooking before these tools was not good-- last time there were buzzards circling overhead!! ha.

This is the best instapot video i have ever watched, so informative and clear speaking thank you
Thank you so much for this video. I got one as a present and didn't know how to use it or even what to to cook in it, but now I know . Thank you
Lisa, I love all of your videos!!! Thank you for giving me the inspiration to start using my Instant Pot!! I do have a question. Do you ever think about making another cookbook? One with the recipes you share that you make for your family? It is just my hubby and me at home now, but trying to make recipes for one isn't very effective for us. So just checking if you have another one that you may be working on for families? Happy Holidays!!
I am a newbie! Enjoying your tutorials! So I can learn what the heck I am doing! Thank you
Informative & fun video! Thanks for posting!
Great instructional video for new users. I still have my old stovetop pressure cookers but am seriously thinking about getting an instant pot instead.
Very, very thorough explanation!! Thank you
Your channel is the best! I just got an Instant pot for Christmas and thought how am I going to do this….then I found you! Thank you!, ❤
excellent video!! thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! Mine has been waiting for me to learn it for a couple of months, but I've been doing along with you. Shutting off the sound is sooooo wonderful! Black beans after water test right now!
Thank you, I got my 3 qt yesterday and I've already cooked broccoli, red cabbage and brown basmati rice.
Thank you for this video it helped me a lot!
Great video! You are an excellent teacher!
I just got my instant pot three days ago, still in the box. I am glad to come across your video.
Thank you for this detailed video. ❤❤
I LOVE that you are so descriptive! :)
wow. that was fabulous!! all good nfo but just the 'how to get the lid on the pot" trick was so meaningful to me. i always struggle with that!! thank you thank you thank you!
To start with my pressure cooker, I bought the McCormick Instant Pot seasoning packets. I am making as I write this their Fall Off The Bone ribs. So easy and so very good. The Instant Pot app is really good as well. This thing is amazing. After work so darn quick and simple and such a good meal. Love your videos, very helpful. Watched the video re accessories and really appreciated your tips. Thanks!
Just got my first instanpot.. Thank you so much for this great tutorial:)
Very good information. Thank you so very much.
PS You are so well spoken you are a pleasure to listen to. Thanks again!
