After following y'alls recommendations and watching some YouTube videos, I did it! I pressure cooked a ham bone and then cooked some butterbeans. I feel a lot more confident now that I have used it and have an idea how it works. It's not so different from my old pressure cooker as I thought - high or low pressure, and number of minutes. Easy!

The only thing I don't like about it is the quick release pressure valve. I'm used to being able to pick up the whole pot, put it in the sink, and run cold water over the lid to quickly reduce the pressure with the old school pressure cooker. The IP has to stay in place on the counter and because of how my cabinets are built, they get sprayed with the steam and whatever is in the pot. Fortunately, one of the YouTube videos I watched recommended putting a dish towel over the quick release valve when you open it. I will try that next time.

At least it's safer than opening a hot car radiator.

The ham and beans were delicious, BTW!

I use the dish towel over the valve as well....I have so little kitchen space that I have wet stuff flying everywhere otherwise!

Maybe try some hard boiled eggs first? what’s the worst that can happen.? And its so easy.

I use the 5-5-5 method!

https://www.onehappyhousewife.com/in...d-boiled-eggs/
The 5-5-5 method was too much for the size eggs I get. I usually get "large, grade AA" eggs which are smaller than the extra large and jumbo eggs. I have found 4-4-4 on low pressure works well for me. They're still hard boiled but the yolks don't have a green coating and whites are digestible.

I think it all depends on the size of the eggs.

Lovin' my IP.

Talking Ninja Foodi Crisper

I have been wanting an Instant Pot cooker and an air fryer for a while now but just never got around to getting either of them. So I have been seeing commercials/infomercials for the Ninja Foodi crisper the last couple months and was doing some research on that vs the instant pot. Well today I decided to go for it and I ordered the Ninja foodi. I am excited to have an appliance that does all the instant pot does but crisps/air frys as well. I will post my review after it arrives.

I may be naive about just how many deviled eggs the B-F community eats or how many pot-lucks we get invited to but seems to me that the 1-10-1 method is best ( and no muscle strain lifting an I.P.).

1 min to fill pot with water and put egg (eggs )
10 min to boil
1 min to remove, run under cold water.

1 pot, one soupspoon required.

Our Moms, alive or passed, must be laughing their heads off.

Call me a Luddite but I really don't see the benefit of this technology.

BTW, my tone here is not hostile LOL

I too am a 1-10-1 in the pot egg cooking kinda gal, but it is an art lost to the young folks who think that buying food in a pkg for big bucks and having it delivered so you can eat tiny portions you have to cook is a good thing! All kidding aside, I love the way food cooks and tastes in my insta pot... I have so little space that I need something that can do so many things, and do them quickly.

Bought one of those but found the spray still needs to go someplace so put it in a drawer and just use a towel now.
