5 Instant Pot Tips from Shelly
- Start with a simple recipe – beans – meatballs.
- Practice with recipes that do not require saute.
- 3 most important buttons – keep warm/on button, saute, and manual button
- Make sure to flip SEAL button – if not, the instant pot will not come to pressure.
- Can always add MORE seasoning to the dish when complete.
