Home cooks all around the world adore the Instant Pot for preparing large chunks of meat, chilli, dried beans, and other foods that would usually take many hours to prepare.
Ingredients with a short cook time to begin with (think: cauliflower, broccoli, asparagus, and green beans; proteins like shrimp and small pieces of chicken; and quick-cooking grains like quinoa or dried ramen noodles) can cook in the Instant Pot in as little as one minute. That’s because the Instant Pot cooks your food as it builds pressure and releases it, so the “cook time” is only a fraction of the overall time it takes to cook your food.
