Perfect Eggs Every Time with the 5-5-5 Instant Pot Method!

[deepinhart]

@stephen583 exactly! I prefer the 3 qt one to make rice in too..better than my rice maker!

 

[gmcarlson518]

@sleeplesshollow I go 2-7-whatever in my 3 qt.

 

[vernonschaffner]

They peel so easily.

 

[stephen583]

@vernonschaffner they do!

 

[viveroba]

I’ve always done 5-5-5, but the past month the yolks haven’t been fully set. Is it my eggs or the pot getting old?

 

[stephen583]

@viveroba oh hmm. How much water are you putting in?

 

[viveroba]

@stephen583 I cup. In a 6q

 

[stephen583]

@viveroba, you could troubleshoot with different eggs, adding a minute to cook time, or consider a new seal as recommended by Ann.

 

[viveroba]

@stephen583 I’m going to try 6 minutes later. And then swap the ring if that doesn’t work

 

[kennha06]

@viveroba I do 6-6-6

 

[natasreficul]

@viveroba probably your sealing ring. They slowly stretch out over time.

@stephen583 is that what the 5,5,5 method means lol

 

[stephen583]

@ladysea27 yep! 5 cook, 5 relax then release, 5 ice bath.

 

[ladysea27]

@stephen583 I think the ice bath is what threw me makes sense now

 

[ramonaguilar]

I do this too! So good

 

[cbryant5]

Oooooo I like the egg holder!

 

[stephen583]

@cbryant5 Thanks!! Snagged from Amazon.

 

[amigoforchrist]

I use the same method except I just put them in cold water, no ice. They come out great and easy to peel.

 

[stephen583]

@amigoforchrist great to know!!
