Cooking with Frau FEZMAN
- Thread starter THE FEZ MAN
- Start date
I bought an Instapot last year on Amazon Prime day for $60. It sat in the box for months. Then my family was thrown through a loop and I can no longer cook meals that take a long time I have used that pressure cooker for chili, soups, stews, chicken & roasts. 40 minutes and and additional 10 with some taters and veg and I get the absolute best roast I can hope for. I made one this week with Eye Round and in was fork tender.
This has now become the official Instant-Pot(tm) recipe and chicanery thread. I have decreed it so.
Lagolhu ackbar.
Shhhh... Alexa is listening... always listening.
A mega-healthy(yuck!) one to start us off. Ya eat this stew, and you'll live forever, and you won't need to have cancerous tumors burned off your face and peckah every other week.
Note- I used chicken stock instead of water.

The stew turned out lovely. For something that's extremely healthy, it's actually really good. I usually have a hard time getting kale down, but all the bitterness cooked out of the kale, and its texture is nice... like cooked spinach. All the veggies, and the black-eyed peas, cooked perfectly in 30 minutes under pressure.
That recipe is a keeper... for now.
I usually have a hard time getting kale down, but no problem whatsoever getting it out. Goes through my gutttyworks like a bobsled. We shall see if a disaster lurks. I must be on guard and trust no farts for the next day or so.

OH! Good you mentioned it.
Cabbage. Warning... danger.
Cabbage in the Instant Pot... beware. It traps all the nasty cabbage gas in the pot as it cooks, and then it releases it in a concentrated, noxious cloud when you vent the pot. It's enough to knock you over. It's like Franko farting in your face the morning after St. Paddy's day. Potentially lethal.
I highly recommend taking your Instant Pot outdoors to vent when cooking cabbage. You'll be glad ya did! God bless.

Two updates, I bought a “real” instant pot, got it at Costco, I made a stew the other day that turned out poorly, in my old pot stew meat took 30 mins give or take and it came out great, I did 30 mins in the new pot? It turned into some weird gruel textured gloop that had an underlying flavor of plastic, that’s what is kind of strange, I think it’s actually the carrots that gave it that weird taste and the meat wasn’t actually stew meat but flap steak that wasn’t labeled in the freezer, but it was quite unpleasant and I tossed it to the chickens.
The latest batch of kimchi has been jarred up and I will say it’s pretty damn good and probably my best batch yet, it stunk the entire house up. My new secret ingredient
