How to cook Pasta in IP

Imagine you’re in the kitchen, armed with an Instant Pot, some dry pasta, water, salt, and a bit of oil. First, turn on the Instant Pot’s “Saute” mode and pour in six cups of water. Drop the pasta into the water, sprinkle a teaspoon of salt for flavor, and add a little oil to keep things from sticking. Now, stop the “Saute” mode and put the lid on the Instant Pot. Switch to “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” mode, setting the time to half of what the pasta package suggests. It’s like a cooking shortcut. Once the Instant Pot does its thing, release the pressure quickly, open the lid, and give the pasta a stir to make sure it’s all perfectly cooked. Get rid of any extra water, and there you have it—delicious, fuss-free pasta ready to be paired with your favorite sauce. #EasyCooking #InstantPotMagic
