      Thanks for your suggestions on what accessories to get. Sounds like good advice. The sling and steamer basket sound like good items to start with. Thanks again

        The steamer basket is awesome. Not only for the intended straining, but I’ll put eggs in to hard boil in a snap, and to separate foods like rice and green beans in the same pot.

      I have a question regarding yogurt. Does it make a difference in regards to the thickness of the yogurt if you use whole milk or 2 %? I will be straining it also.

        whole milk does seem to come out thicker. But 2% should be just fine.

      The ads are why this wonderful site is free. A very small price to pay for such wonderful content.

      I plan to make No-6 tomorrow or maybe Tuesday. I will use Smoked Sausage (Mattesons) and I have the Green Beans. Hubbys Delight is on the list to do but plans have a way of slipping. My Christmas dinner plans were eaten today for instance. 🙂

      What accessories do you recommend for someone that does not have much storage space?

        Definitely the OXO silicone sling trivet. It stores nicely right inside your pot and is a must for PIP method cooking.

        The silicone sling, as mentioned, and a steaming basket.
        We use the basket for hard boiling eggs, steaming vegetables, etc.
        We also use smaller vessels we already have for baking in the instant pot.
        We have one of the larger instant pots, which can fit a small brownie pan or bread pan for baking, meat loaf, etc.

    Hi, I’m Karen. I know that dinner time can be less than relaxing. Busy schedules and cranky kids and a hundred other things can lead to weariness when it comes to putting dinner on the table. I can help! I make homemade, family-friendly slow cooker and Instant Pot dinners and share the recipes with you.
