Perfect Instant Pot Hard-Boiled Eggs
Ingredients
4-12 eggs
1-2 c water
1-2 L water for chilling the hard-boiled eggs in a water bath
Instructions
- Put the triffet in the Instant Pot and add 1-2 cups of water.
- For older models, press the manual button and enter 8 minutes at high pressure. Newer models have an "Egg" button; modify the time to 8 minutes.
- Put lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is sealed.
- Allow the Instant Pot to come up to temperature and pressure and begin the 8-minute countdown.
- After 8 minutes, release the pressure and carefully move the eggs to the water bath. I recommend not handling the eggs with your hands; use tongs or silicon gloves that resist heat.
- Once the eggs have chilled for 5 minutes, you can shell them in the water for easy shell removal.
Notes
Using pressure to make hard-boiled eggs will result in some broken shells. So, if you use this process to color Easter eggs, you will be disappointed.
