Oops! I should have watched this video before I cooked my broccoli in the instant pot…LOL!!! Oh well, lessons learned (the hard way…LOL!). Thanks for sharing! ~watching from Norfolk, Virginia~
You need to equalize your music with the volume of your speech! I am sure the music just woke my neighbors across the hall, thanks!
Thank you for the tip. Much appreciated.
Thank You!! All my broccoli has come out so mushyyyy!!
Will the results be different if you use the Steam function instead?
Starting 2020 deaf. Broccoli came out good though
I hate my Instant Pot. I wish I could sell the POS.
so you DON'T even need to add water?
Just curious. What's the purpose for the Steam button on the IP if you use Manual to steam?
You forgot to tell people to put water inside the pot, otherwise, you'll get a message saying "burn"
Damn I already cut up my broccoli lol
False. You absolutely CAN cook broccoli florets in the IP. Set to ZERO minutes and quick release. The texture will be perfect. I do it all the time. As a matter of fact, I’m making some now. Also, a lot of the newer IP models have a steam function. You can always leave the vent open too.
Thanks for this i wasn't sure y mine was mushy but i used that bagged Broccoli that says u can't steam in microwave.. not best choice
Music is way too loud.
Excellent idea. Thanks for sharing!
I subscribed! Thanks ! I’ll check out your 365 days too!
Your supposed to use tongs to turn the pressure valve so you don’t get burned. Safety 101
I followed the instructions exactly with my 6 qt INSTANTPOT DUO and a similar size piece of broccoli was still really hard
I don't have a fakebook but I just found your channel here. 👍
That broccoli is still raw
Crap,I already chopped my broccoli into florets. LOL. I'm going to give it a shot anyway. Thanks. Have a great weekend!
It looks mushy.
GAME CHANGER. I tried this tonight. Holy carp. Thank you so much for this video.
CAN YOU MAKE THE INTRO MUSIC ANY LOUDER?
I don't have an instapot but what is the advantage of using an instapot for veg vise steaming on a stove?
I do it this way but I used the Steam setting and it took more than 10 minutes on venting before I could open the pot. My veg was mushy. Do you know why this happens
My broccoli turned out great but how long cooking time if I wanted to cook cauliflower and carrots at the same time being without mushy
Instructions don’t start until 1:25
Did I miss something? I didn't see you put water into the instapot before steaming.
Thanks Karen! I have an 8qt Gourmia so I'm hoping I get the same result.
OHhh. Shoot. I watched another video before yours, and she cut it up. But it turned out good…
Hi im new to the instant pot and you dont mention how long it take for the actual broccoli to cook. I know its 0 min but how long does it take to “build pressure” ?
In the spring I make a variety of "steamed" veggies. Broccoli, cut up little red potatoes, onion, celery, cut up zucchini, cut up squash, etc. I cut it all up and steam in a big pot in a colander. How would I adapt that to the IP?
hey Karen i have a quick pot can i follow the same format to cook
She is hawt!
🥦🥦🥦 Thank you!!! 🥦🥦🥦
Hi Karen
Here's hoping that you and your family had a wonderful Christmas!
We had unexpected company over the holidays…… He finally found a store opened as I asked him to bring me some broccoli: I asked him to bring me a broccoli head ; he just found bits and pieces SO we became creative and tied them together with dental floss! It was amazing it WORKED!
Just wondering will this method work for cauliflower?
Thanks for all your great tips
If it is frozen in pieces could you use the steamer basket?
Thanks for this video! I gave up on broccoli in the InstaPot after a few failed attempts. Now I know what to do.
Hi Karen
I did a BIG OPS to my Instant Pot. i needed to cook a bib pot of potatoes in my IP! I needed to leave the kitchen for just a moment; when I returned I realized something was wrong. Something had stuck to the bottom of the IP a piece of the potato pealing to the bottom of the pot ug! Now I have a burnt have a burnt piece on the element . Any suggestion on how to remove it?
You clever girl! You get I subscribed! I'm doing Keto so I eat lots of veg. This will be a great help! Happy holidays! Linda
I've used the steam function for 0 min when I've cut up the broccoli 🥦 but I'm going to try your way next time to see if it stays a bit more firm. Just an FYI for those who don't know – if you hit the manual button twice and then set your time, the IP will not go into warming mode when it's done cooking.
Thanks
