Instant Pot takes advantage of pressure cooking, which cooks flavorful meal, softens the food and retains vitamins/minerals.  Thanks to its micro-processor controlled cooking cycles, meals are made in a consistent fashion.

Trapping Flavor in Food

Instant Pot cooks meals in a fully sealed environment. Nutrients and aroma stay in the ingredients instead of being dispersing around the home.  The original juice of fish,  meat (e.g. chicken), and  fruits remains within the food.

Retaining Vitamins and Minerals

When steaming with Instant Pot, you don’t need to put large amount of water. Enough water to keep the pressure cooker filled with steam is sufficient. Because of this, vitamins and minerals are not leached or dissolved away by water. Since steam surrounds the food, foods are not oxidized by air exposure at heat, so asparagus, broccoli, and so on retain their bright green colors and phytochemicals.

Tender & Tasty Meal

Meat and bones can be cooked really tender in Instant Pot.  After cooking in Instant Pot, the bones pork ribs are completed separated from the meat and become chewable, allowing calcium and other minerals to be easily absorbed.

Under pressure cooking, whole grain and bean based meals are also softer texture and taste better than cooked in other methods.

Consistent Results

Another important features is that Instant Pot cooks meals with remarkable consistence. During pressure cooking, heat is very evenly, deeply, and quickly distributed. The Instant Pot’s intelligent programming ensures cooking being consistent regardless the volume of water and the amount of food. This is an unmatched advantage with programmable electric pressure cookers.
