For Instant Pot:
- For faster cooking of stews and braises, cut your meat into smaller pieces (1-2”) before cooking.
- All soup, stew and braising recipes can be modified to approximately 15-20 mins on HIGH setting, per pound of meat with 1-2 cups of liquid.
- For a nice crust on your meat, do not overcrowd your pan when searing. Sear in batches if you have to.
- Braised meats become more flavorful if allowed to cool in their own juices overnight.
