For the best results, use eggs that are at least a few days old. If you prefer a slightly softer yolk, reduce the cooking time by 1 minute. Storing the peeled eggs in an airtight container will help to maintain freshness
Achieve perfectly cooked, easy-to-peel hard-boiled eggs every time with this simple Instant Pot method. Say goodbye to chalky yolks and hello to creamy perfection!
Place a wire rack inside the Instant Pot. Pour in 1 cup of water. Gently arrange the eggs on the rack, ensuring they are snug but not overcrowded. (2 minutes)
Secure the lid and set the Instant Pot to High pressure for 4 minutes. Allow the pressure to build naturally. (10-15 minutes)
Once the 4-minute cooking time is up, immediately release the pressure using the quick-release method. (5 minutes)
Carefully transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for 5 minutes before peeling. This will help the shells come off easily. (10 minutes)
Peel the eggs while they are still warm, rinsing off any shell fragments. Enjoy immediately, or store in the refrigerator for later.
