An Alternative Way of Cooking Instant Pot-Hakka Noodles | Pressure Cooker vs. Sautéing Method
The pressure cooker is a great kitchen appliance for busy professionals. It’s a convenient and quick way to cook your food. The Instant Pot has been getting more popular recently because it is one of the most versatile pressure cooking brands.
The Instant Pot has two ways of cooking noodles, the sautéing method and the pressure cooker method. The sautéing method involves boiling water in a pot, then adding noodles to the boiling water and cooking them for 5 minutes or until they are cooked through. The pressure cooker is similar to this but it cooks them in 2-3 minutes instead of 5-7 minutes.
Both methods are great but there are some differences between them that you should consider before deciding which one you want to use for your recipe.
