Directions to Stop Sticky Pasta In The Instant Pot
If you can’t tell from previous posts, I love the Instant Pot. It is really nice to just start something and walk away. But whenever I make alfredo pasta, I tend to get large clumps of them stuck together
So, I started experimenting. First put a little oil on the pasta and shake it around to get everything coated.
And once again, the secret weapon: An electric kettle. Get some boiling water. You could also use your Instant Pot to heat up some water, and you’d probably get the same results. But that would take longer to get the water boiling and defeats the purpose of speed.
Pour the hot water over your pasta!
Give everything a good stir for a hot minute. We are mimicking putting pasta into hot water. This gives the noodles a slight cooking and they won’t clump.
Here are the results. Much better!
Until next time,
