I is the ingredients are layered in jar. You loose me when you say and to the instant pot and 6 cups
Both and stir. If you add liquid to jars how does it come to pressure. If you empty the jars into the pot what a wasted step. Or is something not listed in the instructions. I have cooked many years and even used pressure cooker for many of these years. These instructions do not make sense to me.
I love me black eye peas….
Especially on a bed of hot rice with some fresh chopped onion!
I like to season mine with ham hocks or a leftover ham bone!
Delicious!!!
Made these for new years 2021. First time using Instant Pot used this as a guid for cook time. Worked perfectly. Black eyed peas are perfectly cooked. Thanks.
Be nice if somebody ever responded to our comments/questions. Because I don’t understand the whole jar thing either.
The recipe is from “Meals in a Jar Cookbook by Pamela Ellgen”, hence the jar. The jars are normally prepared and give as a gift. Along with a recipe (starting with 2. Place jarred ingredients. . . )
Cheers
Oh, wait. I get it. The jars are for if you want to mix up batches of the dry ingredients ahead of time and store them until you are ready for them. Cool idea!
Don’t forget in your planning to add in the time it takes your InstantPot to warm up and release pressure.
Just made this for New Years 2022. Delicious, nutritious, and just what my body and spirit wanted. In place of the dried onion, garlic, celery, and thyme, I substituted fresh.
