Directions: |
Directions:Melt Sugar in Milk: Add 4 tbsp (52g) 5tbsp (65g) granulated sugar, a pinch of salt, and 1 cup (250ml) whole milk in the pressure cooker. Melt the sugar by using the Slow Cook function on the Instant Pot or low heat on a stovetop pressure cooker. Stir with a silicone spatula until sugar is fully melted. Remove the pot from heat and let the milk cool down a little. Pour in ½ cup (125 ml) whole milk. Mix well. The sweet milk mixture should be cool to touch at this point.
Beat Eggs: In a large glass measuring cup, whisk 3 large eggs until well blended.
Combine Ingredients: While whisking, slowly pour the sweet milk mixture in the large glass measuring cup. Mix well.
Strain Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture through a fine mesh strainer twice to filter any solids in the mixture and make it smooth. Pour filtered egg mixture into 4 5 (3 inches x 1.5 inch) ramekins. Remove any air bubbles with a spoon. Wrap the ramekins really tight with aluminum foil.
Pressure Cook Egg Custard: Have a quick rinse of the inner pot with water. Pour 1 cup (250ml) of cold water in the pressure cooker. Place a trivet in the Instant Pot, then carefully place the 4 5 ramekins on the trivet. You can stack them in two layers. Close the lid and cook at Low Pressure for 0 minute (1 minute if you are not at sea level or the aluminum foil is thick) + 10 minutes Natural Release. The floating valve (metal pin) will drop at around the 7 8 minutes mark. Dont open the lid until the full 10 minutes is over. Open the lid carefully. Set aside to avoid overcooking.
Serve Warm or Hot: This dessert is best served warm or hot. |
