Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ears of corn, husk and silk removed
  • 1 cup water
  • Metal trivet (for Instant Pot)
  • Tongs
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife

Method
 

  1. Place the metal trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot along with 1 cup of water.
  2. Break or cut each cob in half to make 8 pieces.
  3. Stand the cob halves upright on the trivet. Securely place the lid on the Instant Pot, turn the valve to the sealing position, and set the timer to cook for 5 minutes at high pressure.
  4. Once the cooking time is done, quick-release the pressure by flipping the valve to the 'venting' position then remove the lid. Remove each ear of corn using tongs and place it on a serving platter.

Notes

- For the sweetest corn, choose fresh ears that feel firm and have bright green husks.
- If your corn is exceptionally fresh and tender, you can reduce the high-pressure cooking time to 3-4 minutes to prevent overcooking.
- To store leftover Instant Pot corn, let it cool completely, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
