![]() Thick or Thin? : This recipe produces a creamy Mac and cheese that is not dry but also not swimming in liquid.It does not make the mac and cheese spicy at all. You want that flavor that it adds to the macaroni and cheese. Hot Sauce : I know lots of recipes say hot sauce is optional, but it’s not in this recipe.Naturally as you add the broth and pasta it will all be covered, but if there are a few pieces sticking out, those are the ones you will need to gently push down on. The only thing you need to do is gently press down on the pasta if it’s sticking out of the liquid. Don’t Stir : Once you add the ingredients into the insert of the Instant Pot do not stir at all.Add handfuls of each, about 1 cup each time, stirring well after each addition until the cheese is melted. Do not add all the cheese at once because it will clump up and have a stringy texture in the pasta. Handfuls of Cheese : Probably the most important tip.Here are my tips that will hopefully make this recipe for macaroni and cheese a success in your own kitchen.

It takes a few minutes and then once the pressure is all released you will be able to take the lid off. It may sputter a bit so stand clear of it. Meaning, switch the valve to the ‘venting’ position when the cook time is done. Quick Release : When done, do a quick release of the pressure.Manually set the cook time for 4 minutes. Cook : Cover with the lid and set the valve to the ‘sealed’ position.Do not stir it, just gently press down on the pasta that needs it. Gently push down on the pasta to make sure that it is all in the broth/liquid. ![]() Except for the shredded cheese and heavy cream.
