Pressure Cooker Ham Bone Soup

[Jason TQ]

So have given the new instant pot a few whirls since I got it on Christmas and it is nice having a pressure cooker again. I haven't really used any of the set features as most recipes I've made have called for manual running similar to the last pressure cooker I had. But the 8qt capacity is awesome.

Making some ham bone soup tonight. Snagged the first recipe that looked good and as normal I didn't follow it completely. But this is the one I started with.

Saute'd the veggies on the stove as I doubled the recipe and the saute feature isn't great (which I knew it wasn't). Easy enough for me on the stove so not a problem.

Better than bouillion stock and added beans and the ham bone. Its a little full so we'll see how it does :becky:

Love beans in the instant pot. Sucks to be on a low carb diet. I never use the pre programmed buttons, they normally aren't right anyway. The saute feature is pretty good for beans. After they are done, take the lid off, and turn on saute to reduce the broth down, into that thick bean juice, that you won't get, with just pressure cooking.

This has a lot of promise! One of my faves.

Pretty damn good. Eating some tonight and the rest to our friends tomorrow. The hoisin is really good in it.

That looks great! We snagged the bone from the ham I cooked at my parents house to make split pea soup. I may have to try it in the IP!

#I too have a ham bone waiting to meet up with some split peas. I like the sound of Hoisin in a bean soup.

I was borderline between this recipe and a split pea version. The bone was so big I had to cut it in two and in hindsight should have done 2 soups, but I was maybe having cocktails today and didn't think so smart :crazy:

Looks very tasty. The instant pot really works great. If you haven't made a cheesecake with it, your missing out.

I might have access to a person that makes them pretty good already :-D

Love a good ham soup, that looks delicious. I have a recipe I've fine tuned, it's a cream of ham, cheddar, and potato.

Next time I'll try a recipe that has potato in it. Was going to do either potatoes or beans
