March 30, 2024 I have been a fan of the 5-5-5 (or even 4-4-4) method for years. However, I will never go back now that I have tried the lo pressure 12 min method. I just hard boiled 36 eggs for Easter tomorrow. I used my 3 qt IP Duo, and my 6 qt IP Duo. This method is so much quicker for me and the quality of the eggs! Well, they are a Big Wow!! Perfect. Beautiful creamy yellow without a hint of a green edge. I followed the directions exactly. Between batches, I rinsed my pots to make sure they were cold, as well as the water. (Okay, I did add a couple more eggs to the later batches than recommended in the recipe. Luckily, those bigger batches turned out perfectly, too.) Thank you, Amy & Jacky.

This is the only way to boil eggs! They cook perfectly and peel so easy. I thought it’s only boiled eggs how different could pressure cooking be. It’s the only way we eat boiled eggs anymore. Try it. You won’t be sorry.

This may be the best recipe I’ve found for farm fresh eggs that doesn’t put me through the hell of peeling them just to toss the broken ones. I made one adjustment since my eggs are a day old at the most, and confirmed via second batch. Same perfectly peeled result, with no gray or green ring around the yolks, and no mushy whites. For those that have farm fresh eggs (extra large size) at room temperature, I still used 8 eggs per batch for 12 at low pressure, but added 3 ice cubes to cold water to still measure at 1 cup. That added enough cooking time to offset the freshness and larger size of the eggs.

The eggs cooked perfectly at 8 minutes. I did a cold water bath as I wasn’t using them until the next day. Four were easier to peel and three were challenging.

12 minutes on low pressure continues to be perfect. By the time the eggs were done I had everything else chopped for egg salad. So awesome. Thanks, Amy and Jacky. I always come here first! Great recipes and tips.

I just tried this with my farm fresh eggs and they came out perfect! Put them in an ice bath and the peel practically fell off!! 🤎

I use this recipe all the time. We like them soft-boiled, and your instructions explaining how and why it works depending on how many eggs etc was so good too. I make them every week.

Hands down the best hard cooked eggs that I have ever had! I have never been disappointed in any Amy and Jacky recipe:)
The care and knowledge that these two put into every recipe makes using an instant pot such a pleasure. Thanks Amy and Jacky.
