• Place the steam basket or trivet rack on the bottom of the Instant Pot liner. 
• Pour 1 cup of water into the Instant Pot liner. 
• Place as many eggs as desired on top of the trivet rack (or steamer basket). Cook as many or as few eggs as desired (see note below). The water will not touch the eggs. 
• Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and set the steam valve on top of the lid to Sealing.
• Before you cook the eggs, decide on your yolk preference: hard, soft, slightly jammy/slightly runny. This will determine the cook time. Always have the Instant Pot set to high pressure with any of these times. Set the Instant Pot to your desired cook time...

  5 Minutes Pressure Cook =  Perfect hard-boiled eggs with a firm and fully cooked yolk and firm egg whites. Perfect for egg salad. 

  4 Minutes Pressure Cook = Slightly soft, but firm yolk and firm egg whites. For those who don't love a runny yolk, but also don't love a super firm yolk.

  3 Minutes Pressure Cook = Perfect soft-boiled eggs with a soft and runny/jammy yolk. Personally, this is my favorite kind of egg!
• While the eggs cook, prepare an ice bath. Fill a large bowl with cold water and add several ice cubes to the water.
• As soon as the cooking time is over, turn the steam valve on top of the lid to venting (this will perform a quick pressure release). The steam will immeadiately release from this valve and begin releasing pressure from the pot. Once steam no longer flows from the valve, open the lid and remove the eggs from the Instant Pot and place them in the ice bath. A large spoon or measuring cup works well, or a small sieve. 
• Allow the eggs to rest in the ice water bath for at least 5 minutes before enjoying or storing for later. Store the eggs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (for hard boiled eggs) or up to 2-3 days (for soft boiled eggs). 

How to Peel Eggs:

• The easiest way to peel the eggs is to place the unpeeled eggs under running water, then peel as the water runs.
