Stop Cooking These 10 Foods in Your Instant Pot
The Instant Pot is an incredibly convenient appliance, especially in the summer when you don't want to spend a lot of time in front of the stove. It offers multiple cooking options and features, but there are limits to its power, and some foods don't fare well in the machine. To save you time, money and having to eat something awful, we've devised this list of foods you should never cook in the Instant Pot. Here are 10 food items and recipes you should never cook in your Instant Pot. And for more cooking tips, check out nine cooking hacks that actually work, why you might be ruining your chef's knife and the top slow cooker mistakes to avoid. Seafood Shrimp is best cooked on the grill or in a sauté pan. David Watsky/CNET In general, seafood such as fish, oysters, shrimp, mussels and clams is just too delicate for pressure cooking and slow cooking modes. They are foods that are meant to be cooked quickly at just the right temperature, which is hard to do with an Instant Pot. A few seconds too long or at the wrong temperature, and you can end up with mush or rubbery lumps. Besides, fish, shellfish and crustaceans are easily cooked with other methods, so breaking out the Instant Pot for them won't guarantee better results as it can for tougher meats. The only exception is octopus and squid. Pressure cooking these tough creatures can make them tender while keeping the meat juicy. Just be sure to find a recipe that is specifically for the Instant Pot. Fried and crispy food Fries and other crispy foods don't work in the Instant Pot. Elevation Burger Unless you've purchased a specialty model, your Instant Pot is not a pressure fryer and isn't designed for the higher temperatures needed to heat cooking oil for something like crispy fried chicken. Of course, an Instant Pot is perfect for a dish like carnitas, but to get the final crisp on the meat, after you remove the meat from the Instant Pot, transfer it to a skillet and brown for a few minutes or on a baking sheet to crisp up in a hot oven. (However, if you're looking for an air fryer that will get your food nice and crispy, you can check out our tested picks for the best air fryers of 2025). CNET Dairy-based food Just like in a slow cooker, most dairy products such as cheese, milk and sour cream will curdle in an Instant Pot, no matter if you use the pressure cooking setting or the slow cooking setting. Add these ingredients after the dish cooks or avoid making the recipe in the Instant Pot altogether. There are two exceptions. One is when you're making yogurt, and that's only if you use a recipe specifically for an Instant Pot. The other is if you're making a cheesecake, and again, only if you're following an Instant Pot recipe. Pasta and noodles A pot of boiling water is the only way to cook pasta properly. Getty/JannHuizenga While you technically can cook pasta in an Instant Pot, it may come out gummy or unevenly cooked. Honestly, unless you don't have the option, boiling the pasta in a pot on a stovetop is just as fast and easy and will yield consistently better cooked pasta. Read more: No, Salted Water Doesn't Boil Faster and 7 Other Pasta Myths Two recipes at once Cooking a roast with potatoes and carrots is a time-honored recipe, right? Not in this case. Don't try to cook a main dish with a side dish in your Instant Pot. They may fit in the pot together, but each food will need its own cooking time. Cooking items together will inevitably result in a dry or mushy mess. Cakes You aren't really baking a cake in an Instant Pot, you're steaming it. The cake will be moist -- which works for something like bread pudding -- but you won't get a nice crust on the cake or the chewy edges that everyone fights over with baked brownies. However, if you do need to throw something together for a potluck or quick family dessert, you can get a moist sponge in half an hour or so, excluding prep time. Foods for canning Canning, the art of cooking and sealing foods in jars, is often done in a pressure cooker. So, it may seem like a good idea to make a batch of jams, pickles or jellies in your Instant Pot. Don't do it. With an Instant Pot, you're not able to monitor the temperature of what you're canning as you would with a regular pressure cooker. With canning, cooking and sealing the food correctly is key. Improper cooking and sealing can lead to bacteria growth that can cause food poisoning. While you want to avoid canning with an Instant Pot, some of the newer models (like the Duo Plus) do have a sterilize setting that lets you clean baby bottles and kitchen items like jars and utensils. Good steak A pressure cooker is not a barbecue. An Instant Pot does great with tougher cuts of meat -- which the pressure cooker can easily break down -- but not so good with ones that are best eaten medium-rare, like a steak. Save those for the grill. Yellow and red lentils Not all lentils can stand up to an Instant Pot's pressure. James Martin/CNET We love lentils, but not all of them can be cooked in an Instant Pot. Brown and green lentils can hold up to pressure cooking, but the more delicate yellow and red versions turn to mush because they cook so quickly. Unless you're purposely making lentil soup or dhal, stick to cooking red and yellow lentils on the stove to preserve their texture and shape. Cookies Cookies aren't going in your Instant Pot, are they? Getty Images Cookies are another baked food that doesn't work when made in the Instant Pot, either on pressure cooker or slow cooker mode. Instead, try your luck with convection heat by way of a wall oven, toaster or air fryer.

Long Island teen Finn Schiavone overcomes paralysis, credits Navy SEALs as inspiration
A Long Island teenager says a Navy SEAL museum, and the people who run it, inspired him to overcome an unthinkable challenge. Finn Schiavone overcame paralysis after a traumatic brain injury he sustained during wrestling practice almost three years ago. "I lost my ability to walk, talk, read and write," Schiavone said. He says the bravery on display at West Sayville's Lt. Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum is what inspired him as he went through rehab. "It's like, truly amazing - what people were able to put their mind to," Schiavone said. After two years of slight improvements, one day his aide rolled him into the museum in his wheelchair. Schiavone said something within its walls lit a new spark. "I was dazed out, half the time. But I remember coming here, and I was like, this is the place. They're going to be with me," Schiavone said. He was right. "Every time he came back, something new changed" "This kid had this infectious smile and charisma to him, but he couldn't relay his message," Lt. Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum Executive Director Chris Wylie said. Wylie said the two developed an instant connection, and as Schiavone frequently returned to the museum, that bond grew. "Winded up making this museum a normal spot, monthly or every other month, to come and visit and give him a little more inspiration," Wylie said. Each time Schiavone showed off his progress. His rehab, six days a week, were helping him. "Every time he came back, something new changed," Wylie said. Finn Schiavone takes his first steps during a race in 2024. Schiavone family Last year, during a race, Wylie was there to help Schiavone take his first steps on his own. "He ended up surprising his mother, taking a couple of steps. She never saw him get out of his wheelchair and be able to move on his own," Wylie said. Schiavone made these significant improvements after two years in a wheelchair, which is when doctors say significant functional recovery is rare. Now Schiavone is fully recovered, and competing in strength challenges at the museum. "I have nothing but gratitude for this place," he said. His next goal is to finish up high school and, once he graduates in two years, he wants to go into the Naval Academy and pursue special warfare.
