INSTANT POT EGG LOAF

Steps:

• Lightly spray a 7-inch cake pan with nonstick cooking spray. Crack the eggs into the pan.
• Add 1 1/2 cups water to a 6-quart Instant Pot® and add the rack. Transfer the pan of eggs to the rack and follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 9 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
• Remove the pan and let the eggs cool to room temperature. Invert onto a cutting board and chop the eggs. Perfect for egg salad or to add to potato or tuna salad.

HARD BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Add eggs straight from fridge, in a single layer, to a saucepan. Add enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch at least. Slowly bring water to just under a boil. Once water is at just under a boil, begin to time them. Count 8 minutes for a hard boiled eggs where yolks are firm but center is still tender or 10 minutes for a fully firm inside yolk. For larger eggs, add a minute, for smaller eggs subtract a minute.
• When done, remove with a slotted spoon and plunge in cold water to stop cooking process. Cool them so they are easy to handle; it is best to peel eggs just before using them. Whole boiled eggs can be kept in fridge for a week.
