Instant Pot Ham Broth Food

INSTANT POT® HAM

Steps:

• Place ham on a trivet and set it inside a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Pour crushed pineapple over ham. Sprinkle brown sugar and drizzle maple syrup on top. Secure the lid with vent closed.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 35 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Remove ham and trivet. Cut ham into slices and place on a plate.
• Select Saute setting on the pressure cooker. Mix cornstarch with water until smooth. Stir mixture into the pot, bring to a boil, and stir until thickened. Pour sauce over the ham.

INSTANT POT HAM BONE BROTH

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to the Instant Pot.
• Secure the Instant Pot lid and close sealing valve.

INSTANT POT HAM BROTH

Steps:

• Put the ham hocks, onions, carrot, celery, garlic, bay leaves, salt, and peppercorns in an Instant Pot or other pressure cooker, then pour in 8 cups of water. (The water should cover everything - you can add more if you need to, up to the max fill line of your cooker.)
• Lock the lid and pressure cook on high pressure for 60 minutes in an Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker (use Manual or Pressure Cook mode in an Instant Pot) or for 50 minutes in a stovetop pressure cooker. Let the pressure come down naturally - about 30 minutes. (It takes a long time for all that water to cool off.) If you're in a hurry, let the pressure come down naturally for 20 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
• Unlock the lid and open it away from you to avoid any hot steam. With a slotted spoon, scoop the ham hocks and vegetables out of the pot and discard; they gave their all to the broth. Strain the broth through a fine mesh strainer. Refrigerate the broth for a couple of days, or portion into 2-cup containers and freeze for up to 6 months.

Internal temperature in bottom center of ham (uncut portion) should be at least 140°F using instant-read thermometer. If ham is not done, select MANUAL, and cook on high pressure 3 minutes longer. Select CANCEL. Set pressure valve to VENTING position to release pressure manually.
• When cool enough to handle, carefully transfer ham to cutting board. Cut slices away from the ham.
