Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Okay, there are about nine million Instant Pot books out there. It can be difficult and confusing to choose, as many of these books are excellent. I know, I end up buying most of them! But if you have an Instant Pot and are looking for one really good book to use with it, here are some reasons to buy this one: 1. Authorized by the Instant Pot company. When you see this on a book, you can be assured that the recipes therein will actually work. 2. Recipes were tested in every model of Instant Pot, from the Lux all the way up to the new Max. So it doesn't matter which one you have, the recipes will work. The only ones that will not work in ALL pots are the sous-vide ones, that are designed to work only in the Max. But considering that there are 350 recipes in the whole book, and only eight of them are sous-vide, that leaves you with 342 to try, if you have no plans to get the Max once it comes out. 3. Many of the recipes can be adapted for the 3 quart Mini. Usually, they can just be halved, but if there are other considerations, or the recipe would not be successful if halved, they will tell you this. 4. Easily available ingredients. A trip to your local supermarket will mostly likely provide everything you need to make these recipes. You will not have to hunt down an ethnic grocery store, or order ingredients online. 5. Kids and adults alike will enjoy these recipes. No "weird" ingredients, but still plenty of flavor, and you can adjust the seasonings to you and your family's tastes. 6. The "road maps". These give amounts of types of ingredients (cheese, meat, quick-cooking veggies, root/longer-cooking veggies, etc. You can mix and natch these based on what you like, or have on hand, or what you can find in the store. These lone may well be worth the price of the book, as they will help you save money by using what you have, what is on sale, whatever. 7. Do you need visuals? While the book does not have a photo of every recipe in it (that would have driven up the cot of the book), the authors have just set up a YouTube channel with videos of recipes from the book, with more being added. Do a search on YouTube for "Cooking with Bruce & Mark" to find it. 8. The recipes work and taste great, at least all I have tried so far have. You really can't go wrong here!
