Instant Pot Bone Broth Recipe
| Prep Time | 10 min |
| Cook Time | 2.5 hrs |
| Servings |
quarts
|
Ingredients
- 2-3 lbs bones chicken, beef, lamb, or pork
- 2 stalks celery
- 2 qty medium carrot
- 2 tsp Himalayan salt
- 2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 medium onion cut in half (can leave skin on)
- fresh herbs optional
- filtered water
Ingredients
|
|
Instructions
- *If you're using beef, lamb, or pork bones you'll want to roast them in the oven at 350F for about half an hour before starting with step #1. It does wonders for the flavor.
- Place bones in Instant Pot and top with veggies, apple cider vinegar, and salt.
- Add water until the pot is 2/3 full. If you have time, let the pot sit for 30 minutes so the vinegar can begin to pull minerals out of the bones. I almost never wait. (Shhhh!!)
- Select the 'Soup' button and set the pressure to "low" while increasing the cook time time to 120 minutes. (I actually decrease the time because the timer resets at 120 after you decrease to zero.)
- After two hours, allow the Instant Pot to depressurize naturally. Strain the broth and discard the bones and vegetables. Pour broth into jars and store in the fridge.

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar plus 1 to 2 tablespoons
- 1 tablespoon sugar divided
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (from a rotisserie or other leftover chicken)
- 1 medium-large carrot shredded (about 1 cup)
- 12 rice paper wrappers 8 1/2-inch, See Cook's note
- 1/3 English cucumber or 1 kirby cucumber peeled, julienned, about 1 cup
- 4 scallions finely chopped white and green parts, about 1/2 cup
- 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves or basil or cilantro
- 12 Boston lettuce leaves
- 1/2 cup cooked brown or white rice
- 1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons water
Ingredients
|
|
Instructions
- Whisk 1/4 cup rice vinegar with 2 teaspoons sugar in a medium bowl until sugar dissolves. Add chicken and carrot, season with salt to taste, set aside.
- Fill a large bowl with warm water. Working with 2 sheets of rice paper at a time (keep others covered with a barely damp cloth to prevent curling), immerse papers in the warm water until slightly softened (about 15 seconds). Remove and spread out on a clean surface or cutting board. Pat dry with a towel to remove excess water. Lay 2 pieces of lettuce over the bottom third of the rice paper, leaving about 1/2-inch clear on edges. Place about 1/3 cup chicken and carrot mixture on the lettuce, top with 4 to 5 pieces cucumber, scallion, several mint leaves and about 1 heaping tablespoon of rice. Roll up the paper halfway into a cylinder. Fold both edges in to tuck while continuing to roll the paper to seal. Place the rolls on a plate covered with a damp towel so they stay moist as you prepare the remaining rolls. Cut rolls in half and wrap in plastic wrap or place in an air-tight container.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the peanut butter with the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoon rice vinegar, 2 teaspoons sugar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce and water until smooth. Put sauce in sealed containers.
- Tuck rolls and sauce into a lunch sack with a cold pack and send off to school.
Recipe Notes
Edible rice papers are sold in Asian food aisle in supermarkets or Asian markets. Time Saving Tip: Use leftover rice from Chinese takeout to make these quicker. Make them the night before or prep all ingredients including chicken and carrot mixture so in the morning you just need to roll.
Pork Belly Steamed Bun
| Servings |
|
Ingredients
- 1 steamed bun
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 3 or 4 slices quick-pickled cucumbers
- 1 scant tbsp scallion thinly sliced (green and white)
- siracha to taste
Ingredients
|
|
Instructions
- Heat the bun in a steamer on the stovetop. It should be hot to the touch, which will take almost no time with just-made buns and 2 to 3 minutes with frozen buns
- Grab the bun from the steamer and flop it open on a plate. Slather the inside with the hoisin sauce, using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon. Arrange the pickles on one side of the fold in the bun and the slices of pork belly on the other. Scatter the belly and pickles with sliced scallion, fold closed, and voila; pork bun. Serve with sriracha.
Pork Belly for Ramen, Pork Buns & Just about anything else
| Prep Time | 10 min |

| Servings |
buns worth of meat
|
Ingredients
- 3 lbs slab pork belly skinless
- 1/4 cup kosher salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
Ingredients
|
|
Instructions
- Nestle the belly into a roasting pan or other oven-safe vessel that holds it snugly. Mix together the salt and sugar in a small bowl and rub the mix all over the meat; discard any excess salt-and-sugar mixture. Cover the container with plastic wrap and put it into the fridge for at least 6 hours, but no longer than 24.
- Heat the oven to 450F
- Discard any liquid that accumulated in the container. Put the belly in the oven, fat side up, and cook for 1 hour, basting it with the rendered fat at the halfway point, until it's an appetizing golden brown.
- Turn the temperature down to 250F and cook for another 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, until the belly is tender. It shouldn't be falling apart, but it should have a down pillow-like yield to a firm finger poke. Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the belly to a plate. Decant the fat and the meat juices from the pan and reserve. Allow the belly to cool slightly.
- When it's cool enough to handle, wrap the belly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and put it in the fridge until it's thoroughly chilled and firm. (You can skip this step if you're pressed for time but the only way to get neat, nice-looking slices is to chill the belly thoroughly before slicing it)
- Cut the pork belly into 1/2 inch thick slices that are about 2 inches long. Warm them for serving in a pan over medium heat, just for a minute or two, until they are jiggly soft and heated through. Use at once.

Steamed Buns
ok, so 50 is a lot of buns. But the buns keep in the freezer for months and months without losing any quality, and if you cut the recipe down any more than this there's barely enough stuff in the bowl of the mixer for the dough hook to pick up. So clear out a couple of hours and some pace in the freezer and get to work.

Buns

Ingredients
- 1.3 tbsp active dry yeast
- 1.5 cups water at room temperature
- 510 grams bread flower 4.25 cups
- 756 grams sugar 6tbsp
- 30 grams nonfat dry milk powder 3 tbsp
- 18 grams kosher salt 1 tbsp
- .5 tsp baking powder rounded
- .5 tsp baking soda
- 1/3 cup rendered pork fat or vegetable shortening at room temperature
Ingredients
|
|
Instructions
- Combine the yeast and water in the bowl of a stand mixer outfitted with the dough hook. Add the flour, sugar, milk powder, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and fat and mix on the lowest speed possible for 8 to 10 minutes. The dough should gather together into a neat, not too tacky ball on the hook. When it does, lightly oil a medium mixing bowl, put the dough in it and cover the bowl with a dry kitchen towel. Put it in a turned off oven with a pilot light or other warmish place and let rise until the dough doubles in bulk, about 1 hour 15 min.
- Punch the dough down and turn it out onto a clean work surface. Using a bench scraper or a knife, divide the dough in half, then divide each half into 5 equal pieces. Gently roll the pieces into logs, then cut each log into 5 pieces making 50 pieces total. They should be about the size of a ping-pong ball and weight about 25 grams, or a smidge under an ounce. Roll each piece into a ball. Cover the armada of little dough balls with a draping of plastic wrap and allow them to rest and rise for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut out fifty 4-inch squares of parchment paper. Coat a chopstick with whatever fat you're working with.
- Flatten one ball with the palm of your hand, then use a rolling pin to roll it out onto a 4-inch long oval. Lay the greased chopstick across the middle of the oval and fold the oval over onto itself to form the bun shape. Withdraw the chopstick, leaving the bun folded, and put the bun on a square of parchment paper. Stick it back under the pastic wrap (or a dry kitchen towel) and form the rest of the buns. Let the buns rest for 30-45 min; they will rise a little.
- Set up a steamer on the stove. Working in batches so you don't crowd the steamer, steam the buns on the parchment squares for 10 minutes. Remove the parchment. you can use the buns immediately (reheat them for a minute or so in the steamer if necessary) or allow to cool completely then seal in plastic freezer bags and freeze for up to a few months. Reheat frozen buns in a stove top steamer for 2 to 3 minutes, until puffy, soft, and warmed all the way through.
