Important nutritional disclaimer
Hi Jill. Just a quick question. You did say the corn should be in the liquid but only the bottom layer is. Do I add more liquid so the top ones are touching the liquid and the bottom ones are covered in liquid?
It seems very fast by using the instant pot! xo However I'm confused that part setting to high pressure for 2 minute and then let them cooked in the other 13 minutes?
