Pressure Cook Mushroom Broth
Start by tossing the mushrooms, onion, carrot, celery, salt, bay leaf, and water into your Instant Pot or any similar pressure cooker. Secure the lid and set it to cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. It’ll take about half an hour for the pressure to build up before the cooking starts. Once the time is up, let the pressure release naturally—this usually takes around 30 minutes. When it’s safe to open, remove the lid and let the broth cool for about 20 minutes. Finally, strain the liquid through a fine sieve to catch all the veggies and herbs, then discard the solids. Your mushroom broth is ready to enjoy or use in your favorite recipes!
