Ingredients

  • Two packages of sliced baby portobello mushrooms weighing 8 ounces each
  • One large onion, cut in half
  • A large carrot, halved
  • A stalk of celery, also halved
  • One teaspoon of salt
  • A single bay leaf
  • A total of 10 cups of water

Step 1

Mix together a medley of earthy mushrooms, aromatic onion, sweet carrot, and crisp celery along with a pinch of salt and a fragrant bay leaf in your versatile multi-functional pressure cooker, like the beloved Instant Pot®. Secure the lid tightly and initiate the high-pressure mode as per the manufacturer's guidance, then adjust the timer for a half-hour. Give it time for the pressure to gradually build up, about 30 minutes in total.

Step 2

Once the cooking cycle is complete, perform the natural-release technique according to the manufacturer's specifications, allowing the steam to escape naturally for roughly 30 minutes. Carefully unlock the lid after the pressure has dissipated. To reach the ideal sipping temperature, let the flavorful broth cool for approximately 20 minutes.

Step 3

When ready, strain the contents through a fine mesh strainer, separating the enriched liquid from the spent solids, which can be discarded.
