It’s as simple as heating up some milk, adding an acid, and waiting a minute for the magic to begin. The yogurt setting on the Instant Pot heats the milk up to the required 180 degrees, so all you have to do is add the vinegar and strain the mixture. {(rater>id=100|name=Instant Pot Ricotta|type=rate|headline=off)} |**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 6 servings|| |**Prep:** 0:05|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:30| ====== Ingredients ====== * 4 cups whole milk * 2 tbs white vinegar ====== Directions ====== - Pour the milk into the Instant Pot, close the lid, and set the vent to Sealing. - Press the Yogurt button and press Adjust until you see Boil. - Let the pot run the boil cycle.
