After all the raves on here, picked up an Instant Pot on special at HEB a while back.
Have tried a bunch of recipes (mostly pork and chicken) and have found it convenient but not a knock-out in the flavor department.
One dish in particular kind of sums it up. It was a chicken recipe, if I'm not mistaken it was the one called "Instant Pot Lemon Garlic Chicken" with the obvious ingredients plus some oil, white wine, paprika, and a few others.
It was good, but not great. The next day, however, it was SO much better reheated. Kind of like the way lasagna or chili or soup is often better the next day - the flavors seem to meld better and the dish then seems "finished".
I find most things cooked in the IP strike me as having the same problem. Good, but not quite living up to the potential of the ingredients.
Has anyone come to this same conclusion, or are my wife and I alone in this opinion?
And, does anyone who gets what I'm saying have any recipes that clearly do NOT suffer from this problem?
