Cheesy Tuna HelperTaste: Very good.Cleanup: Aaugh! Burned noodles!.Ingredients: All available at PublixI just tried Instant Pot Cheesy Tuna Helper, and ran into issues The recipe calls for dumping everything in the pot and pressure cooking for 4 minutes. Seemed dead simple. Unfortunately, before it even got up to pressure, the overheat warning came on. Clearly there are variations in the kinds of noodles out there. The ones I got soaked up all the water and stuck to the bottom of the pot in very short order. Not a total disaster since everything seemed to be heated up enough, so I stirred up the noodles that weren't stuck with the other ingredients, and it tasted OK. Soaking and scraping has gotten most of the noodles off the bottom, and it looks like the remaining blobs will eventually capitulate, so I should recover soon. I either need to try this on low temp slow cooker mode, or find some different noodles the next time :-). Success! I tried this again with some Great Value wide egg noodles from the Walmart grocery near my house. The original recipe worked fine. Got through 4 minutes of pressure with no overheat warnings and no noodles glued to the bottom of the pot. I don't remember what strange brand of noodles I got at Publix, so I guess I'll stick to Walmart when I make this next time. Some of the quantities in the original are hard to find. I don't see any 28 oz cans of soup, but there is a family size 22.6 oz can, so I used it. I used one large can of tuna (12 oz), and a lot of folks seem to have trouble printing the weight on their bags of noodles, but I finally found one that actually said 16 oz. The smallest batch of frozen peas I could find were a 10 oz bag, which is probably bigger than 1 cup, but I just dumped them all in. Aaugh! I made it again with the Walmart noodles that worked fine the first time I tried them, and I got the overheat warning and noodles stuck to the pot again. Should I use more water? Should I try putting the peas on the bottom? Very inconsistent results with this. |
