Instant Pot Shrimp Broth Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 cups shrimp shells (from 2 pounds of shrimp)
- 10 baby carrots
- 1 medium onion, halved with root end removed
- 1 stalk celery, cut into thirds
- 2 cloves garlic, halved
- 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 5 cups water
Directions
Step 1: Begin by placing the shrimp shells, carrots, onion, celery, garlic, vinegar, salt, and pepper into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot).
Step 2: Pour in the water, then close and securely lock the lid of the pressure cooker.
Step 3: Set the cooker to "Manual" mode according to the manufacturer's instructions, and set the timer for 60 minutes.
Step 4: Allow about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up in the cooker.
Step 5: Once the cooking time is complete, release the pressure using the natural-release method as per the manufacturer's instructions, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 6: After the natural release, perform a quick-release to release any remaining pressure. This should take about 5 minutes.
Step 7: Carefully unlock and remove the lid from the pressure cooker.
Step 8: Pour the resulting liquid through a fine strainer to separate the solids, then discard the solids.
