Notes
1. Instant Pot Manual states "When cooking food that expands during cooking such as rice, beans or dried vegetables, do not fill the unit over ½ full."2. Beef bones can be added when boiling the tripe for a more flavorful broth otherwise use Knorr chicken powder seasoning or bouillon cubes.3. When seasoning Goto, you may add more Knorr Chicken powder if desired. Add this first before seasoning with salt.4. Instead of straining ingredients on the 2nd boil, pick all the peppercorn and discard. Leave the other ingredients, it will add more flavor to the dish.5. If you don’t like a very sticky texture, can you can ½ glutinous and ½ regular rice.6. To make toasted garlic, click link How to Toast Garlic.7. Set aside some tripe for garnish, if you like but optional.8. Refrigerate leftover.9. Please read the Instant Pot Manual if this is your first time to use it.
