Toasted Corn Stock Pressure Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• If you want to roast the bones first, heat the oven to 450ºF. Lay the bones out on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until well browned, 25 to 35 minutes.
• Put the bones (roasted or not) in the pressure cooker pot and add all the remaining ingredients. Cover with 3 to 3 1/2 quarts of water (the water shouldn't come more than two-thirds of the way up the side of the pot). To make regular stock, cook on high pressure for 1 hour if using all chicken or poultry bones, or 2 hours for beef or pork bones or a combination of poultry and meat. For bone broth, cook on high pressure for 3 hours for poultry bones, and 4 1/2 hours for beef, pork, or mixed bones. When making bone broth, you'll know you've cooked it long enough if all the connective tissue, tendons, and cartilage have dissolved and the bones crumble a bit when you poke at them. If this hasn't happened, cook it on high pressure for another 30 minutes and check it again.
• Allow the pressure to release naturally. Use the broth or stock right away, or store it in the refrigerator or freezer. Bone broth and regular stock will keep for 5 days refrigerated or up to 6 months frozen.

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 cups water to a 6-quart Instant Pot® and add the rack. Stand the corn on the rack, broken ends down (the corn will fit snugly). Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 4 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 175 degrees C or 350°F.
• Shuck the corn, reserving the husks.
• Scatter the husks on a baking sheet. Top with an inverted cooling rack.
• Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• Cut the kernels from the cobs; reserve the corn kernels for some other use.
• Place the corncobs and toasted husks, BUT NOT THE KERNELS, in a 6-quart or larger pressure cooker. Add the water.
• Secure the lid and pressure-cook at 1-bar (low pressure) for 30 minutes (start timing when full pressure is reached). (If your stove runs hot, and it is difficult to maintain only 1 bar of pressure, either stack another burner grate or use a heat diffuser.).
• Remove from heat, allow pressure to reduce naturally.
• Strain through a sieve lined with 1 layer of cheesecloth.
• Stock may be used warm or cold. Keeps for 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 6 months when frozen.
