Cooking Instructions

INSTANT POT Ingredients

1 cup Amethyst mixed grain mix (see above)

1/4 tsp kosher salt

1 cup water

Instant Pot Directions

1. Rinse the grains in cool water until the water is mostly clear. Washing the grains thoroughly helps them stay separate and decreases the gummy texture that these grains sometimes get when they are cooked.

2. Add the grains, salt, and water to the InstantPot. Set the Instant Pot to "Low" pressure for 16 minutes. Turn the pressure valve to "Sealing." When the Instant Pot beeps that it's done, let the pressure release naturally.

3. As soon as the pin drops, the grains are ready to eat! Fluff the grains with a fork before serving to help separate the grains.
