Thanks for sharing the tip Sigird. I haven’t tried elote yet.

You mentioned elote. I’m wondering if you’ve tried it yet and if so, what you thought and do you have a recipe to share?

I bought the first corn of the season from our local produce stand this morning. I CANNOT WAIT to have some delicious corn on the cob cooked in my Instant Pot!

I mentioned it before but for those looking at more recent comments on corn on the cob cooking I’ll repeat it. For years I spread butter on my corn on the cob with a knife. Some got on the corn but much dripped on the plate and though I tried to sop it up with my cob of corn much of it was wasted. Instead take a slice of bread (it doesn’t have to be fresh) and spread some butter on it. Run your cob of corn on the buttered bread to butter it . And if you wish you can eat the bread when  you’ve finished eating your corn.

Hi Alvin – yes, you can overcook corn. It would be better to cook the corn after the potatoes since potatoes stay warm for a long time.

I was hoping to do potatoes at the same time (two potatoes and two ears of corn) but recipes for baked potatoes in an Instant Pot is usually 15 min. and natural release while corn for the most part is 2-3 min. and quick release.

I want to make an additional comment to what I’ve said previously. In 2016 I wrote, “I do believe browning is better in a stovetop – or at least quicker as you can control the heat and use very high heat if desired.” The pot for one of the newest Instant Pot models, the Duo Evo Plus can be used directly on the stove. Hence the best of both worlds – great browning one can get from a stove and the ease of pressure cooking with an electric pressure cooker.

We have a local  farm that sells sweet corn each summer from stands set up all over the city. The corn I cooked was likely picked the previous night or even that morning. I cooked 6 cobs, 3 minutes using a natural pressure release. I think 2 minutes would have been a little two short a cooking time. Some recipes I’ve seen say use cold water in the pot and  that could also affect results. With cold water rather than warm or hot, the Instant Pot would take a bit longer to come to pressure, but of course beginning to cook during that time. 

Slathered in butter, the corn was of course delicious. Next time I’m going to try sprinkling Everything But the Elote Seasoning Blend from Trader Joe’s. It’s  “Everything” you might find on elote—chile pepper, Parmesan cheese, chipotle powder, cumin, dried cilantro, sea salt, etc.—minus the corn itself. (We also add some corn flour & cane sugar, so there’s really no mistaking what it’s meant to mimic.)”

I also read about an idea that might be worth trying. Typically as you try to spread butter on the corn it drips and runs all over the plate. The suggestion was to take a slice of bread,  spread the butter on the bread and roll the corn on the buttered bread. When finished, eat the bread.

I would use the same cook time for frozen corn.
