Ingredients:

1/3 cup Kosher Salt
7 cups Water, divided
2 pounds Russet Potatoes

Close the lid and set the steam release knob to the sealing position.

Press the Pressure Cooker/Manual button, then the +/- button to select 11 minutes on high pressure.

When the cooking time ends, immediately turn the steam release knob to the venting position and do a quick release of the pressure.

When the pin in the lid drops down, open the lid and remove the potatoes to a baking sheet.
Brush the potatoes with melted butter and place in a 475 Degrees oven for 3-5 minutes to crisp the skin slightly.

Remove from the oven and serve the potatoes with any toppings you would like.


Notes

If the potatoes you are using are larger, set the timer longer to ensure the potatoes are fully cooked.
