- Place the lid on the instant pot pressure cooker, set the valve to sealing and pressure cook for 0 minutes followed by a quick pressure release.
- After a quick pressure release, place the pumpkin in sieve and rinse with cold water, followed by a cold water bath to quickly stop the cooking process.
- Let it sit in an ice bath for a couple of minutes before completely draining.
