The rich sweet, sour, spicy, and tarty chewy spaghetti is a very old Italian dish. Many believe that spaghetti is an Italian dish that mainly originated in the Middetarranean.

But this isn’t the case, Chinese cuisine inspired spaghetti and other pasta dishes. Long ago, people cooked spaghetti by boiling it on a pot or kettle that’s exposed to open fire. This method is fine for cooking small quantities of spaghetti. But for cooking a lot, this method is time-consuming and risks overcooking.

Instant pots were a game-changer for cooking spaghetti. They solved issues like overcooking and arduous cooking process. Furthermore, they also saved the spaghetti from smelling smokey or feiry.

But apart from making spaghetti simpler, instant pots also other numerous benefits. Instant pots aren’t single purpose. So aside from cooking spaghetti, they allow people to cook stew, curry, marinara, frittata, steamed meatball, pork bun, etc.

Talking about the benefits which the instant pots bring will be long. To make things clear and concise. here’s a quick summary of the advantages that you’ll enjoy by using instant pots:
– instant pots have non-fluctuating heat capacity – there’s a lesser risk for the spaghetti to be overcooked or raw
– instant pots do the work by themselves, and you don’t have to mind them
– a lot of dishes center on utilizing instant pots nowadays
– instant pots are a green cooking method because they only use electricity
– instant pots can be used anytime and anywhere as long as there’s a power source

 
Some are better at doing things than others. For example, you might be a better writer than me. Likewise, instant pots aren’t equally good. Few brands are better than others. Heat capacity, design, durability, and functions – all instant pots aren’t the same in terms of these. Looking into things is important before buying.
