+1 to pressure cooker for a few mins + cold water bath. I tried all the tricks normally stated for hard boiling eggs, and always had half the eggs just refusing to come out of their shell. 100% of the time with my instant pot they just slip out of the shell.

I poach eggs for breakfast in my InstantPot. 3 eggs for 5 minutes on steam. I've found that eggs with orange yolks tend towards a jammy texture, but yellow yolks tend towards a drier texture.

When poaching eggs in water the usual way, a tablespoon of vinegar in the water keeps them together, not scattered all over the pan.

Thanks! I'm going to have to try that.

Hmm, seems serious eats doesn't agree, but I've tried everything over the years and the instant pot has worked best for me.
