Instant Pot Perfect Soft Poached Eggs

I tried many ways of making eggs the way I like them in the Instant Pot before I discovered this method.  I like them with a runny yolk, but a completely cooked white.  This works!

Instructions
  1. Use just a little butter to grease 2 silicone cups. (You can make more than this if you would like. The time will remain the same.)
  2. Put 1 cup of water in the bottom of your Instant Pot, then put a rack in the pot. Place the silicone cups on top of the rack.
  3. Crack 1 egg in each of the silicone cups. Salt & pepper if desired.
  4. Put on lid, seal and set valve to "sealing". Set time for 2 minutes high pressure by pressing the Manual button, the Pressure Cook button or the Egg button and adjusting the time using the + and - buttons.
  5. When the 2 minutes is up, leave the lid on and let it naturally release pressure for 2 minutes. This works perfect in my 3 quart IP every time! But my 8 quart IP requires 2 1/2 minutes NPR time.
  6. Manually release remaining pressure and remove lid. Use tongs to remove silicone cups from pot and place carefully onto plate.
  7. The eggs should slide right out of the silicone cup onto your plate. Some brands of silicone cups require you to loosen the egg a bit with a spoon.
