instant pot
Electric pressure cooker
Instant Pot is a brand name for a multicooker—a countertop appliance combining pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, and other functions.
The name has become semi-generic for any electric pressure cooker: I made pulled pork in the instant pot.
The device gained cult popularity in the 2010s for dramatically reducing cooking times.
