After making a lot of meat and side dishes in Instant Pot, it's a high time to make a fish. The recommended choice is a Salmon. Instant Pot will help you make it amazingly easy and fast. All in all, it takes only 30 minutes from start to finish including 4 minutes of pressure cooking. It is simple to make it but there is an important information to remember. You have to add liquid (in our case sweet white wine - Martini Blanco) and keep an eye on the watch. If you don't have enough liquid and the liquid is just water, the Instant Pot Salmon will turn out too dry and tasteless. If you cook it for too long, it will look like a rice pudding - shapeless and wobbly. You can check Gordon Ramsay who makes perfect salmon but it is not a pressure cooking version, so it takes longer. Salmon goes well with broccoli, baby potatoes and other steamed vegetables.
