How To Make Pressure Cooker Hoppin’ John [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make in the Pressure Cooker:
  1. Using saute function (high), add onion and celery to pressure cooker and saute until just becoming translucent.
  2. Add the garlic and rosemary and stir for 1-2 minutes, make sure it doesn't burn. Keep warm.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients to the pot, filling until halfway full with ingredients covered with liquid (use water to adjust level, but take care not to overfill). Close the lid. Use the beans/chili function and set timer to 25 minutes. Use natural release.

To Make on the Stovetop:

  1. In a large soup pot over medium-high heat, water saute onion and celery until just becoming translucent. Add the garlic and rosemary and saute for 1-2 minutes or until garlic is fragrant, making sure not to burn garlic, adding 1-2 tablespoons water at a time, if necessary.
  2. Add the rest of the items to the pot, stir to combine and bring to boil. Cover and lower heat to simmer for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
