Hi, have you used an instant pot for this recipe and know what the settings would be? -
Is the bacon or pork necessary? I don't like either flavor in clam chowder. Should I add more salt, or some kind of broth? -
So, what do you do with the cooked bacon, paprika, and thyme? The directions don't say when to put them in.

This was really good!! I did make a few changes to lower the fat and calories, but it was DELICIOUS!! I only used a tiny bit of bacon for flavor, replaced drippings with olive oil (healthier fat) used a can of evap. skim milk in place of half and half and omitted the butter. It was really yummy and easy ...... especially for this novice pressure cooker cook! Thanks! Will be keeping this in the rotation!
