Instant Pot® Mushroom Broth

This is a basic mushroom broth used for flavoring soup, pasta, and rice. Any combination of mushrooms can be used, but I find the baby bellas make the richest, most flavorful broth. Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor but since I do not know the specifics of what you will be using this for, I kept this basic and left them out. Store in the refrigerate up to 5 days or freeze up to 3 months.
