How long to stew beef in a pressure cooker

Beef is relatively refreshing and tender, so braised beef is more suitable for the elderly and children. The reason why many people use a pressure cooker when braising beef is that the pressure in the pressure cooker is high, so the beef can be cooked quickly and made very tender, which will make it more flavorful at once. When stewing beef in a pressure cooker, pay attention to controlling the heat and time, and the ingredients placed will make the beef more flavorful.

Can braised beef be cooked in a pressure cooker?

The time for stewing beef in a pressure cooker is about half an hour. The detailed method is as follows:

Ingredients: 2000g beef brisket

Accessories: Onion, cooking wine, thirteen spice bag, soybean paste, hawthorn, ginger, salt, soy sauce, aniseed

step:

1. Wash and set aside appropriate amount of beef brisket.

2. Cut into cubes, don’t cut too small as they will shrink after cooking.

3. Add appropriate amount of cold water into the pot, put the beef brisket into the pot, blanch over medium heat and remove the foam.

4. While blanching, use chopsticks to put the blanched beef brisket into the bowl. This way the blood foam can be removed more cleanly without the need to rinse with water to remove the floating foam.

5. While blanching the beef brisket and removing the foam, heat the pressure cooker with water enough to cover two knuckles of the meat. Prepare the seasoning box and other seasonings.

6. After the water boils, put the blanched beef brisket into the pressure cooker, pour in a little cooking wine and soy sauce, add onion knots, ginger slices, thirteen spice bag, a large spoonful of soybean paste and the seasoning box. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover the pressure cooker, and simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes. If there are large amounts of soy sauce and soybean paste, you don’t need to add salt. If you want to add salt, just add it at the end.

1. If you want it to be cooked well, 30 minutes is enough. If it is cooked, it will take about ten minutes.

Precautions for stewing beef in a pressure cooker

1. Of course, you must use qualified products from regular manufacturers. Pressure cookers can be used for more than ten years or even dozens of years without any problems, so choose a better one when buying. Please read the instruction manual carefully before use and follow the instructions.

2. Before use, check whether the pressure valve is unobstructed, whether the rubber ring is aging and loose, and whether the upper and lower handles are tightly closed. If there are any problems, consult the manufacturer in time, solve them or replace the accessories before use.

3. The food and liquid in the pressure cooker should not be too full, especially for expanding ingredients such as porridge, beans, etc. It is best not to exceed 2/3 of the volume.

4. When using a pressure cooker, pay attention to the heat. Generally, use high heat before steam is generated. Once steam is generated, change to medium or low heat. For example, when using a pressure cooker to cook mung bean porridge, if you do not turn down the heat in time, the rice grains and bean skins in the pressure cooker will boil and easily clog the steam venting hole of the pressure limiting valve and the hole of the fusible link, which can easily cause danger.

5. After turning off the fire, you must wait until the pressure valve has completed reducing the pressure and make sure that the liquid in the pot is not boiling before opening the lid. For example, for soups and porridge, although the pressure reduction is completed, it is very easy to get scalded by the hot steam if you open the lid immediately. This is a lesson learned.
