The art of cooking lies not only in the selection of ingredients, but also in the control of heat and time. Today, let me take you into the wonderful world of pressure cooker beef stew, and discuss how to turn this everyday ingredient into a delicious dish on the table through precise time control.
Beef, a powerful ingredient, is rich in protein, low in fat and calories, and is a perfect combination of nutrition and taste. As a magical tool in the modern kitchen, the pressure cooker can retain the original flavor of the ingredients to the greatest extent, making the beef more tender and tasty through high temperature and high pressure.
So, how many minutes should beef be cooked in a pressure cooker? This is not a fixed time, it depends on the taste you want and the dish you are cooking. Generally speaking, if you want the beef to be tender, you can cook it in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes to an hour. If you like a chewy texture, 20-30 minutes is enough.
