Beef Broth with the Pressure Cooker

The beef broth with the pressure cooker, a basic recipe of Italian cuisine, made with lots of good meat and used to cook tortellini, passatelli, or for preparing risotto.

The beef broth we propose is prepared in the PRESSURE COOKER with shorter cooking times compared to the classic version in a pot but without sacrificing flavor.

We recommend also trying the vegetable broth with the pressure cooker, perfect for many preparations.

In the recipe, you will also find the procedure with the multicooker.

Steps for the beef broth with the pressure cooker:

  • Wash, peel the celery and carrots and cut them into pieces, peel the onion and cut it into 4 parts.

    Put the meat in the pressure cooker, turn on the gas and brown it with very little oil, add the vegetables, bay leaves, cloves, and salt.

    Add water until it is below the mark on the pressure cooker.

  • Close the pressure cooker, place it on a medium burner, turn on the gas to high and when you hear the whistle or the leverblock raises, it means the pot is under pressure, lower the gas and cook for 60 minutes.

    When the cooking time has elapsed, turn off the gas, release the steam by turning the valve, when the leverblock lowers you can open the pressure cooker. 

    Set aside the meat and vegetables.

    Strain the broth with a colander covered with a towel or use a gauze, put the broth in the pot, adjust salt and use it to cook tortellini, cappelletti, passatelli, or risottos.

    Use the vegetables to make a healthy cooked vegetable salad seasoned with a drizzle of oil.

  • IN THE MULTICOOKER:

    The cooking times and ingredients remain unchanged, to sauté use the sauté/pan-fry program and for cooking use the pressure cooking or stew program.
