Bone Broth Pressure Cooker 500 Liters

A pressure cooker is a pot that is sealed and has a valve which controls the steam pressure inside. When the pot is heated, the liquid inside turns into steam which raises the pressure in the pot. This high pressure steam has two main effects:

1. Raise the boiling point of the cooking material inside the pot

When you cook something that involves water, like a stew, bone broth, or steamed vegetables, the heat of your cooking is limited to the boiling point of water, which is 100℃ (212°F). However, if you use a pressure cooker to cook, the boiling point of water can be raised as high as 121℃ (250°F) due to the pressure created. This higher heat helps the food to cook faster and more efficiently.

2. Force liquid into the cooking material

As the pressure builds up, it exerts a force that pushes liquid deep into the food. This process not only speeds up the cooking time but also enhances the tenderness of tough meats. The intense pressure helps break down the fibers of the meat, making it more succulent and flavorful.
