What should I pay attention to when steaming chestnuts in pressure cooker?
1, chestnuts will open.
When the chestnuts are steamed in an autoclave, the chestnuts will be steamed due to the pressure generated by the hot air generated in the heating process of the autoclave, so it is necessary to cut the chestnuts into cross knives in advance to exhaust the gas inside, so that the chestnuts will not explode due to the pressure during the steaming process.
So remember to cut chestnuts into crosses first, or just split a hole with a knife.
2, small and medium fire
When the pressure cooker is working on the stove, you can't start a big fire, because the fire is too powerful, which will make chestnuts difficult to cook and easy to cook. Therefore, it must be steamed slowly with medium and small fire, so that the chestnuts can be steamed and delicious. Therefore, it is also a key to adjust the firepower to medium and small firepower.
Step 3 add some ingredients
Chestnut, if steamed only, has a light taste and a poor taste. So you can prepare a proper amount of oil and rock sugar and add it to chestnuts, so that the steamed chestnuts are sweet, fragrant and waxy. Moreover, chestnuts are coated with sugar and oil, which makes them particularly delicious.
