Any know how to make the pho tai broth?

[palidanx]

so pho tai refers to just the raw cut out of beef, you make a traditional beef broth. Here is a short cut way with an instant pot.

* Beef bones (neck or shin, the type of bones you get depend on how intense it will be)

* 1 chicken carcass

* Parboil for 10 minutes, throw away broth, rinse bones

* Parboil chicken carcass for 2 minutes

* Char onion and ginger

* Toast coriander, star anise, cardamom

* Add chicken carcass, bones in an instant pot, covered with water, and some salt and onion and ginger

* High pressure for 15 minutes (depends on quantity)

* Natural release

* Add spices, high pressure for 3 minutes (and if you are added brisket - nam, parboil that first and add it here)

* Season with salt to taste, mushroom seasoning (bot nem), or msg.

* Refrigerate overnight

For tai, you want to cut a some raw meat and just make sure your stock is very hot so it cooks

Thank you for sharing. Never used cardamom and bot nem, so this is also something for me to try.
