  9. Put the beef broth into the electric pressure cooker and start cooking at the standard setting. After cooking, simmer for half an hour. (If you don’t have an electric pressure cooker, you can also use a non-stick pan to cook it, but it will take longer. Personally, I think using an electric pressure cooker can better maintain the rich flavor of the meat)
