Notes
- Tenderizing pork leg in a pressure cooker is an efficient method for achieving a soft texture in less time compared to traditional cooking. Place the meat in the pressure cooker with liquid. For this recipe, you can use water, which can be drained afterward, or beef broth to allow the flavor to soak into the meat while it tenderizes. Seal the pressure cooker and cook on high pressure for about 30 minutes. After cooking, allow the pressure to release naturally before opening the lid. This method quickly breaks down the tough fibers in the pork leg, resulting in tender and flavorful meat much faster than the normal cooking time, which usually takes more than an hour.
