Pressure cooker Pho Ga (vietnamese chicken soup)

OK. First of all, this does not aim to be authentic in any sense of the word or be simple or be perfect. It is a reasonable approximation of a favorite chicken soup/flavor profile produced with what I see as the right level of tradeoffs between time saving and being finicky. The most memorable Pho Ga I've had was at Turtle Tower in SF. This is chasing that flavor memory but also maybe some of my own chicken soup preferences.

Tools required:

  • Pressure Cooker (stovetop or electric)
  • Fine mesh sieve or chinois
  • Cast iron pan
