How long beef is boiled during cooking?

Reading time – 3 minutes.
 

When boiling beef, you should take into account the digestion of meat into broth: only 60-70% of the original weight will remain. For example, you bought 1 kilogram of fresh chilled meat. Keep in mind that during cooking, its weight will decrease to 600-700 grams. Of course, this is provided that the beef was not pumped in anything before packing.

May affect the weight of the final cooked product and the portion of meat. For example, lean sinewy beef from a shoulder blade will decrease by a maximum of 30%, but a juicy and tender tenderloin – in some cases, it can lose up to 50% in weight. If getting the most of your meat is important to you, cook it for a minimum cooking time.

Recipes usually do not indicate which meat is needed – boiled or raw. It is easy to calculate: for meat salads, count at least 20 grams of boiled meat per serving, for sandwiches (boiled pork) – at least 50 grams, for hot – at least 75 grams of boiled beef.
