A pressure cooker heats up a heartwarming life on the plateau
BEIJING, March 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on people’s life in Xizang:  A pressure cooker heats up a heartwarming life on the plateau Songzhuji and her family live in a village in Nyainrong County, Nagqu City, Xizang Autonomous Region. Given the 4700m altitude, the air pressure is much lower than on the plains, so water boils at a little more than 80 degrees. This poses a culinary challenge for Songzhuji: undercooked rice and cooked meat too firm to be swallowed. So, pressure cookers are a necessity here on the plateau. However, ordinary pressure cookers are designed for use on flat plains; if used on plateaus, problems may arise, like a lack of pressure, and safety issues. People use a pressure cooker to steam rice, and then they’ll have to switch to pans for cooking soup or other dishes, which is not convenient enough, either. The Xizang Autonomous Region has an average altitude of over 4,000 meters, thus almost every household faces the not-so-handy-cooker problem like Songzhuji. The local government has directed attention to this issue: Trivial as it seems, it actually has everything to do with whether local people can enjoy tasty meals, and furthermore, whether they feel […]
