Measurments for this is listed below *if you don’t have rock sugar, you can use regular granulated sugar. I’d started with 3 TBSP *if you don’t have pho seasoning, then you can season your broth AFTER you’ve cooked using ingredients like: salt, fish sauce, chicken bouillon, MSG and/ or sugar. *you can also use regular rom temp water. Just keep in mind that doing this will take the pressure cooker a little longer to start cooking   DIY PHO SPICE 2 star anise 1 cinnamon sticks 1 cardmom pods ½ tsp cloves 1 TBSP fennel seeds 1 TBSP coriander seeds   FOR SERVING: Pho noodles Beef balls (bo vien) Whites of scallion Scallion, cilantro, thinly sliced onions, bean sprouts, thai basil, cilantro, lime, rice paddy herbs, etc   1.   On your stove top, par boil oxtail.
