Beef stew, what I learned from the Northwest people is authentic, 4 put 3 don't put it, and the beef crispy soup is clear and delicious



The stewed beef pays attention to the clear soup, the taste is positive, the meat is crispy and fragrant, and then add some green onions, or garlic sprouts, or coriander beautiful green hijab, the appearance and taste immediately rise to a new level, take a bowl while it is hot, the taste is mellow and the meat is fragrant and the stomach is comfortable, and the feeling of extreme enjoyment.


First of all, let's talk about what seasonings you can't put in the consommé beef.

First, do not put cooking wine, and resolutely do not put it.

Many people may not know that whether beef is stewed or boiled, real chefs will not actually put cooking wine.

Because if you put cooking wine, there will be two inappropriateness: first, if you put cooking wine, the meat will get older and older the more you cook; Second, cooking wine has a bad taste, which will greatly weaken the aroma of the broth.

Therefore, if you stew beef in clear soup, if you put cooking wine, it is a big mistake.

The chef of our family's beef noodle restaurant said that cooking wine is not in the soup of beef noodles and clear soup.

In the same way, cooking wine should not be used to make clear soup, beef stew, radish and the like.

Not only beef in clear soup, but also other broths, such as fish soup, chicken soup, pork rib soup, mutton soup, and duck soup, should not be served with cooking wine.

In other words, don't take cooking wine as a universal seasoning to remove the fishy smell, put it in everything, cooking wine is generally used in cooking techniques such as braised and dry stir-frying.

Second, the blanched water cannot be replayed.


If you want the soup to be clear and you can see the bottom of the bowl, you must blanch the water, and you must not be lazy.

After blanching, the blood in it can be completely forced out, and some unclean minced meat foam floating on the meat that is difficult to wash off will also slip away with the boiling water.

Therefore, make a clear beef stew with blanching water. I've also seen someone blanch beef and radish soup twice, and it's really good after trying it, but the time for blanching each time is relatively short. However, in general, blanching once is sufficient.

However, the blanched water should no longer be used as the original soup to stew this dish, and what should be poured out should be discarded, don't feel that it is wasteful, let alone pursue the original method, there is no need.


Third, you can't put a lot of spices and spices.


I am afraid that the most important thing is to put seasonings, and the most taboo thing about stewed beef soup is to put all kinds of ingredients, for example, such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, etc., these spices with strong spices can not be put in. You can put a little peppercorn, but not too much.

Why can't I enlarge the material? Because this is not making red stewed beef brisket, nor is it making marinated beef in sauce, but stewed, the distinction between them is still obvious, and the taste pursued is not the same. In addition, if you put a lot of ingredients, the color of the soup of the clear soup will also turn black, and it will be difficult to stew the refreshing feeling of the clear bottom, not to mention the taste, too much seasoning flavor will completely ruin a good soup.


The above is the "three don't let go" that we especially want to emphasize, and when you make this dish in the future, you must remember to do it, and you won't be wrong.

Now, let's talk about it again. So what kind of seasoning should I put in it?

First, fresh ginger must be put.

Why do you have to put some ginger in the stew, the benefits are needless to say, mainly used to remove the fishy smell and increase the umami.

In addition, from the perspective of nutrition, ginger contains volatile gingerolone and gingerol, which have a series of good effects such as blood activation, cold dispelling, dehumidification, and sweating.

Therefore, there is a saying in the market that "prepare small ginger at home, don't panic when you are sick", as well as the smooth mouth of "eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, and don't work for doctors to prescribe medicine", and there is also the praise of "going out with a piece of ginger, always keeping healthy".

Therefore, to make a stew of beef and radish, it is necessary to put ginger.


Second, put an appropriate amount of white pepper (powder) before cooking.


In addition, beef and pepper are a perfect match.

However, this pepper does not need to be eaten for breakfast, and it is okay to put it before it comes out of the pan.

Also, it is best to put white pepper.


Third, after putting the bowl in a bowl, you must put chopped green onions or green garlic seedlings, and you can also add some coriander to double the umami.


In addition to salt, ginger and white pepper (powder), the beef and soup are served in a bowl at the end, and a pinch of chopped green onion or garlic sprouts are sprinkled on top, which is definitely the finishing touch and indispensable part of the beef stew.

There is a big difference between putting and not putting it, one put, the taste of fresh ginger, the taste of pepper, the taste of shredded green onions, the three things are fused together, that is called a delicious mile.

As for coriander, there is no need to put it, but putting a little bit is definitely the icing on the cake.


Fourth, stewed beef in clear soup, it is recommended to stew it with radish, which can instantly enhance the deliciousness of beef broth.


What other seasonings do you need to put in addition? No need to put it anymore.

However, radish and clear soup beef are a perfect match, so when stewing stewed beef, it is recommended to add some radish slices 15 minutes before cooking, which can not only relieve greasy and fresh to a large extent and produce an extremely refreshing taste, but also make radish edible and appetizing!

The above is our recommended "4 puts" when stewing beef in clear soup, please be sure to remember!
