『 Ushi no Akawain Nikomi | Stewed Beef w. Red Wine 』
Hi everyone, I'm MASA
This time I would like to share a very tasty
Japanese style of Western Cuisine to you all
It's called Gyoniku Akawain Nikomi
In Mandarin it's called "Hong Jiu Dun Niu Rou"
This dish is originally French cuisine
used red wine to stew beef & require long cooking time
This time I'm going to use Japanese seasoning
a slightly modified version of Japanese style Western cuisine
The taste can be matched with bread or rice, which is very suitable
Alright ! Let's do it !
Alright ! I'm going to use this * Beef finger rib - 500gm
This type of meat can be stew for a long time
the taste of the beef stew is smooth & tender
If you don't eat beef, can replace it with pork
If is use chicken, can choose drumstick
which is also suitable
* cut into edible sizes
* Salt & Black pepper - some
* Rosemary or Italian herbs - some
* marinate roughly 15 minutes
* Beech white mushroom - 1/2 bag
* peeling into small pieces
* Maitake mushroom - 1/2 bag
* cut into small pieces
* Onion - 1/2 piece
* cut into pieces
* Carrot - roughly 60gm
* roll cut
* Garlic - 2~3 pieces
* finely sliced
* Canned tomatoes - 400gm
# This time I'm using Italian peeled tomatoes
# Can use fresh tomatoes but remember to peel them !
* put into juicer, blend until puréeing
* medium-high heat
* Butter - 1 teaspoon
* add the sliced vegetables
* stir fry onions until to translucent
* add the sliced mushrooms
# After added the mushrooms, fry until golden brown
# Stir fry until to aromatic !
Alright ! Next I'm going to take this marinated beef
put it into stew pot
I personally prefer the outer skin is
slightly golden brown & aromatic
And I want to keep the meat juice
so I'll add the flour first & stir well
make sure every piece of meat is keep the meat juice
Is it low gluten flour or bread flour?
I'll suggest use bread flour
because bread flour is not easy to be agglomeration
it can be easily wrap it up every piece of meat
Take a look, I'm holding it
the flour is easily to disperse
hmm
Because it's easy to disperse
each piece of meat can be evenly coat with flour
* Bread flour - 2~3 tablespoons
# Make sure every piece of meat evenly coat with flour, don't stick together
* medium-high heat
* add in oil
* meat evenly place in the pan
* fry until golden brown
* can turn over !
* on the other side also fry until golden brown
# Out of sudden to recall I've a nice Whisky at home, decided to add in
* Alcohol is easy to ignite, please beware of fire !!
# Can be use Brandy. Of course it's OK if is without !
* Red wine - 200cc
* pour into stew pot
* add the puréeing tomatoes
* Rosemary - some
* Salt & Black pepper - some
# Just add a little basic seasoning because later on still have to add others
* cook over low heat around 30 minutes
# If there's less water in stew, add some water ~ !
Alright ! It's almost time
The flavoring part is to look at your habits
Basically there's only salt & black pepper for seasoning
This time I'm going add more for flavoring
so I'll add some seasoning
* Honey - 2 teaspoons
# The sweetness of honey can be neutralize the acidity of the tomato taste
And my secret ingredient is Hatcho miso
This miso is came from Nagoya
and the color is very dark
add this miso can bring out another flavor
You can use general miso
if you don't want to add miso
can be use soy sauce also
Don't add too much of these seasonings
obviously can taste the miso flavor
it's easy to get greasy
and it will become taste like miso soup
I'm not going to add much of this miso
just add little bit only
and can replace of salty taste
* Hatcho miso - 1/2 tablespoon
* add some water & stir well
* drench some whipped cream / * Rosemary for garnished
OK ~ A tasty looking good stew beef with red wine are done
Oh ~
Pretty ~
I can't wait anymore, just eat it
Dewa Itadakimasu ~
Hmm ~ !!
The meat is so tender !
The meat was pan fried
so can smell the aroma after tasting
inside is very tender
I've used salt, black pepper & rosemary for marinated
so inside is very tasty
I only used tomatoes puree for sauce paste
This type of sauce can bring out of rich flavor
it's just a right taste for this
and also added little bit of miso
the taste not so obvious
and there's still extra flavor for the taste
Will feel satisfied when eat it with bread or rice
Can be use other seasonings
like soy sauce, oyster sauce or fish sauce
bring out rich flavor when match with these type of sauce
Well, feel free please try on it ~ ! Thank you !
