CINNAMON BEEF NOODLE SOUP

Packaged stewing beef is often made up of irregularly shaped pieces from different cuts, so I cut my own stew meat using a boneless chuck roast or two 3/4-inch-thick chuck steaks.

Yield 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tsp. peanut or vegetable oil
3 cinnamon sticks (about 3 inches each)
6 scallions, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces
6 cloves garlic, smashed
2 Tbs. minced fresh ginger
1-1/2 tsp. anise seeds
1-1/2 tsp. Asian chile paste
7 cups water
4 cups homemade or canned low-salt chicken broth
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2-1/2 lb. boneless beef chuck, trimmed and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
9 oz. fresh udon noodles (or 6 oz. dried)
1- to 1-1/2-lb. bunch bok choy, bottom trimmed, stalks washed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. When very hot, add the cinnamon, scallions, garlic, ginger, anise seeds, and chile paste; cook, stirring, for 1-min. Add the water, broth, soy sauce, and vinegar; bring to a boil over high heat. Add the meat and bring to a vigorous simmer. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, partially covered, until the meat is very tender, about 1-1/2 hours, checking to be sure that the soup doesn't boil or stop simmering.
  • Shortly before the soup is done, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the package directions until just tender. Drain and rinse under cold water.
  • When the meat is tender, remove the cinnamon sticks. Add the bok choy to the soup and simmer until the stalks are crisp tender and the greens are very tender, 5 to 10 min. Stir in the noodles and let them warm through. Serve immediately, garnished with the cilantro leaves.

CHINESE CINNAMON BEEF NOODLE SOUP



Chinese Cinnamon Beef Noodle Soup image

This was published in a Fine Cooking magazine a couple of years ago. I was so excited to have found a relatively easy yet very flavorful noodle soup for my family. My husband (the ultimate food critic) loves this and doesn't mind eating it for days. He says it reminds him of when he was in Taiwan. High praise, indeed! Packaged stewing beef is often made up of irregularly shaped pieces from different cuts, so I cut my own stew meat using a boneless chuck roast or two 3/4 inch thick chuck steaks.

  • I'm guessing on the serving size as I no longer follow the recipe. I use the ingredient list as a guide.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Scotch     Beef     Ginger     Pasta     Turnip     Anise     Cinnamon     Clove     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 pounds beef short ribs, cut between bones into pieces
7 cups water
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Scotch or medium-dry Sherry
1 tablespoon sugar
six 1/4-inch-thick diagonal slices fresh gingerroot
8 scallions, trimmed
3 large garlic cloves, chopped
a 3-inch cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon aniseed
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/2 pound turnips, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
6 ounces egg noodles
1 teaspoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil if desired

Steps:

  • In a heavy kettle (at least 5 quarts) combine short ribs, water, soy sauce, Scotch, and sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and skim froth. Add gingerroot, 5 scallions, flattened with the side of a large knife, garlic, cinnamon, aniseed, and pepper flakes and simmer, covered, 2 hours, or until rib meat is tender. Let ribs cool, uncovered, in broth 30 minutes and transfer with a slotted spoon to a cutting board. Chop meat, discarding fat and bones.
  • Strain broth through a fine sieve into a large saucepan and add chopped meat. If finishing and serving soup immediately, spoon off fat. For best results, chill soup, covered, overnight and discard fat.
  • Add turnips and simmer, covered 10 minutes. Add noodles and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 7 minutes. Soup may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead (cool uncovered before chilling covered). Reheat gently.
  • Slice remaining 3 scallions thin and stir into soup. Stir in sesame oil (if using).

BEEF NOODLE SOUP



Beef Noodle Soup image

This is a northern Chinese dish. It comes from Ken Hom's Chinese Cookery published in 1984, one of the Chinese Cook books I like to use. All the recipes come out. I intend to cook this in my slow cooker for a starter at a Chinese dinner party. Use a really cheap cut of meat for this, good cuts of meat will have insufficient flavor and will be too dry.

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: Use a type of noodle that will hold up well in the soup, such as ramen noodles, udon noodles, or soba noodles.
  • Brown the beef: Browning the beef before adding it to the soup will give it a richer flavor.
  • Use a good quality cinnamon stick: The cinnamon stick is what gives this soup its unique flavor, so it's important to use a good quality one.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
  • Serve the soup hot: This soup is best served hot, so make sure to reheat it if you have any leftovers.

Conclusion:

Chinese cinnamon beef noodle soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold night. The beef is tender and flavorful, the vegetables are crisp and refreshing, and the broth is rich and savory. This soup is also a great way to use up leftover beef. So next time you have some leftover beef, give this soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
