Braised Beef with Double Sauce
1.
Prepare the ingredients
2.
I opened the package and found that the beef tendon had been cut open
3.
Soak the beef tendon in cold water, change the water halfway, and wash and drain if there is not too much blood overflow.
4.
Heat oil in a pot and sauté the scallions, star anise and other seasonings, then serve

Save the base oil and add the bean paste and Pixian bean paste
6.
Stir out the red oil and add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce to thicken
7.
Add some water and rock sugar to a boil
8.
Put the beef tendon and the freshly sauteed seasoning
9.
Put the cooking wine in the lid and boil, there is not much blood foam in the pot
10.
Then pour the broth into the electric pressure cooker (PS: pressure cooker can also be used, I think it’s easier and faster to stew this way)
11.
Stamp start beef and mutton program
12.
Finish opening the top cover and look: the chopsticks are easily poked down, soak them and let them cool, then remove them and put them in the refrigerator overnight
13.
It is easy to slice after cold shrinking, don't like too spicy food directly
14.
If you like the spicy one, you can add it with spicy sauce. Both flavors are delicious.
Tips:
1. The beef tendon should be soaked for a long time before marinating, so the excess blood and fishy smell can be soaked.
2. The soaked beef tendon is directly marinated without flying water, which can maintain the original taste and tenderness of the beef.
3. Stir red bean paste and Pixian bean paste first, then add soy sauce to cook together, soy sauce can fully release its unique umami flavor when meeting with cooked oil
4. Doubanjiang and Pixian Doubanjiang are full of saltiness and umami, so I didn't add salt and MSG in the marinating.
