1. For braised beef, you must buy the whole beef shank. I ordered one at the beef stall in the vegetable market one day in advance. The fascia must be intact and the beef must be dry. Soggy... don't buy it. This beef tendon weighs one and a half catties and I think the weight is just right.

2. The beef must be fragrant and free of odors, and the blood must be blanched. It takes an hour and a half to blanch the water to reach the standard. 5 liters of cold water, put the whole beef tendon into the pot, 3 sprigs of shallots washed and knotted, 4 slices of ginger, 30ML cooking wine (that is, 2 spoons of Chinese single porcelain spoon). After the high heat is boiled, turn to medium heat, open the lid and keep it boiling until the beef is inserted with fine chopsticks and no more blood is boiled out. (Open the lid all the way, and the pot of water will be used later, so add enough water at a time.)

10. Refrigerating beef overnight will be more conducive to the evenness of the aroma. You can always use the brine. Next time you use it to marinate the tea and eggs, you can add another marinade bag. The soup will continue to add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce. The amount you add depends on how salty it tastes.
