Beef biscuits

Beef-stuffed sesame cake is quite famous in Henan Province. A piece of soft and crispy pancake with delicious beef in it is simply fascinating. From the appearance, it is golden in color, crispy and sweet. Usually a piece of beef is placed in a freshly baked pancake and topped with a special sauce. But the specific method is not that simple. From baking the sesame cakes to making the gravy, it is a science. Next, I will briefly introduce the method of making beef stuffed buns.

Material:

About 1000g of beef, water, 100g of sweet bean paste or dry yellow paste, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1.5 tablespoons of dark soy sauce, 50g of crushed rock sugar, 5 bay leaves, 1 piece of cinnamon, 2-3 star anise, 5 cardamoms, 1 teaspoon of pepper, 1 teaspoon of fennel, 2 grass fruits, 1 clove, 5-10 dried chilies, 3 tablespoons of salad oil, and several small sesame seed cakes.

practice:

1. Cut the beef ribs into pieces the size of a child's fist. The tendons can be left whole or cut into large pieces. Put them in a large basin and soak them in clean water for at least 1 hour, changing the water while soaking. The longer the better, soak out the blood in the beef until the water is clear.

2. Put the beef in cold water and heat it over medium-low heat until it is almost boiling. Adjust the heat to maintain the state. Use a large soup spoon to continuously skim off the blood foam until the blood foam is completely gone and the soup is clear.

3. Take out the beef and rinse it with warm water; clarify or filter the soup and keep it for later use;

4. Prepare all the spices. Crack the cardamom with the back of a knife. You don't need to put the chili pepper. It doesn't matter if you don't have so many spices. It's almost the same if you have peppercorns, star anise and cardamom. Rinse them under running water for a while, then dry them with kitchen paper.

5. Put sweet noodle sauce, soy sauce, dark soy sauce and crushed rock sugar into a small bowl, mix well and set aside. Choose the sauce according to your taste;

6. Add salad oil to the wok, add all the spices, stir-fry over low heat until fragrant, then add the sauce;

7. Continue to stir-fry over low heat until the rock sugar is completely melted and the sauce is thick. Add the beef and stir-fry until the beef is evenly coated with the sauce.

8. Add the original soup for blanching beef, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer for at least an hour and a half. Do not open the pot lid after turning off the heat and simmer overnight.

9. Use a stew pot to stew the food, which will keep the food warmer and make it more tender. During the stewing process, you can skim off the floating oil; 10. When eating the next day, heat the stewed meat, chop the beef into small pieces on the table, and add 1 to 2 spoons of the stewed beef soup when chopping the meat; .

11. Cut the freshly baked or heated sesame cakes from the side, keeping the edges intact;

12. Put the minced beef into the sesame cake and serve. If you can’t finish the meal at once, seal the meat and soup together and refrigerate or freeze it.
