{"id":28150,"title":"Shredded beef noodles","modified":"2025-05-29T10:54:04+02:00","plain":"During winter, sometimes you just want something warm and comforting that doesn't require spending a ton of time standing in the kitchen (with sometimes icy tiles).\n\n\n\nI love noodles and I love beef bourguignon, so why not make a sort of Asian hybrid with Chinese inspiration?\n\n\n\nMaking the pulled beef noodles\n\n\n\nWe start by making an Asian pulled beef with ingredients such as Shaoxing wine or dark soy sauce. \n\n\n\nAll of this will simmer in broth (ideally homemade) for some time until it's tender enough to shred at the slightest touch of a fork. Appetizing, isn't it? \n\n\n\nIt's important to remove the beef from the pot into a separate bowl to shred it. Why? Because we want to concentrate all the remaining juice as much as possible to achieve an intense flavor. \n\n\n\nWant a quicker recipe? Try my quick beef noodles \n\n\n\nAs the recipe doesn't have many components, it's important to enhance each ingredient. And the ultra-flavorful sauce is an integral part of the dish \n\n\n\nAfter these steps, we have a classic stir-fry where we add sesame oil for its aroma, onions, garlic if you like, or even MSG. \n\n\n\nQuick tip: after cooking the noodles for stir-frying, immediately rinse them in cold water to stop the cooking process. This also firms them up, making them perfect for stir-frying\n\n\n\nIngredients for pulled beef noodles\n\n\n\nAs usual, in this section I'll explain a bit about the why and how of the ingredients used in the recipe\n\n\n\nThe beef: Here, it's better to use stewing beef, brisket, chuck, ..., any long cooking cut. Don't waste a prime cut for this recipe \n\n\n\nShaoxing wine: Can be replaced with sherry but it really adds something extra, so don't hesitate to invest if you haven't already. The Amazon link is in the recipe. \n\n\n\nDark soy sauce: Not to be confused with light soy sauce, it can be found in all Asian shops and sometimes in supermarkets, but that's rare. \n\n\n\n\n\n\tShredded beef noodles\n\t\t\n\t\tA delicious recipe for shredded beef noodles  \t\n\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\n\t\tShredded beef400 g   of beef (carbonnade style)6 tablespoons   of Shaoxing wine  3 tablespoons   dark soy sauce  1   pinch of salt4   crushed garlic cloves250 ml   of chicken broth (add water to almost completely cover the beef)Noodles400 g of cooked noodles2 sliced onions3 tablespoons   dark soy sauce  1 pinch of salt2 tablespoons   of sesame oil  \t\n\t\n\t\t  Put all the beef ingredients in a covered pot, cover and simmer for 1 hour over medium heat or until the beef shreds  Remove the beef, shred it with a fork and let the sauce reduce for 5 minutes over high heat  Remove from heat and mix the beef back in  In a wok with a little oil, stir-fry the onions over high heat for 3 minutes  Add the noodles and mix, add the dark soy sauce, sesame oil and salt  Add the shredded beef mixture and mix  \t\n\t\n\t\tYou need to be patient and wait for the beef to become tender.
