5. 5

   Cover the pot and simmer gently for 60 minutes, or until the beef is very tender when pierced with a fork.

   約1 時間

   調理のヒント： Do not boil rapidly; a gentle simmer prevents the beef from becoming tough.

6. 6

   Remove the pot from the heat and let the beef cool completely in the braising liquid.

   約1 時間

   調理のヒント： Allowing the beef to cool in the liquid helps it absorb more flavor and stay moist.

7. 7

   Once cool, transfer the beef to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, still in the liquid.

   約1 時間

   調理のヒント： Chilling the beef makes it much easier to slice thinly.

8. 8

   When ready to serve, remove the beef from the liquid and slice it very thinly against the grain.

   約5 分

   調理のヒント： Use a sharp knife for the best results.

9. 9
