Tip van de kok: Do not boil rapidly; a gentle simmer prevents the beef from becoming tough.

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

Tip van de kok: Allowing the beef to cool in the liquid helps it absorb more flavor and stay moist.

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