[Braised Ox Tail]: Suitable for all ages and rich in nutrients
Overview
Oxtail is the most active part of the cow. It has more bones and muscles and less fat. It is rich in colloid and has extremely high nutritional value. It is suitable for consumption by all kinds of people, especially the elderly and children. Carrots are very rich in vitamins and minerals. The carotene contained in it can treat night blindness, protect the respiratory tract and promote the growth of children if consumed regularly. Braised beef with carrots is a popular classic home-cooked dish. Combining carrots with oxtails can also achieve the same effect. It can not only use vegetables to absorb the oil in oxtails, but also promote the absorption of carotene, making the taste and nutrition more balanced. Because there are many bones in the oxtail, it needs to be simmered for a long time. I usually like to stew the oxtail until it's basically crispy, then take it out, season it, and simmer it again until it's delicious. In this way, you can not only get the thick white and delicious oxtail soup, but also eat the rich and mellow oxtail meat. It is really two birds with one stone, it is beautiful~~
