Braised Beef Tendon

Braised Beef Tendon

Overview

In a blink of an eye, the New Year is coming again, so fast! During the Chinese New Year, there is one dish that is indispensable, and that is braised beef. Of course, there are many cooked ones sold outside, but I like to eat home-braised ones because we make them ourselves and know exactly what we put in them, so we can eat them with confidence. I'm using my old braised pork soup again. This year is the 11th year. Although it doesn't have the qualifications of other people's century-old soup, to paraphrase Zhen Huan, the taste is excellent!
