👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Prepare the bones: Place the beef bones in a large stockpot and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat for 10-15 minutes. You will see a lot of scum and impurities rise to the surface. Drain the bones in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to remove all the scum. Clean the stockpot.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 2
First simmer (clarifying): Return the cleaned bones to the clean stockpot. Add the beef brisket (if cooking in the broth), optional garlic cloves, and ginger. Cover generously with fresh cold water (about 5-6 liters). Bring to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface for the first hour. Cover partially and let it simmer gently.
⏱️ 2-3 hours - 3
Second simmer (flavor and color development): After the initial simmer, remove the brisket if you cooked it in the broth (set aside to cool and slice later). Discard the garlic and ginger. Add more fresh cold water if the water level has significantly reduced. Continue to simmer the bones on the lowest possible heat, partially covered, for another 10-21 hours. The goal is a rich, opaque, milky white broth. Check occasionally and skim any excess fat if desired, though some fat contributes to richness. The longer it simmers, the deeper the flavor and whiter the broth.
⏱️ 10-21 hours - 4
Strain the broth: Once the broth has reached the desired milky white color and richness, carefully strain it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean pot or container. Discard the bones. You can chill the broth and scrape off any solidified fat from the surface if you prefer a leaner soup, but some fat is desirable for flavor.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 5
Prepare the meat and scallions: If you cooked the brisket in the broth, slice it thinly against the grain. If you cooked it separately, slice it thinly. Slice the white and light green parts of the scallions thinly for garnish. You can also chop some of the darker green parts for a more intense onion flavor in the broth.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 6
Assemble and serve: Reheat the strained broth until simmering. Ladle the hot broth into individual serving bowls. Add a portion of the thinly sliced brisket and a small amount of cooked rice to each bowl. Garnish generously with the sliced scallions. Serve immediately with salt and freshly ground black pepper on the side, allowing each person to season their soup to their liking. Offer optional garnishes like kimchi or pickled radish.
