Step 1
Step 1
1
Bring a pot of water to a boil, put the beef cubes in to boil. While boiling, skim off the foam. Keep the stove at high heat until the water boils again. Then take out the beef briskets. This step is to wash out the meat blood and fishy smell. (Take your time when you boil the meat. If the time is too short, meat blood can not be completely drained and it will taste raw.)

(when you add water to simmer the ingredients, make sure to add enough water at the beginning. it is better to not have to add more cold water halfway. Otherwise, the dish will not taste good.)

It is better to choose a beef brisket flat that is half tender and half beef. If the meat is too lean, it will taste too dry.
Final Notes
Final Notes
Feature: streaky beef brisket that mingles fat and meat perfectly. Smells good and the soup is rich and thick. The meat is very tender due to the tomatoes. It tastes sour and sweet, juicy and delicious.
