Chinese Cinnamon Beef Noodle Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Cut beef chuck into 3/4 in thick chunks if you did not purchase precut stewing beef.
• Heat the oil in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. When very hot, add the cinnamon, scallions, garlic, ginger, anise seeds, and chile paste; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Add the water, broth, soy sauce, and vinegar; bring to boil over high heat.
• Add the meat and bring to vigorous simmer. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, partially covered, until the meat is very tender, about 1 1/2 hours, checking to be sure that the soup doesn''t boil or stop simmering.
• Shortly before the soup is done, bring a large pot of water to boil. Cook the noodles according to package directions until just tender. Drain and rinse under cold water.
• When the meat is tender, remove the cinnamon sticks. Add the bok choy to the soup and simmer until the stalks are crisp-tender and the greens are very tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the noodles and let them warm through. Serve immediately, garnished with the cilantro leaves.
• I'm guessing on the serving size as I no longer follow the recipe. I use the ingredient list as a guide.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium high heat, saute the stew meat, onion and celery for 5 minutes, or until meat is browned on all sides.
• Stir in the bouillon, parsley, ground black pepper, carrots, water and egg noodles. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a heavy kettle (at least 5 quarts) combine short ribs, water, soy sauce, Scotch, and sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and skim froth. Add gingerroot, 5 scallions, flattened with the side of a large knife, garlic, cinnamon, aniseed, and pepper flakes and simmer, covered, 2 hours, or until rib meat is tender. Let ribs cool, uncovered, in broth 30 minutes and transfer with a slotted spoon to a cutting board. Chop meat, discarding fat and bones.
• Strain broth through a fine sieve into a large saucepan and add chopped meat. If finishing and serving soup immediately, spoon off fat. For best results, chill soup, covered, overnight and discard fat.
• Add turnips and simmer, covered 10 minutes. Add noodles and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 7 minutes. Soup may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead (cool uncovered before chilling covered). Reheat gently.
• Slice remaining 3 scallions thin and stir into soup. Stir in sesame oil (if using).

Steps:

• Cut the meat into 2 inch cubes.
• Combine the meat cubes with the other ingredients except the noodles in a large pot.
• Bring the mixture to the boil and then lower the heat to a simmer.
• Skim any scum or fat off the surface for the first 15 minutes.
• Then transfer to the slow cooker and cook for 5 - 6 hours or until the meat is tender.
• Cook the noodles for 3-5 minutes in a pot of boiling hot water.
• Put them in cold water until you are ready to use them.
• When the meat is tender, drain the noodles, put them into the pot and let them warm through.
• Ladle some meat, broth and noodles into individual serving bowls.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the beef, in batches, and lightly brown.
• When all of the meat has browned add the red chili flakes, and then readd the meat back into the pot. Add the chicken broth, water, soy sauce and light brown sugar.
• Bring the liquid to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 hours. I usually skim the "guck" that comes to the surface the first 20 minutes.
• When ready to eat, boil the noodles in salted boiling water until tender. Drain.
• Add the cooked noodles to the soup, add the salt and garnish with the green onions. (I sometimes add a little bit of garlic powder to the soup while I'm waiting for the noodles to cook.
• Serve at once.
• If you don't want the noodles to eventually drink up all of the broth, do not add the noodles to the soup. Instead, put the desired amount of noodles in the bottom of each soup bowl and cover with the soup.

Steps:

• In large stockpot over medium high heat, saute the stew meat, onion, celery, green pepper, garlic and carrots in butter for 5 minutes, or until meat is browned on all sides.
• Or if using leftover roast, saute until vegetables are tender.
• Stir in the bouillon, cabbage, remaining seasonings, beef broth, tomato juice and diced tomatoes.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover partially, and simmer for 45 minutes.
• Add noodles and simmer for another 20 minutes.
• Discard bay leaves before serving.

Steps:

• Cut beef into very thin strips. In a bowl, combine beef with soy sauce. (I added some crushed red pepper -- love the spice).
• In a large saucepan over high heat, bring stock, ginger and garlic to a boil. Add vermicelli; boil for 2 minutes or until softened. Add beef, carrots and cabbage.
• Return to a boil; cook for another 2 minutes. Add bean sprouts and cook for 1 minute or until heated through.
• Ladle into bowls; garnish with cilantro and chopped green onions. Drizzle with sesame oil, if desired.
