Features:

The meat is tender, the sauce is rich, easy to make at home, classic and delicious.

Key point:

When choosing beef brisket flat which is half-lean and half-gluten, avoid too much lean meat which would taste very dry.

Key point:

The beef brisket flat takes a little longer to boil in the water in the first step, so that the blood can be removed as much as possible.

Key point:

The seasoning should be fry until as fragrant as possible, and the water should be added at a time to prevent adding water in the middle to reduce the umami taste.

Key point:

In the end, it is better to thicken the soup, which is suitable for bibimbap.
