The general production method of beef covered cake: 1, using 3 kg of beef, selecting the upper brain part, then slicing, knotting onion, soy sauce, star anise, nutmeg, Amomum villosum, dried hawthorn and dried longan, and putting them into about 5 liters of stock mixed with Meiji chicken essence. 2. Drop a little northern white wine on the beef slices and cook. 1 hour high fire, 2 hours medium fire, small fire to keep boiling. 3. At this time, if you want to eat the covered cakes in the north, you can shred the tender onions, then find the dry pancakes at home, put the shredded onions in a big spoon, eat them in the broth, and code the cakes. Then take out some pieces of beef and pour the broth on it. This is an authentic beef covered cake. Most people in Baoding like fried Xiaohong. I found that it is also good to mix melon strips according to Shanghai taste (this kind of soup will be used in many things in the future, so it can be cooked more, and it is very easy to preserve, and it will improve the quality of the soup every time it is used. But compared with the traditional practice in Baoding, we have no conditions to catch up with them. They usually simmer whole cattle 1 month to make soup. People who like vegetable rice will taste better than ordinary ones if they chop the meat slices and cook with chopped rape or cabbage. It's super delicious with fried Chili sauce and flat-headed duck.
