●SIMMERED BEEF WITH
MAITAKE MUSHROOMS
-----Maitake to Gyuuniku no shoyu ni

<Ingredients(for four)>
300g maitake mushrooms
150g beef
5 cups niban dashi
5 tablespoon 'tamari' soy sauce
*Tamari is a thick liquid that has a stronger flavor
than usual soy sauce even
though it is made from soybeans. The strong flavor
is gained through
fermenting and culturing the beans.
2 tablespoons salt pickled prickly ash
1)Place the maitake mushroom, and beef in a pan and
pour the niban dashi.
Then heat them all together at once.
2)When it comes to a boil, carefully remove the scum
from the surface
and simmer slowly until the liquid reduced to almost
nothing.
