Cooking StepsHow to cook Cold Tossed Beef with Spicy Chili Sauce (Appetizing, Perfect with Drinks or Rice) step by step

  1. Cold Tossed Beef with Spicy Chili Sauce (Appetizing, Perfect with Drinks or Rice)
    Step 1 Detail

    Soak beef shank in cold water for 1 hour to remove blood. Transfer to a pot of cold water, add star anise, cinnamon, bay leaf, and cooking wine. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for 60 minutes. Transfer the cooked beef to ice water and soak for 10 minutes (this firms up the meat so slices hold together). Let cool completely, then slice thinly against the grain.
