Miso-Braised Beef with King Mushrooms

Servings:

As much as I love a traditional beef stew, or braised beef short ribs, I like to shake things up sometimes by applying the same techniques to a few non-traditional ingredients. This melt-in-your-mouth, miso-braised beef dish is cold-weather comfort food at its finest. Miso adds an extra-savory element, balanced with a touch of maple syrup, which further enhances the autumnal feel. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Season beef with cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and pepper.
  2. 2 Heat peanut oil in a pan over high heat. Add beef and brown for 3 minutes on each side. Turn off the heat and transfer beef to a plate.
  3. 3 Let the pan cool slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add butter and melt butter in the residual heat. Turn the heat to medium and add mushrooms, cut-sides down. Cook until mushrooms are light brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add onion and season with salt; cook onion until slightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. 4 Pour sake into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in chicken broth, miso, maple syrup, and ketchup, and bring to a simmer. Add browned beef, mushrooms, and any accumulated mushroom juices.
  5. 5 Reduce the heat to low or medium-low, cover, and simmer until meat is fork-tender, 2 to 3 hours, turning beef halfway through cooking time.
  6. 6 Stir in green onions, chile pepper, and vinegar. Cover and cook for 5 minutes more. Taste and adjust seasonings.
