The Best Hong Kong Beef Brisket Noodle Soup!

What makes a good beef brisket noodle soup? The beef brisket has to be well cooked to perfection! Soft, tender, does not require effort to chew on them, with all the flavors and aroma of the broth infused into the meat fibers. Speaking of this, makes me drool.

Aromatic Beef Brisket Soup

To achieve an aromatic beef brisket soup, we will be needing spices and one special flavoring that many wouldn’t think of.

The spices are;

  • Cumin
  • Clove
  • Star Anise
  • Cardamon Pods
  • Cinnamon
  • Galangal

And lastly, the special flavoring that would make all the differences is Fish Sauce, don’t worry about the fishy scent, they tend to balance the aroma of the spices and beef very well.

Notes

Cooking tips

  • The purpose of blanching the beef brisket first and cutting after is to ensure that the beef brisket stays nicely in cubes size throughout the cooking process. Otherwise, if we skip the blanching part and go straight into cutting, the end result of the beef brisket would look rather distorted.
