Yöntemler

In a dutch oven or large stew pot, cover beef cubes with 8 cups of water, and bring to a boil

Once boiling, bring down to a simmer and use a skimmer, ladle, slotted spoon, or what you can find to remove the…*ahem*…”scum”…that floats to the surface

Simmer meat for 15 minutes, then add sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar, then cover pot and continue simmering on low for 1 hour

Meanwhile, peel and cut your ginger and cut into matchsticks, roughly slice onion (if using), cut your potatoes into bite-sized cubes, and peel and slice carrots and parsnip (or turnip) into 1 inch slices

After the meat has simmered for 1 hour, add parsnip or turnip, and continue simmering for another 30 minutes

After 30 minutes, pull out just the beef from the pot and, using a fork, shred your beef into smaller pieces, then return to pot

Add in ginger, potatoes, and carrots to pot and continue simmering covered for 20-30 minutes (until vegetables are soft and cooked through)
