Asian Beef Noodle Soup cont.

Oh yeah in case you dont know what a chinese white raddish looks like it's usually whitish with light green at one end. That looks like an over grown radish about 5 to 6 times bigger than a regular raddish actually. So you dont have to chop in the whole thing just about as much as the carrots. So on to the spices. You will need some sherry salt, pepper, if you like spicy then some red chili flakes or red peppers the small spicy kind or even jalapeneos.

Next of course onions about two fist sized ones will do. And with asian twist instead of just celery put in just a couple of stalks. Chop up a chinese white raddish. Usually in the ethinic bin of your fresh vegatable section next to the spices and mushrooms. With all of these ingrediants what we are trying to get out of them is sweetness. That way it not only tastes good it's healthy too.

So first the ingrediants. What you are gonna need is first and foremost beef bones spine and leg bones if you can get them tail bones are decent also about 6 to 7 big pieces will do nicely. Next carrots 3 big thick ones chopped. It's better to get the big ugly ones cause usually it means they are grown in the soil instead of water. Means they taste good actually it's a good idea to get all root vegetables from soil grown.

Most of the places that specialize in this dish use the soup as a base for the next batch and just keep on adding ingrediants. All of the most famous places have bases that have supposedly lasted for 50 or even 100 years. So I have modified my base with french style cooking of 4 days still a long time but a darn sight shorter than a month.

My version of this dish is limited by two things. One place since I'm in the US I can't get all the ingrediants I need. Two time usually this base or soup is cooked for an extremely long period of time. Were talking a month minimum. With beef bones and fat and tendons and all the other ingrediants till it is anywhere close to the right taste.

For those that know chinese culture. This is actually a pretty new concept of a dish only maybe 50 so years have people been widely eating beef noodle soup. At least with the actual meat as the main ingrediant in the dish not the noodle or soup. Since Chinese people used to not really eat beef only the desperate and extremely rich ate beef. Since the water buffalo was used to farm. Until it died which by that time, the meat is not really good to eat.
thanks for the cooking tips!

Now that's just the basic you can do a combination of everything else. Like using cranberry jellatin instead or banana pudding and chocolate instead of the cream cheese. Or add fruit in the middle of the mix half way through cooking. Or putting fruit topping after it finished cooking. Your imagination is the limit.

If you had done all this in one step the oven should be preheated by now. If not preheat the oven to 300 and bake for 50 min. When your done throw the cheesecake in the frig. and let it sit for at least 3 hours or when you stick a toothpick in it and nothing sticks to the toothpick.
