Cost per serving $0.27 view details
  • 8 c. clear Supreme Chicken Broth (see recipe), strained
  • 1 c. sake (Japanese rice wine)
  • 1 lb prime-quality beef filet (eye fillet) trimmed of excess fat and sinews Salt to taste Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 bn cilantro including stems washed well, dry and minced into 1" lengths

Directions

  1. In a stockpot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add in the sake and simmer gently while you slice the beef.
  2. Slice the filet in half lengthwise and lay the open side down on a cutting board. Cut proportionately on the diagonal into slices 1/4-inch thick.
  3. Add in the beef to the broth, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute. Adjust for seasoning, adding salt and pepper, if you like.
  4. Add in the cilantro, stir gently once or possibly twice to combine and serve.
  5. This recipe yields 6 servings.
  6. Comments: The simple, yet precise nature of this soup places it firmly in the sophisticated and cosmopolitan city of Guangzhou (Canton), the gateway to foreign trade from as early as the mid-eighteenth century.
  7. The use of beef filet (eye fillet), Japanese sake and cilantro (fresh coriander) indicates the new direction of contemporary Chinese cooking with cross-culinary influences from Vietnam and Thailand. The blending of ingredients from other cuisines requires sensitive handling and understanding.
