"Sauce beef" can be bought all over the country. I have eaten sauced beef from many places, but I think Beijing's sauced beef and stewed mutton are still delicious. <br />Meat made with soy sauce, as the name suggests, is made using sauce methods. You must use old Beijing yellow sauce to be authentic and taste mellow. In many places, miso soup blended with soy sauce and soy sauce is used. The meat produced by the sauce is very dark in color and tastes much inferior. Some even have a strange smell! <br />Spices used for sauced meat must be complete. In principle, less heavy spices should be added and more light spices can be added. Each spice must be matched just right to reflect the special taste of sauced beef. <br />The most famous one of the "pickled beef, roasted mutton, stewed mutton" in old Beijing is the famous "Yuesheng Zhai", which has a history of hundreds of years.

Due to the limited conditions for making at home, everything can only be simplified, but the main raw materials are indispensable. Otherwise, there will be no aroma of sauce beef and the flavor characteristics of old Beijing will be lost! <br />There is another most inconspicuous trick to sauce beef and mutton. In fact, it is both simple and important. That is, before sauce the meat, you must soak the meat for a few hours. Moreover, the meat cannot be blanched with boiling water. You must directly put the raw meat into the pot. Only then will the meat taste and cook quickly. <br />Today, we will make this old Beijing-style "sauce beef" according to the family's production method. Because I sauce a piece of beef and a piece of mutton at the same time, it is called "sauce beef, stewed mutton". The specific practices are as follows;
