Caldo de Res. Mexican beef soup. You use tough cuts of meat. I知 using trditional shanks and not so traditional short ribs
Daylight goes away fast now. Not much time for things after work.
I got the soup going. Boiled, dumped out all the foamy water, refilled with boiling water from electric kettles. I had the oven preheated to 320 degrees. (I use 300 for slow braises). My new dog is energy insane and driving me nuts at this point. I got the soup up to a rolling boil and popped it into the oven.
Running shoes, hyper ass dog - went for a jog. No fussing with the gas burner trying to get the gentlest boil going. I just left. I run slow.
I get home and it hits me right in the face. The smell of beefy soup. I pull it out of oven and the water is gently simmering. I didn稚 even stir it. Washed up, and chopped my veggies and I知 ready for the next step of the dish. Man, what a time saver! I didn稚
have to mess with it at all.
I知 going to do more soups in the oven.
I値l probably break my Le Creuset stock pot now
