Tsukudani-Style Celery Simmer

I really wanted to eat a tsukudani-style simmer, so I bought a bunch of green celery. Celery leaves are actually kind of tough and hard, so instead of eating them raw it's common to have them softened in soups or tsukudani-like simmers. Those who dislike celery have even told me that they can eat it in this dish.
Don't flavor it from the start. Add after the leaves have softened a bit. You can simmer it until the juices have cooked off for a tsukudani, or enjoy as a simmer, both are delicious. Please adjust as desired. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

Beef Tsukudani (Sweet and Salty Simmered Beef) Beef Tsukudani (Sweet and Salty Simmered Beef)
We received some beef tsukudani from a famous store some time ago as a gift. This recipe is my version of that. If you make a generous amount, you can turn leftovers into onigiri (rice balls) or ochazuke (rice with tea) the next day.Beef offcuts are the best to use for this, since it has a decent amount of fat but not too much. Too much fat makes this too oily, but too little makes it dry. We use a mixture of the fatty parts of wagyu beef and cheap imported beef. Please adjust the ginger, sugar and soy sauce amounts to your taste. I prefer it with lots of ginger. This lasts for 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator, so I always make a lot. For a generous amount to stock in your refrigerator. Recipe by Cha-miru cookpad.japan -

I love the combination of soy sauce and ginger. I wanted to eat rice with the things I love, so I came up with this recipe.Since it's meat to be mixed with plain rice, it's very assertively flavored. Adjust the amount of soy sauce to your taste.There's plenty of ginger, so you can add more if you like.If the ginger is too spicy for you, you can parboil i beforehand to take the edge off before proceeding.

I referred to"Try this with somen noodles King oyster and shimeji mushroom tsukudani" to create this recipe, but the new-harvest ginger's hot spiciness was too strong, so I added lots of sugar to change the flavor.Taste the ginger at Step 6. If it's still too hot and spicy, add more sugar and simmer a while longer. For using a pressure cooker. Recipe by Hokkori-no cookpad.japan
