RICE VINEGAR RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• To make the rice, first wash it thoroughly in a sieve for 4 mins, gently turning it over by hand until the water runs clear. Drain the rice and put it in a pan with 540ml water.
• Leave it to stand for a minimum of 30 mins. It can be left overnight, but for best results, leave it for 30 mins-1 hr. Leave the soaking water in the pan with the rice and bring to the boil, put the lid on, reduce the heat and simmer for 8 -9 mins. Turn the heat off and let it stand with the lid on for a further 5 mins. Do not lift the lid.
• While the rice is cooking, to make the sushi-su, put the rice vinegar, sugar and 1 tbsp salt into a pan and leave on a low heat until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Be careful not to let it boil or the flavour will spoil. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
• Put the rice into a wide flat dish such as a sushi oke, a baking dish or a roasting tray. Pour the sushi-su over the rice and fold it carefully into the rice with a wooden spoon as it cools down, being careful not to damage the grains. You can use a fan or a hairdryer on the coolest setting to speed up the cooling process, directing it at the rice. The sushi-su gives the rice more flavour and that familiar sticky glazed look.
• If you don’t want to use the rice immediately, cover it with a damp cloth so that it doesn’t dry out. Leave in a cool place, but do not refrigerate. The fridge will make the rice hard and dry, and the sushi-su helps to preserve the rice without refrigeration. Will keep for a day.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Rub a little bit of olive oil over the stew meat. Place stock bones and stew meat into the Cooking Vessel.
• Once the oven has preheated, place the Cooking Vessel into the oven. Roast in the oven for about 45 minutes. Turn the bones and meat pieces half-way through cooking, until nicely browned.
• When the bones and meat are nicely browned, remove theCooking Vessel from the oven and place it into the Cooking Base.
• Add carrots, onions celery tops, garlic, parsley, bay leaves and peppercorns into the Cooking Vessel.
• Fill with cold water, 2 inches over the top of the bones (about 8-9 cups of water).
• Close the lid. Select-SLOW COOK and set the time to 12 hours. Press START.
• From time to time check in on the stock and use a large metal spoon to scoop away the fat and any scum that rises to the surface.
• Do not stir the stock while cooking. Stirring will mix the fats in with the stock, clouding up the stock.
• Once the cooking cycle is complete, open the lid.
• Strain the beef stock through strainer.
• Serve immediately or let cool to room temperature then chill in the refrigerator. If you plan to freeze the stock, however, remove and discard the fat, pour the stock into a jar or plastic container.
