1 oz 28gDried porcini mushrooms
1 tablespoon 15mlVegetable oil
4 lbs 1816g / 64ozBeef brisket - (to 5)
2 lbs 908g / 32ozOnions - thinly sliced (medium)

1   Reduced-sodium beef broth - (14 1/2 oz)
1   Bay leaf

Recipe Instructions

Place mushrooms in a small bowl with 3/4 cup of water. Microwave on high until water boils; remove and let mushrooms cool to room temperature.

Heat oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Brown brisket on one side. Turn and add onions; continue browning. When onions are brown, add garlic; cook 1 minute more.

Remove mushrooms from soaking liquid (reserve liquid). Rinse mushrooms and chop. Strain soaking liquid through a coffee filter to remove grit.

Pour in beef broth and mushroom liquid. Add bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Cover; reduce heat to low and cook 2 to 2 1/2 hours, until brisket is tender. Transfer brisket to a cutting board.

Increase heat to high and cook until juices thicken slightly. Remove bay leaf. Cut brisket against the grain into thin slices.
