Brisket With Mushrooms Recipe - Cooking Index
1 oz | 28g | Dried porcini mushrooms |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Vegetable oil |
4 lbs | 1816g / 64oz | Beef brisket - (to 5) |
2 lbs | 908g / 32oz | Onions - thinly sliced (medium) |
3 | Garlic cloves - pressed | |
1 | Reduced-sodium beef broth - (14 1/2 oz) | |
1 | Bay leaf | |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Salt |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Freshly-ground black pepper |
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.
