Pulled Brisket Ramen

The secret to amazing First Cut Brisket is low and slow cooking with plenty of liquid so adding it to a soup is a great idea! It makes the most flavorful and delicious broth! If you don’t have an instant pot, simply sear the meat in a separate pan, transfer to your crockpot and cook on high for 6 hours.

Beef Nigiri

If you’re into sushi (most kosher-observant Jews are – that’s why they have a sushi stand in every kosher pizza store!), chances are you’ve had nigiri – a mound of sweet sushi rice topped with a slice of raw fish.

Omakase is all the rage these days – a form of Japanese dining where an experienced sushi chef serves a curated menu of sushi – ranging from nigiri, to sashimi and hand rolls. Onigiri is always my favorite – the sweet rice and fresh fish simply melt on your tongue.

So, I decided to make a meat-lovers version, using Denver steak that I could slice thinly to resemble raw fish. And to take it over the top, I made a simple Korean glaze in the pan drippings that I brush over the meat for an added touch.

These little nuggets of deliciousness are easy to put together and just perfect for holiday parties and get-togethers.

Beef Nigiri

2 cups sushi rice
3 cups water
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 1/2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 strips Denver steak
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 1/2 tbsp grapeseed oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 heaping tbsp gochujang
Juice of 1 lime
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tbsp honey
Optional toppings: Sliced jalapeño, toasted sesame seeds, spicy mayo, sweet sauce, micro greens

Method:

Rinse the sushi rice in a fine mesh sieve until the water runs clear. Add the rice and water to a sauce pan, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Keep covered and steam for 10 minutes.

In a small bowl combine the rice vinegar, sugar and salt. For the mixture over the rice and stir to incorporate.

Using wet hands, or hands that are moisten with a bit of sesame oil, divided sushi right into small torpedo shaped mounds.

Are heat oil in a cast iron or heavy bottom skillet until shimmering. Season to Denver steak with salt and pepper and Sierra over high heat for 2-3 minutes per side. Rest for 10 minutes and slice thinly.

In the same pan that you seared the meat, With the heat turned off, add the garlic, gochujang, lime juice, soy sauce and honey. Whisk over medium heat until thickened.

Spread the sliced meat over the mountains of sushi rice and brush with the pan sauce. Top with your garnishes of choice.

Moroccan Chicken Tagine For Amit

I originally created this recipe as part of the #recipesforreturn campaign in honor of AMIT ESTHER BAT ILANA BUSKILA who was taken hostage on October 7th.

It meant so much to me to cook this recipe for Amit, giving her a voice, and sharing her beauty and talent with the world. I used my tagine from Morrocco (for the very first time!) and the ras el hanout and saffron that I brought from from my trip to honor Amit’s Morroccan roots.

Amit is 27 years old and is a budding fashion stylist from Ashdod, who loves to cook and even filmed an audition for Masterchef shortly before she was captured. She loves to go out with her friends and is known for her funloving personality. Please take the time to cook this recipe in Amit’s honor, and to continue to share the voices of the hostages.

Unfortunately, the IDF confirmed that Amit was killed on October 7th near the Supernova music festival, and her body was taken captive by Hamas. It was recovered on May 17th and returned to Israel, where she was laid to rest in Giryat Gat. Rest in peace Amit.
