Raymon Kim's Beef Shank Gyu Don

A Japanese-style beef bowl featuring tenderized beef shoulder simmered in a savory katsuobushi broth with caramelized onions, achieved by marinating the meat in finely grated onion for a soft texture and reduced gamey flavor.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid using a blender to grate onions as it releases too much liquid; use a grater to keep texture intact.
  • The parchment paper 'parachute' lid traps heat and moisture, allowing the sauce to penetrate evenly throughout the beef, keeping it moist and flavorful inside.
  • For extra richness, optionally place a fresh egg yolk in the center of the rice bowl and mix it in before eating.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a lighter, smoother beef bowl compared to rich ribeye gyo don.
  • Home cooks eager to try authentic Japanese cooking with minimal equipment.
