Instructions

1. 1Cut the about 910 g beef shank into 2.54 cm (2.5 cm) cubes.
2. 2Peel and thinly slice the 5.08 cm of ginger, and peel and finely mince the 4 cloves of garlic. Wash and finely chop the 2 stalks of green onions for garnish, and wash and roughly chop the 4 cups of bok choy.
3. 3In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat over medium-high heat (around 190.6°C / 190°C). Add the 2.54 cm (2.5 cm) beef shank cubes and sear for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
4. 4To the pot with the seared beef, add the 8 cups of beef broth, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tbsp of rice vinegar, 3 pieces of star anise, the sliced 5.08 cm of ginger, the minced 4 cloves of garlic, and 1 tsp of chili garlic sauce.
5. 5Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat (100°C / 100°C). Reduce heat to low (around 83°C / 82°C), cover, and simmer for 2-3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender and easily pulls apart, reaching an internal temperature of at least 96°C.
6. 6During the last 5 minutes of simmering, stir in the 4 cups of chopped bok choy. Continue to simmer for 5 minutes, until the bok choy is bright green and slightly tender-crisp.
7. 7Open the package of about 340 g shirataki noodles, drain them into a colander, and rinse thoroughly under cold running water for 1-2 minutes. Place the rinsed noodles in a medium saucepan, cover with fresh water, and boil over high heat (100°C / 100°C) for 2-3 minutes, then drain well.
8. 8Divide the cooked and drained about 340 g shirataki noodles evenly among four serving bowls. Ladle the tender beef, broth, and bok choy over the noodles, and garnish each serving with the chopped 2 stalks of green onions.
