The New York Occasions as soon as referred to as Grace Younger, creator of Stir-Frying to the Sky’s Edge, the “Stir-Fry Guru.” I’d must agree. She considers stir-frying “a type of culinary magic wherein components are reworked,” and this adaptation of her beef and broccoli is a superb instance. Blended with soy sauce, ginger, and rice wine, the meat caramelizes barely when it hits the recent wok, lending it a deeper, richer taste. I wish to blanch the broccoli florets first to chop down on stir-fry time, however you may toss them in uncooked when you don’t wish to trouble. —Farideh Sadeghin, check kitchen director
