The Japanese Staple That Makes Pot Roast Far More Interesting - Tasting Table
"Pot roast is a comfort food dish with a quality on the plate that far outweighs the skill or effort required to make it. A nice chuck roast - or one of the other best cuts of beef for pot roast - seared and simmered alongside a variety of starches and vegetables is simple to prepare and yields the kind of meal that both sticks to your ribs and drives the chill right out of your bones on a winter evening."
"Typically, this dish involves cubed meat such as beef or chicken alongside tender carrots and potatoes in a thick, rich gravy flavored with curry powder and other spices. In traditional recipes, the thickness of the gravy is achieved with a roux, but these cubes are an all-in-one offering. Just toss them in the pot with the meat, veggies, and water, and they dissolve into a thick gravy."
Pot roast is an easily prepared comfort food made from a chuck roast or other suitable beef cuts, seared and simmered with starches and vegetables to create a hearty, warming meal. Japanese curry blocks offer a shelf-stable shortcut for creating thick, richly flavored gravy by dissolving directly into the pot with meat, vegetables, and water. Those blocks add layers of complexity and produce an unctuous sauce. Small additions of Japanese-inspired ingredients can further enhance pot roast; soy sauce contributes salt and deep umami, while sesame oil provides a distinctly Asian aroma.
