How to Make Beautiful Brisket Broth Soup
- Refrigerate the brisket braising liquid overnight to allow the fat to congeal. Remove and discard the solidified fat from the surface.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large, wide pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, to the pot. Sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add 8 ounces of cremini mushrooms, sliced, to the pot. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and brown nicely, about 8-10 minutes.
- Season with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- Stir in 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained, and 2 cups of shredded leftover brisket.
- Strain the reserved brisket braising liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into the pot. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add 5 ounces of fresh spinach, a handful at a time, stirring until wilted.
- Stir in 1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust to your spice preference), finely minced, along with 1 tablespoon of adobo sauce. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
