Instructions
Gather all the ingredients.
Peel the daikon and cut it into cubes. Soak the cubes in water for 5 minutes to reduce the bitterness. Drain the water and set the daikon aside.
Chop the cabbage, carrots, and tofu into bite-sized pieces and set them aside.
Cut the chuck beef into bite-sized cubes and season generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1/2 tbsp of cooking oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over high heat. Once the oil is heated, add the cubed beef and sear it on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and set it aside.
In the same pot, add another 1/2 tbsp of cooking oil over high heat. Once oil is heated, add the chopped onions and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Next, add the dashi, chopped cabbage, and seared beef to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 1 hour and 45 minutes.
Once the beef is tender, add the carrots, tofu, and daikon to the pot. Cook for an additional 15 minutes, covered.
Finally, stir in the miso paste until it melts into the broth. Top with sliced green onions before serving.
