為了推廣台灣美食，行政院新聞局特邀請去年11月榮獲「台北國際牛肉麵節」紅燒組冠軍的侯圳生師傅，於2月4日至13日至舊金山展示他的廚藝，並公布他得獎牛肉麵的食譜秘方。
經駐舊金山辦事處新聞組的數月安排，侯師傅將於2月8日中午在Google矽谷總公司、同日晚舊金山L’Olivier法國餐廳、2月9日 下午在沙加緬度Spataro義大利餐廳，以及2月11日中午在全美高級廚具連鎖店Williams-Sonoma舊金山旗艦店等4場地巡迴示範他冠軍作 品，隨後轉赴華府，讓美國人品嚐義大利麵、越南麵及日本拉麵以外的另一種的麵食天地。
侯師傅現年48歲，嘉義人。他自民國67年7月在台北西門町當學徒以來，在台灣南北各大城擔任廚師，廚藝經歷豐富。「台北國際牛肉麵節」 為台北市政府主辦，迄今已舉辦7屆，為台灣一年一度的牛肉麵盟主爭霸賽，名聞遐邇。身為西餐師傅的他，為了參賽，花了3年時間觀察及研發。去年11年第一 次參加此一擂台盛會，一舉奪冠。侯師傅掌廚的Room 18夜店，原本不賣中餐，侯師傅得獎牛肉麵推出後熱賣，反成該店招牌菜。
台灣美食不勝枚舉，為何選中牛肉麵？負責策劃侯師傅訪問舊金山的駐舊金山辦事處新聞組組長彭滂沱表示，牛肉麵是1949年大陸移民在台獨 創，在台灣生根後成為在地美食，隱然有族群融合的意義。如今牛肉麵為台灣民眾的日常簡餐，也是高級大飯店的豪華佳餚，價位可從新台幣100元到新台幣1萬 美元，是台灣最經典的全民餐點。
牛肉麵特色之一為簡單易煮。但是，侯師傅創意十足的冠軍作品可不然。新聞組上上下下的同仁為了規劃代購侯師傅的食材，實做多次，結果與真味仍有距離。以下是侯師傅的中文食譜(英文版：http://www.taiwaninsights.com/2012/01/17/chef-hous-recipe-for-beef-noodle-soup/)，歡迎大家一起參照習作，讓台灣美食在異國飄香。

Created in Taiwan, the beef noodle soup (new row mien) is a popular street food on the island. This is Chef Hou Chun-sheng winning recipe at the 2011 Taipei International Beef Noodle Soup Festival. It has been modified to serve 10 large bowls.
As in many Taiwanese food recipes, the measurement of the ingredients varies, depending on your experience and personal taste. In addition, the special herbs are not easy to find outside Chinatowns. This recipe is not for the faint of heart, but then again, were you expecting a championship-winning recipe to be? For your reference, you can see pictures of Chef Hou preparing his signature dish. Good luck and Enjoy!

(The Chinese herbal shop uses a measurement system that does not have an English equivalent, however we converted it to the metric system to give you a better idea of the quantities involved.)
Fresh noodle, depending on your preference and what’s available locally
Preparing the broth
1) Boil about 1 gallon of water and beef bones and filter out impurities.
2) Heat half of the oil and saute half of the green onions, ginger, garlic and red hot chilly peppers until you get a nice fragrant smell. Add half of the rock sugar, hot bean paste, soy sauce to the vegetables and cook slightly before combining it to the beef bone broth.
3) Then add half the fermented bean curd and all the tomato paste.
4) Lastly, include half of the the black peppercorn, bay leaves and one Chinese seasoning bag to the broth.
5) Simmer for 6 hours. If you are not using a mesh herb bag, be sure to put the broth through a sieve.
Preparing the beef shank
1) Cook the beef shank with just enough water to cover the meat, boil the meat until it’s cooked through. Let it cool and then sliced into oval disks, about one-third inch thick. Save the beef water for later.
2) Sauté the remaining green onions, ginger, garlic and red hot chili peppers in vegetable oil until it’s fragrant. Add the remaining rock sugar, hot bean paste and soy sauce, cook briefly.
3) Add the remaining fermented bean curd, and all the soy paste and dark soy sauce, before adding the rest of the black peppercorn, bay leaf and Chinese herb packet.
4) Place the sliced beef shanks into the sauce and add just enough beef water to cover the beef slices. Stir to ensure even mixing. Cover and cook for 30 minutes. If you like your meat more tender, you can cook for longer. Keep the pot covered while it’s cooling down. Take the slices out and strain the remaining liquid if you want a smoother sauce.
Preparing the noodle and assembling the dish
1) Boil the water, add the noodle and cook until done. Drain.
2) Remove the skin from the tomatoes, and chop them into ¼ inch cubes. (You can peel tomatoes easily by dropping it into boiling water for a few seconds. The skin will separate from the flesh. Take it out and dip into cold water)
3) Chop the Romaine lettuce into 1 inch shreds. Then flash cook the lettuce in boiling water. Drain.
4) Put noodles into the bowl, top with beef shanks, lettuce, tomatoes, then spoon 4/5 beef broth and 1/5 beef sauce. Top with chopped green onions and cilantro. Enjoy.
