Steak Tartare
Probably many people don’t like the idea to eat raw meat, and to be honest, even if I have no problem to eat it, I also prefer other ways to use the meat 🙂 but in my wife’s family it’s tradition to eat it at New Year’s Eve, so once in a year I can…
Pan-seared Flank Steak, with “kind of” Chimichurri Sauce :)
Today one of the most amazing but maybe underrated beef cuts: the flank steak. The flank steak is a cut from the belly, it’s a cut with a lot of muscular fibers and if you want to cook it as a steak you have to cook it fast and at high heat, otherwise it will…
Spezzatino di Manzo (Beef Stew with Potatoes and Peas)
This is a recipe that at home my mom uses to make quite often, it’s not difficult and it’s also quite cheap since we are not using the “best” cuts of the beef 🙂 It’s a classic recipe through all Italy I think, and it can be a simple but tasty dish for your Sunday…

Coda alla Vaccinara (Roman Style Braised Oxtail)

Beef Steak (cooked in the Pan)
After so much fish, here it is finally a nice and juicy beef steak…in the way I like it, of course 🙂 Before starting to talk about the recipe, which is quite simple (there are just details to take care 🙂 ), I think it’s important to talk about the main ingredient…I’m far to be…
