Steak. We all love it; we all wish we could prepare it well – or even medium-well. This month’s short and sweet recipe introduces an unusually simple approach to grilling a slab of prime wagyu. Black crystal salt is a key ingredient, as its high mineral content helps bring out the true flavor of the beef instead of overpowering it. Bathing the steak in a marinade of salt, garlic and crushed black pepper before grilling infuses the meat with seasoning, allowing each bite to burst with pure, naturally flavorful juices. This impressive main course should only take about half an hour to prepare and serve, so pencil in a date with your kitchen and start honing those culinary skills!
Ingredients (serves two):
2 wagyu beef rib-eye steaks (150 grams)
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1/8 tsp black crystal sea salt
1/8 tsp crushed black pepper
1 tsp olive oil
Preparation:
1. Cut the steak into 150-gram pieces. Rub each with black crystal sea salt, crushed black pepper and garlic.
2. Place the meat into a freezer bag and marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
3. Take out the marinated steak and grill for choice length of time: medium-rare, 10 to 12 minutes at 145 degrees; medium-well, 12-15 minutes at 160 degrees.
4. Place grilled steak on a plate. Sprinkle with olive oil, crushed black pepper and black crystal salt. Pair with french fries and a side salad.
