Cooking steak blue

[twentysix by twentyfive]

Daughter #2 plucked a pheasant the other day. It was green not blue

At a good restaurant I will have a steak rare, if I'm not sure of the quality of the supply then I may go as far as medium. Rather than a blue steak I would rather go for tartare.

A blue steak should be warm in the middle.

Once in my Dads restaurant a customer asked for her steak raw. He cut the steak off the joint, trimmed it up and served it ...

If it's warm it's not blue.

You clearly did not watch mastercher the professionals last week.

I couldn't think of anything worse...

The Hairy Bikers?

It only works at all if it's a decent cut of meat, and I'm not personally convinced that it isn't posturing anyway.

Posturing? Ah no, you're cooking the taste out and chewiness in once it starts going brown.

I quite like them. Their Asian tour was quite fun.... plus we are similar in size and facial furniture.

I despair...... I bet you like Valentine Warner too.

There's a butcher that services the hedgies of Notting Hill, about a mile from here. It's called Lidgates. Have a look at their beef steaks. £33.30 for a single 180 g fillet!

Nice carpaccio of beef, or a steak tartare with a raw egg on top.

Possibly so, but I'm never going to find that out at £33.30 a pop. The last time I bought fillets from Lidl they cost 11% of that and tasted pretty good to my unrefined palate.

And don't forget a good steak the animal should be hung for at least 28 days. 35 better, 42 even better after that there isn't much difference in texture or taste.
