Beef Tartare: Gourmet Snack Delicacy

Ingredients

• 8 oz. beef tenderloin, finely diced


• 1 tbsp capers, finely chopped


• 1 small shallot, finely diced


• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard


• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce


• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped


• 1 egg yolk


• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste


• 4 slices crusty bread, toasted


• Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling

Instructions

1. Prepare the Beef: Use the sharpest knife you have to finely dice the beef tenderloin. Aim for uniform pieces to ensure even flavor distribution.


2. Mingle the Flavors: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced beef, capers, shallot, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and parsley.


3. Season Generously: Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to the mixture according to your taste preferences. Stir gently to combine.


4. Emulsify the Mixture: Create a well in the center of the beef mixture and add the egg yolk. Gently mix it into the beef until evenly distributed. The yolk provides a luscious texture and binds the ingredients.


5. Adjust to Taste: Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or mustard if needed.


6. Serve Creatively: Mold the beef tartare into individual servings using a ring mold or form a mound with a spoon. Place each serving on a slice of toasted crusty bread for a delightful crunch. Drizzle with a touch of extra virgin olive oil for a glossy finish.


7. Garnish Thoughtfully: Garnish each serving with a small parsley sprig or extra chopped capers for a visual and flavor accent.
