Tips for Cutting Your Steak

Few people realize that when and how you cut your steak will drastically impact how it tastes. After you’ve spent the time to properly season, marinate and cook your steak, you don’t want to ruin all of your work by improperly using your steak knives while cutting your meat.

One of the most important things to remember when carving any piece of meat is to let it rest after cooking. This doesn’t require any fancy kitchen gadgets; simply cover the meat with a piece of tin foil and leave it for at least ten minutes. This gives the juices the opportunity to be reabsorbed and distributed throughout the meat and ensures that it won’t dry out.

When you use your steak knife to cut the meat, always be sure to cut perpendicular to the grain. By cutting against the grain it will ensure the meat is tender and melts in your mouth.
