As summer approaches and barbecue season kicks off, cooking the perfect steak can be a challenge. Experts from Campells Meat suggest a simple yet effective seasoning method to elevate your steak: using Parmesan cheese. Unlike traditional salt, a light dusting of Parmesan enhances the beef's flavor, creating a richer, umami taste. This technique works particularly well with ribeye and sirloin cuts, as their marbling helps carry the flavors better than leaner cuts like fillet. The reason behind this enhancement lies in the high levels of glutamates found in both aged beef and mature Parmesan, which complement each other beautifully. To achieve the best results, it's crucial to let the steak warm up to room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. Additionally, allowing the steak to rest for five minutes post-cooking is essential to retain its juices, preventing dryness when sliced. This combination of techniques promises a steak that tastes premium and satisfying.
