Steak: Frozen With Salt

Well, here is yet another method of cooking steak I have not heard.

Melanie at Lifehacker.com suggests searing a FROZEN steak first, then placing it in the oven at a low temperature for up to an hour (depending upon how well done you prefer it).

Writer Brandon Matzek says of this method: “The contrast of the salty, golden crust and the smooth, buttery center is just pure heaven.”

Hey, that sounds marvelous! Sign me up!

It had never occurred to me to not let a steak thaw before starting the cooking process. This sounds pretty intriguing.

What do you think? Would you try this?

Heart Healthy Valentine

 

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, but you can make a pledge to your sweetie that will last well beyond Tuesday’s holiday.

February is American Heart Month and the emphasis is on keeping us all heart healthy. The older I get, the more I think about this. I want my ticker – and my honey’s ticker – to stay healthy forever.

So…now is the perfect time to try these heart healthy steaks and beef tips. They’re certified by the American Heart Association and they are leaner cuts than you’d find on just any old steaks.

Pretty cool.

Some of them are seasoned heart healthy steaks and some are unseasoned. I think I’ll try the seasoned ones for a little extra kick.

Speaking of KICKING, I’m ramping up the exercise, too. I’m serious about this.

There’s nothing more romantic than a gesture that says, “I want you around for as long as possible!”

Click here to check out all the details on these AHA certified steaks. Enjoy!
