Mr. Bean’s Steak Tartare

 

If you’ve never had the pleasure of watching Mr. Bean in action, you’re in for a treat.

Played by British comedian Rowan Atkinson, Mr. Bean is always finding himself in ridiculous situations — and then making them even more ridiculous with his crazy antics. That’s just his way. And that’s why we love him.

There were only 14 episodes ever made featuring the lovable doof and this one is a doozy. Mr. Bean attempts to dine at a fine restaurant and orders a steak.

Now, I prefer my steak cooked — as apparently Mr. Bean does — and, well, hilarity ensues.

If you have a “taste” for British comedy, you’ll like this one. Enjoy this steak tartare with Mr. Bean!

Steak with Pomegranate-Pinot Sauce

This is so gorgeous, it just HAS to taste good!

This steak is enveloped in a beautiful pomegranate and wine sauce. Delish.

If you’re up for something a little different, try this recipe, plus the garlicky potato recipe that accompanies it this weekend. . . and let me know how it goes!

Happy weekend, everybody!

Nutrition Labels on Meat?

Beginning in 2012, the USDA will require meat producers to include nutrition labels on cuts of meat like tenderloin, ground beef and the like.

What do you think about this?

Overall, it seems like a good idea to me. Information is, after all, power.

BUT. . . people usually resist change. It’s scary.

So, what do you think? Is this a move for the better or are we becoming more and more Big Brother-like????

Read the whole story about the new changes here.
