Salting Your Steak

 

If you don’t have prime steak and you want to go marinade free there is a simple effective technique called salting. This will take a choice cut of meat and tenderize to almost prime status in 1 hour. 

To salt your steak is a piece of cake. Do this right before you are going to cook.  All that you need to do is remove your steak from its packaging. Pat it dry with a paper towel. Then cover the steak on both sides with course salt, remember your covering not seasoning. Don’t get nervous you will wash off the salt in 1 hour. The purpose of this is that the salt breaks down the proteins in the meat and in turn makes it more tender. OK so it’s been an hour, take your steaks out of the fridge and rinse off the salt under cold water. When all the salt is removed pat your steaks very dry with a paper towel. Grill to your desired temperature.
