Beef Carpaccio
Method
Preparation
- 1
Choosing the Beef
Select a high-quality beef tenderloin. Ensure it is fresh and well-trimmed.
- 2
Freezing the Beef
Wrap the beef tenderloin in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for about 1 hour. This makes it easier to slice thinly.

Slicing the Beef
Once the beef is firm but not completely frozen, remove it from the freezer. Using a sharp knife, slice the beef thinly against the grain. Aim for slices about 1/8 inch thick.

Arranging the Carpaccio
Lay the beef slices on a large platter in a single layer, slightly overlapping them.

Adding Capers and Arugula
Sprinkle the capers over the beef and add a generous handful of arugula on top.

Shaving Parmesan
Use a vegetable peeler to shave the Parmesan cheese over the carpaccio.
