Method

Preparation of Beef

  1. 1

    Slice the Beef

    Using a sharp knife, slice the Piedmontese beef as thinly as possible. It is easier to slice if the beef is slightly frozen. Aim for slices that are about 1-2 mm thick.

  2. 2

    Plate the Beef

    Arrange the sliced beef in a single layer on a large serving platter, slightly overlapping the slices for a beautiful presentation.

Garnishing

  1. 3

    Add Grana Padano

    Using a vegetable peeler, shave the Grana Padano cheese over the beef slices evenly to add flavor.

  2. 4

    Sprinkle Capers

    Evenly sprinkle the capers over the beef and cheese to add a tangy flavor.

  3. 5

    Add Arugula

    Place the wild arugula leaves over the garnished beef, evenly distributing them for a fresh touch.

Dressing

  1. 6

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of the lemon and whisk in the olive oil until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 7

    Drizzle the Dressing

    Drizzle the prepared lemon olive oil dressing generously over the beef carpaccio and garnishes.

Serve

  1. 8

    Final Touch

    Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
