DEFROST STEAKS
No doubt fresh meat is best way to prepare a steak but you can also cook a steak straight out of
freezer and get good results if cooked right way.
Frozen steak had thinner band of overcooked meat “gray band" surrounding the pink
interior than the thawed beef.Therefore, frozen steaks are cooked more evenly, tastes better and are juicy than thawed ones.
First, freeze your steak properly flat on a parchment sheet, wrap them in plastic wrap and put
them in a zippered plastic bag to eliminate the formation of ice crystals or moisture on the steak.
Crystals of ice can cause flare-ups when you are searing your steaks in oil.
You can also brush your steak with oil or use a dry rub before you freeze it for more taste.
Sear the steaks in a hot pan for about 90 seconds on both sides until it gets brown crust and
pink inferior.
Now transfer them to a 275°F / 135°C oven for about 18-20 minutes.
OR
Sear one side of steak in a hot dry pan for 90 seconds and place the uncooked side down in the
baking sheet for approximately 40-60 minutes at lowest possible temperature (200°F / 93°C) ,
more preferably at 133°F / 56°C.
