Quality steak at a good price

03/10/2022

Looking for a culinary secret when buying vacuum-sealed beef steaks (filet, rib-eye, rump, or sirloin) at the supermarket, either due to the absence of a local butcher or specialty store, or simply because the portion sizes suit your needs? Here's a pro tip: Consider selecting a steak that's nearing its expiration date. Contrary to what you might think, this doesn't mean the steak is about to spoil; quite the opposite. A well-aged steak tends to offer a more delightful dining experience. In the culinary world, this aging process is known as "wet-aging," and it often comes with a hefty price tag. So, next time you're perusing the supermarket aisle for beef, keep an eye out for steaks nearing their expiration date – you might just discover a flavor-packed gem!
