I have a glass top stove (not induction) and since I’ve most likely used it to prepare whatever side(s) I’m having, I usually just let the steak rest on the stove next to where I was cooking and the residual heat is enough to keep it nice and warm. I usually torch on a flat cast iron pan so it heats up a tad too, but not hot enough to cook any further.
of course the second most important part: let it REST. (10-15 minutes, covered in tinfoil.)
Just an add-on to this for anyone who doesn’t know. “Tent” with foil if you’re going to do that. You don’t want to trap moisture and ruin the nice crust you just made. I don’t bother with foil myself. As long as I don’t cut it, it retains enough heat for me to enjoy it fine.
I prefer this over sous vide because the dry outside lends to better searing and there’s no plastic waste. With just salt and pepper, the flavour of the beef really comes through. I do beef roasts this way too.
I’m with you on the salt and pepper. Love when it’s just full of the beef flavor. And yeah, I wish there was another way that the plastic bags. Ever since I started using a searing torch, I just love the crispy, even crust it gives. I’ll still throw it in a hot cast iron every now and then, but the torch is great. Especially on weird shaped things like poultry. Gets the entire outside nice and crisp. Plus it’s just fun to use.
It’s just me for Thanksgiving this year, but I wanted to do a little something. Made deviled egg potato salad, but everything else was super simple. I decided to do indoor bbq on my Ninja indoor grill/air fryer. Just a sous vide chicken breast finished on the grill with bbq sauce glaze and canned baked beans. I did want a little Thanksgiving flavor so a I made a box of Stovetop cornbread stuffing, with gravy and cranberry sauce, and a small maple/mustard glazed ham steak. The ham steak was the only thing I bought specifically to make. Everything else was just stuff I had in the pantry/fridge.
Definitely feel that. I just got a little ham steak and some sides I’m doing just for me this year. Not doing anything for Xmas. I’ll be recovering from a surgery, yay!
I love that we’re getting all this Asian cinema nowadays, but there’s still more to do. Like you said, lumping all Asians together still. And even still, a lot is all about being Asian. Say what you will about the Fast and Furious movies, but the character of Han is what we need more of. A character that just happens to be Asian, and his whole personality isn’t just “Asian dude”. He’s just a guy, and that’s awesome.
Yeah, it was fine but as an Asian American, the name bothered me. I dunno why they didn’t just call it “The Kung Fu Kid” and market it as a spiritual successor.
I watched it a few days ago and really enjoyed it. But I can see how some might not. I don’t want to give away much but it can come off as “what was the point?” after watching, but IMO, that’s the point. Fassbender’s character is not exactly a reliable narrator. If you look at him as having a higher opinion of himself and his skills than who he actually is, it makes sense. That said, I think if you are a Fincher can already, you’ll enjoy it. There’s an amazing, brutal, fight scene that is almost worth the viewing alone.
