Originally posted by EternalOptimist View PostLike everyone else, I have my own style of cooking stuff. But I started to wonder recently if I was doing it right.
question. I want to cook a bit of steak thoroughly (no red bits - medium all through)
is it best to cook it slowly for 20 minutes
is it best to flash it on high for 5 minutes
(please note, I am not talking about cooking it nice - just to get rid of the red bits)
If you really want to know more, get Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall's meat book. A good guide to everything there is to know about good quality meat, from how it's raised to how to recognise it in the shop and how to cook it.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Grill it for 2 minutes on each site and no more. Any longer and you risk losing all of the red and bloody niceness in the middle. UK folk overcook their meat IMV.
