Carpaccio With Arugula And Artichoke Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Freeze the beef, wrapped in a plastic wrap, for 1 hour, or until it is firm but not frozen solid, and with a very sharp knife cut it across the grain into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Arrange the slices about 3 inches apart on sheets of plastic wrap, cover them with additional sheets of plastic wrap, and with a rolling pin, roll the slices thin, testing the first rolled slice to make sure it is no too thin to be lifted from the plastic without tearing. Roll up the sheets of plastic loosely and chill the beef for at least 1 hour or up to 3 hours.
• In a blender purée the artichoke hearts with the vinegar, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste, add the oil in a stream and 2 tablespoons warm water, and blend the mixture until it is emulsified.
• Divide the beef slices among 4 chilled plates, lining the plates with a single layer of the slices, and mound the arugula and the Parmesan curls in the center of each plate. Sprinkle each serving with the pepper to taste, drizzle some of the dressing over each serving, and serve the remaining dressing separately.

• Hints & Clues
• · Carpaccio is thinly sliced beef tenderloin, but you can also have a carpaccio of any type of meat that is safe to eat raw or cured (such as bison, boar, or duck) or high-quality fish.
• · Ask your butcher to prepare the carpaccio for you if you are interested.
• · Arugula has a peppery flavor that goes well with the salty Parmesan and tangy taste of lemon, mustard, and mayonnaise.
• · Use a flat vegetable peeler to shave Parmesan cheese. Use the peeler like you're a peeling a carrot, or cucumber to make thin shaved strips.
• · It is common to coat carpaccio with lemon juice and olive oil before serving it. They not only help to bring out the taste, but help with freshness and color.

Steps:

• Wrap beef in plastic, and chill in freezer until firm, about 1 hour. Using a very sharp knife, cut beef across the grain into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Gently pound slices between pieces of waxed paper. Refrigerate beef slices between pieces of waxed paper 1 hour (up to 2 hours).
• Whisk together oil, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Cut pears into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Toss with 2 tablespoons lemon juice in a bowl. Arrange beef in a single layer on serving plates. Drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Toss arugula with the dressing, and arrange over beef. Arrange pears over arugula. Top with Parmesan; drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Trim the tenderloin of all visible fat and sinew. Wrap tightly in plastic and then place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
• Pick the most tender and succulent tips from the arugula and place in a bowl. Toss with the olive oil and 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice.
• Remove the tenderloin from the freezer and unwrap the plastic. Using your sharpest knife, slice the meat into 1/4-inch coins. Arrange the meat on a large platter in overlapping slices. Season generously with salt and cracked pepper. Dot the meat with the preserved pecorino and drizzle the marinating oil over all. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Mound the arugula in the center of the plate and serve.
