Pork steak in the oven: cooking details
- For steak, take the pulp without veins, tapes and lard. If the meat is fat, the heat will melt the fat during heat treatment, and the steak will be dry and tough. The exception is the "marble" meat - pork with thin layers of fat. For example, pork neck. The steak from such meat turns out gentle and juicy.
- If a beef steak is made slightly roasted, then it is better to bring pork meat to readiness (due to the possible presence of helminths in it). Grilled steak has a ruddy crust, clear juice and juicy flesh.
- Roasting in the oven allows you to cook several steaks at a time. They are cooked in a well-heated oven so that a crust forms on the surface of the meat, which will prevent the juice from coming out.
- Good results are obtained by pre-frying meat in a pan. Then it is brought to readiness in the oven.
- To make a pork steak tasty and fragrant, it can be pre-pickled. To do this, use different spices, wine, lemon juice, soy sauce, mustard. Before roasting, the meat must be dried with paper towels.
- Steak is not made from fresh meat. Before use, it should rest in the freezer for at least three weeks.
