  2. Use a SUPER sharp knife. You’re aiming for paper thin slices of beef tender، to make the carpaccio. If for any reason you’re in doubt of the knife or feel that it’s tricky to slice, here’s our favorite tip.

  3. Flash freeze the piece of tender، for 2-3 ،urs before slicing. This will ensure the meat doesn’t move around or wobble as you try to slice it and you’ll end up with the paper thin slices in a breeze.
  4. Alternatively, you can use a slicer for this job if you have one.

  5. You can serve the beef carpaccio with any greens, we find arugula is BEST in terms of complimenting the flavors. 
  6. Similarly we love Parmesan cheese as it offers a beautiful flavor profile when combined with the meat.
  7. While we love making a vinaigrette to drizzle, you can simply use a simple vinegar and olive oil. In that case you’ll sprinkle shallots and capers over the dish for garnish. We prefer making a dressing combining all these garnished together and dressing up the carpaccio with it.
