In this new addition to my recipe notes, I’m adding some tips for preparing and cooking different meat types.  First up, is a recommendation from a recent technology podcast, on how to cook a perfectly tender Flank Steak.

1. Never tenderize the meat.
2. Marinade/soak in Soy Sauce (Brand Kikkoman was recommended) for 15 to 20 minutes maximum.
3. Have the grill burning at it’s maximum heat.
5. Cook for no more than 3 minutes on each side.
6. When serving, always cut sideways, against the grain.

First but definitely not the last time at #RockCreekSeafoodAndSpirits yesterday evening, for a meal in which the flavors were just a continuous cascade on my taste buds #Seattle #FremontDining
Another vacation over. CUN->SEA via DFW. Flying AA for the first time in years and they sure have upped their game. Perfectly cooked salmon and flat beds in business class! Now I’m curious to experience the 2nd leg which is in 1st.
