Notes
Raw veal tartare hand-knife-beaten is a typical dish from Piedmont, my birth Region. It is obtained by cutting the meat into very small pieces with a sharp knife, till it is practically minced. The result is very different from what you would get grinding the meat, because the texture of the meat is uneven, and its juices are not lost.
We commonly use the juiciest veal sirloin of “fassone”, our Piedmont cattle breed, a white cattle, with particularly developed muscles, and fine and elastic skin. Its meat is tender and lean, with a low-cholesterol, which makes it very suitable for raw consumption.
