    If you don’t have a meat thermometer, another good method is to use what Marco Pierre White suggests and that is to look to see the juices coming out of the steak. If they’re just starting to come out and are red, that’s rare. If they’re a little pink, medium rare and clear, medium well to well done.

    I would imagine the reason they do the palm check trick is that there is no time to measure with a thermometer in a restaurant environment and at their cadence. The Palm check trick actually works very well and can get you within a few degrees after practicing and learning a few times. The thermometer is great for home chefs though, and I agree everyone should have an instant one to measure their steak at periodic intervals until done.

    • @JoannaHammond

      The way I heard the palm is always touching the fatty part of your thumb and always use that spot.

      Med - touch middle finger to thumb
      Med well - ring finger to thumb

    Also in regards to large chunks of pepper, it will literally lift your steak off the pan (you can see Gordon's sear wasn't great here) which kills the amazing sear AKA color AKA flavor of your meat. I'm with Guga, fine ground pepper all day for steaks.

    So true about the hand test for judging how much your steak is cooked. Just watched a video where a chef compared his old school method cooked directly out of the refrigerator vs reverse seared in the oven at 100 degrees for an hour, when he tested the rev sear method he said it felt well done compared to his but was actually 10 degrees cooler in the center vs his cooked cold. In the end he conceded that the reverse sear was more tender than his preferred method of cooking steak.

    Avoiding burning the butter is quite hard in a cast iron pan because everything is black. I use the peeled garlic as a guide for how the butter is doing. If they look like they are frying in motor oil I know this won't be the best one.
    But when they cook and turn medium brown, and become carmelized and a little crunchy, the cooked garlic is the second best part of the meal (I know eating them is a faux pas but I don't care)

      Cooking in a professional kitchen is an orthodoxy optimized to make money and be consistent, nothing wrong with that. But I (and you) can easily make food far better than anything Gordan can mass produce in one of his restaurants. Guga embraces this aspect of the cooking hobby and I think it's a great thing. If you spend $200 in a restaurant, then you can reproduce the results for $50, you just have to do your research and practice a little.

Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way! Repent of urs sins (Repent means Change ur Mind turning away from sinful things and being truly sorry for it.) trust Jesus and give ur life to him He Loves you cares about you more than anyone ever will! we are saved By Grace Trough Faith!,this is sin: Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death but the gift of eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18‭-‬21‭, ‬23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9‭-‬10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.

    One of the key reasons why taking a steak out of the fridge for 10+ mins is to reduce the surface temperature of the steak. This ensures that it doesn’t reduce the temperature of the pan too much the moment it hits it, leading to a better sear.

No matter how many times I have tried to explain, she just thinks it's bigger chunks of table salt, and now she won't eat my cooking b/c she says, "it's too salty." And, then she gets upset when we have family get togethers and all of my dishes have been eaten, while hers get put in the fridge as leftovers. It's gotten to the point where I don't know who's "saltier" about the whole thing between the two of us.

    I also typically always peel my garlic, BUT... not when doing a steak this way. In the time it takes to cook a steak (at least a 1.5-2" thick one,) even to medium rare, that garlic typically will burn. I have found that by leaving them in the skin, just "lightly crushed" as Ramsay suggests, that the skin prevents the garlic from burning, and the amount of time is sufficient to cook then garlic until it is softer -almost fork-tender and mushy goodness oozes from it. I think Chef Gordon is correct on this call, at least with this approach to cooking a steak in a fry pan.

      Absolutely agree with this.

I am sure Guga has at some point incorporated a few of these techniques from other chefs. So while some of these are either wrong or outdated information, I think it shows that a chef like Gordon is still constantly learning and evolving, which is key to any cooking.

    The reason for letting it sit out 20 or 30 min isnt about getting to room temp, its amount letting the meat muscle to relax from the cold fridge, by using room temp air. It helps with absorbing pepper, salt, and other seasonings. People think its about room temp, which is a myth. But it actually does work for seasoning absorption. But for searing I like Safflower Oil, has a 650 degree smoke temp, and you put in the garlic and rosemary (its only overpowering if you dont know how to properly use it) before the steak, so the oil has flavoring beforehand.

      That's not true at all, it depends where you get your steaks, if you have access to the whole Primal cuts you can cut a steak as thick as you want, or if you go to a butchers you can ask for steaks to the thickness you like, I say this as a butcher myself., you can buy the Primal cuts and cut your own steaks at home and it is very easy. The only steak that takes a little bit of actual skill to cut is a rump steak (and obviously any kind of bone in steak, or steak that requires being an experienced butcher), Striploins and Ribeyes are very easy to cut and really need minimal trimming, and little to no training, as long as you know how to cut against the grain of the meat your good to go.. that's what I like most of being a butcher, I get to cut my own just how I like them everytime

    I think a factor that is not often discussed is the thickness of the steak and how it affects some of the techniques to cook it. I imagine many people tend to buy 1”-1.5” steaks from the grocery store for a weekend treat. For those thinner steaks I think keeping them cold is beneficial. This gives you a touch more time to sear before the interior gets overcooked. With prices these days the 2.5” steaks that most cooking tips are focused on might not be in the budget.

    I know the point of resting is that you kind of want it to come down and temperature a little bit, but if you rest it using foil, you can maintain the heat much longer.

If you use a cooler or something else that can maintain that heat, you can hold it for much longer.

  • @maluatuavene9921
    @maluatuavene9921 Před rokem +58

    Leaving your steak out before cooking it is a legitimate tip, it just depends on the way you try to cook it. If you have a pan with low thermal capacity it can be difficult to develop a crust because you lose so much temperature as soon as you throw the steak in. This means that you're better off cooking at a high temperature and flipping the steak constantly and the crust will develop slowly but should be decently formed by the time the steak is cooked. However, cooking at such a high heat through the whole process creates a large delta between the temperature in the middle of the steak and the temperature on the outside of the steak and cooking steak straight from the refrigerator exacerbates this. This creates what I call banding where the cross section of the steak has distinct stripes. The edge of the steak has a crust, just inside the crust is clearly well done, next to that is a medium pink and then in the middle it is rare.
    Guga's experiment did not address this because each method he used to cook always involved slowly cooking the steak. Even when he did it in the pan he dropped the temperature after searing both sides to slowly bring the steak to temperature. Any time you slowly bring the steak to temperature you don't really need to leave it out of the refrigerator as you aren't creating the delta I was talking about above.
    Try the experiment with a cheap, stainless steel pan and you will realise that you either struggle to form a crust or you will get the banding that I talked about above when you cook the steak straight from the refrigerator.
    I also think olive oil is fine, you just need to be smart about the way you use it. If you're using a solid cast iron pan and letting it get as hot as possible before you throw the steak in, then just throw in the olive oil just before the steak. If you throw it in while you're trying to heat the pan; you will burn it, but throwing in the steak immediately after the oil will cool the pain enough that it won't burn the oil and you will still get a great olive oil flavour.
    If you're cooking in a cheap stainless pan as outlined above you will lose too much temperature when you throw in the oil so you will need to bring it back up to as hot as possible (without burning it) before you throw in the steak. In this situation it may be better to use grapeseed oil to avoid the risk.
    For anyone wondering about non-stick pans; never cook your steak in a non-stick pan. The temperature you need to form that crust will destroy the coating of your pan and you may end up seasoning your steak with Teflon. I mean you could cook your steak over a lower temperature in a non-stick pan if you had to, but it's not going to result in a great steak.

Body composition changes and the touch method can work most of the time but you have to develop that sense of touch so instead of using "universal points" check it with a thermometer until you know what MR should feel like. I will add that maybe you got distracted at the grill and overcooked one side, it's going to feel more well done while the other side is going to not be there yet so I agree that you can't always rely on the touch method

    Guga! I think there is a misconception for why he is taking it out of the fridge 20 minutes early. He does not want the whole steak to come up to room temp. What he is doing is causing the outside of the steak to warm up creating a temperature gradient. Warmer on the outside and still cold on the inside. He does mention this very briefly. This will help you cook the outside (sear) and have less of an affect on the inside temperature since it started out cold. I don't know how much of a difference this makes but the theory makes sense.

Then I pat them down again. You'll find that salt is hydrophilic, which draws some of the water out from the edges of the steak, which allows for the best sear. Then proceed as shown with butter, herbs and peeled, crushed garlic towards the end. Baste and flip as Chef as Chef Ramsay does.

    guga i think you misunderstood gordon a couple times. when he said to take the steak out for 20 minutes, it not to make it get to room temperature but to get the outside warmer and get a good sear. also when he said to not turn it until it has color its not about getting that perfect golden brown i think he means to not turn it before its seared properly because if you start turning it near immediately after it will turn grey.
