FILET OF BEEF CARPACCIO

Steps:

• Rub the beef with olive oil and sprinkle all over with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Heat a saute pan over high heat and sear the filet on all sides, turning it with tongs. Wrap the beef in plastic wrap and freeze for 2 hours, turning once to freeze evenly.
• Meanwhile, place the egg yolks, mustard, garlic, anchovies, lemon juice, 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process for 15 seconds. Combine the 3/4 cup olive oil and the canola oil in a glass measuring cup. With the food processor running, slowly pour the oils down the feed tube in a thin stream. Add the grated Parmesan and pulse to combine.
• Remove the string from the beef and slice it very thin with a sharp slicing or smoked salmon knife. Place 5 slices on each dinner plate in a single layer. Drizzle the beef generously with the dressing and (in this order) sprinkle with the capers, kosher salt, pepper, arugula, shaved
• Parmesan, and sea salt. Serve at room temperature with a pitcher of extra dressing on the side.

• Trim the tenderloin of all visible fat and sinew. Wrap tightly in plastic and then place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
• Pick the most tender and succulent tips from the arugula and place in a bowl. Toss with the olive oil and 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice.
• Remove the tenderloin from the freezer and unwrap the plastic. Using your sharpest knife, slice the meat into 1/4-inch coins. Arrange the meat on a large platter in overlapping slices. Season generously with salt and cracked pepper. Dot the meat with the preserved pecorino and drizzle the marinating oil over all. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Mound the arugula in the center of the plate and serve.
