Beef a La Rydberg image

A Swedish classic, invented some 100 years ago at the then-famous Hotel Rydberg in Stockholm. Use the best meat available. You can use the tail part of the fillet. This dish is somewhat impractical to make for more than two persons, since it would be difficult to broil all the meat simultaneously. One variety, Beef a la Greta (named after Greta Garbo), comes with a mixture of strong mustard and heavy cream, served cold a part and a raw egg yolk.
