STEAK TARTARE
Bring the bistro home with this classic recipe for steak tartare. The key to serving a restaurant-quality appetizer at your kitchen table is two-fold: First, buy the best quality beef tenderloin you can find-there's a time and place for economy cuts but this isn't one of them! Then, freezing the meat for about 20 minutes firms it up just enough so that it makes quick and easy work out of cutting it into small, even pieces.

Steps:
- Place beef on a small plate. Freeze until firmed up slightly, about 20 minutes. Cut chilled beef into 1/4-inch pieces; transfer to a small non-reactive bowl and toss with shallots, capers, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice. Season with flaky salt and pepper.
- Spread mustard onto a chilled plate; arrange tartare in center of plate. Make a small indent in the center and top with egg yolk. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with toasted bread, butter, cornichons, and parsley sprigs.
ORIGINAL STEAK TARTARE
The legend goes that Tartare tribes when fighting in the past didn't even have time to stop and cook their food. They are said to have kept the meat underneath their saddles and mince it in this way. Today this dish is a gourmet classic. This dish is eaten like a pate, spread on a piece of warm toast with fresh tomato and onion rings on top. It is very important though to make sure that both the meat and the egg are very fresh because they are eaten raw.
