21 Day Matured Beef Steaks with Black Garlic Melts
What it is
These are pre-portioned beef steaks that have undergone a 21-day maturing process, designed to enhance tenderness and flavor. Each steak comes with a black garlic melt, a savory topping that melts over the steak as it cooks, infusing it with a rich, umami taste. This product offers a convenient way to enjoy a restaurant-quality steak experience at home.

To prepare, remove the steaks from their packaging. For the best results, allow them to come to room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time for your preferred doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a black garlic melt on top of each steak and allow it to melt. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
The 21-day maturation process distinguishes these steaks by developing deeper beefy flavors and a more tender texture compared to unaged or shorter-aged cuts. The inclusion of the black garlic melt provides a pre-made flavor enhancer, offering a distinct savory and slightly sweet profile that complements the beef.
