A typical Tuscan recipe with few ingredients: quality meat, pepper, and time to spend in the kitchen. It's a simple dish, but one that brings back the pleasure of slowing down — a glass of wine in hand while the meat simmers gently on the stove.
Ingredients (for 4)
- Beef muscle: 600 g
- Red wine: 1 bottle
- Garlic: 3 cloves
- Salt: to taste
- Black peppercorns: 1 tablespoon
- Black pepper: to taste
- Extra virgin olive oil: 4 tablespoons
Method
How to make it
1
Cut and marinate
Cut the meat into large pieces, about 5 cm each, and put them in a pot or a clay pot. Add the peppercorns, the peeled garlic and cover everything with the wine. Let it marinate for an hour.
2
Cook low and slow
Set the heat very low and cook for about 3 hours, adding more wine during cooking if needed. Turn the meat a few times and let it cook until very tender.
3
Season and serve
Season with salt and pepper, then serve with slices of toasted Tuscan bread.
To serve with: Black Market Deal.
