Under aged beef is tough as old boots and tastes of nothing. No wonder you have to burn it to a cinder. As for baulking at eating animals, what do you do about trout, sardines, snails?Its the only way to serve this par excellent dish and preferably not aged for more than a few days.
All this luvvie aging shite for 28 days reduces my culinary stomach into a gastronomic fits of panic. Pretentious twaddle made up by restaurants to serve old left over stock and as seasoned diners .. we shall have le-non of it.
Become a vegan, mate, fricassed cardboard is delicious.
