所謂「熟成」或「老化」(Aging),係一種處理牛肉嘅方法。牛隻經屠宰之後,肌肉會逐漸變得僵硬。經過 6-12 小時之後,就真係死到直一直,硬一硬。人工嘅拍打,化學添加濟嘅軟法,係有一定嘅作用。但最自然,最原汁原味,莫過於利用牛肉本身嘅天然酵素,分解肌肉纖維之間嘅聯系。除咗令牛肉更加嫩,因為以上化學作用,牛肉會更有肉(風)味,鬆散嘅纖維,令肉汁更可緊鎖喺肉裡面。
熟成所需嘅時間,係大約 20 至 45 天之間不等。視乎環境(溫度、濕度、肉嘅部位及大小)而定。我朋友足足用咗三個星期去「提鍊」佢塊肉。然後晨早八點就起身,用焗爐以慢火去燒。攝氏 80 度嘅低溫,燒足十個小時有多,足以燒熟塊原條牛肉。「熟成」加「慢燒」,令塊肉可以份外嫩口之外,更能增加肉味,保持肉汁。比起上次去港畔餐廳食嗰塊燒和牛,仲要好味。好食到唔記得影相… 哈哈哈… 激死!
