Raw Beef "Piedmont Style"
(
Toretta di Carne Cruda)
Adapted from Robert Donna by StarChefs

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 24 Ounces beef tenderloin, finely diced
  • 1 cucumber, cleaned, thinly sliced (6 ounces)
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup button mushrooms, diced

Dressing

  • 5 tablespoons lemon juice (2 lemons)
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons fresh Italian parsely, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, smashed, finely chopped

    To prepare:
    In a medium mixing bowl, combine ingredients for dressing; mix well using a whisk. Take 1/4 of the sauce and set aside. Add beef to remaining mixture and blend well, using hands.

    Use a ring or form 3" wide x 1 1/2" high to mix ingredients for this recipe. Place the ring on serving plate. Take 10 cucumber slices and layer along bottom of mold; add 1/2 teaspoon of mixture, top with 3 teaspoons mushrooms; push down to compact. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of mixture, then add a second layer of cucumbers, ten slices, and press down. Add meat, forming a 2 1/2" layer. As you add meat, slide form up to mold meat; press down on meat to compact. Add 3 tablespoons of cheese and continue to slide form off top, leaving a colorful, compacted layer of vegetables and meat. Repeat process for each serving.

    Make sure to put enough dressing in between layers of meat, vegetable and cheese as you build the tower.
