Food – The Steak Stone
Words: Violet
Dinner party planned and looking to throw some unique entertainment into the mix without the hassle of planning something for hours? It’s time you invested in a well-designed grilling stone and make cooking a fine cut of steak part of the dining entertainment.
Not only are they the talk of the town amongst foodies at the moment but they also bring back nostalgic memories of après-skiing, dining in a fire lit cabin with cheese fondue on the go.
Steakstones are every man’s culinary best friend. You’ll all agree, gentleman, that nothing beats a juicy sirloin steak on your plate. On the flip-side, nothing could be more of a culinary failure thank an under-cooked or over-cooked steak. There’s a slim-line between steak flop and steak finesse, particularly when you are serving up for a room full of friends who all want their cuts cooked differently according to individual taste.
If steak is on the menu then a grilling slab is the perfect solution to these kitchen dilemmas. Like a mobile teppanyaki, but without the fire loving, egg-throwing Japanese chef, steakstones can be placed in the centre of the table so that your guests can prepare and cook their own meats on the hot stone.
How do they work? The sizzling stone sears in all the natural flavours and allows you to enjoy cooking every mouthful exactly as you like, ensuring the last bite is as hot and delicious as the first. You can throw any meat onto the stone, as well as sear tuna and grill scallops and garlic king prawns.
Got a craving yet? ??As well as being a fun dinner party addition, by bringing the cooking to the table for all to enjoy you can cut down the hours you spend in the kitchen and actually get a look into the pre-dinner drinks that you’re hosting for once. Just put some new potatoes on the boil, whip up a few fresh salads, slice up some crusty bread and cook a whole Camembert in the oven for a couple of minutes leaving the stage for you to kick back and entertain in style knowing that your guests will leave a few hours later in high spirits satisfied and impressed.
Bon appetite. To buy visit steakstones.com
