28 Day Salt Dry Age 🧂

28 Day Salt Dry Age 🧂

Dry aging is very different than “dry brining” and “curing”. With dry aging, protein is exposed to just air (no salt), and chemical changes improve tenderness as well as flavor.

In this experiment I completely covered a prime grade strip roast in kosher salt. My assumption (concern) was that any and all moisture would escape, leaving us with desiccated and dry beef. However, the results were very different.

The beef appeared to be dry aged perfectly! While it was slightly less juicy than a fresh steak (dry aged steaks often are), the flavor was perfect and there was no need for added salt. While I don’t think it necessarily tasted “better” than a traditionally dry aged steak, it was an interesting lesson in understanding how salt affects beef over extended periods of time - something I’m sure will be useful in future experiments.

Well, salt was used as a preservative back then when refrigerators doesn't exist. it kills all the bacteria from the meat to prevent it from rotting

This is how most meats were kept before refrigeration and especially on sea fairing ships. So basically you’re eating Pirate Booty Steak.

*dry ages beef*
"I was shocked to find what looked like perfectly dry aged beef"

You can use the pellicles to make a beef stock, in beef stew, or make ground beef for burgers.

Fun fact: salt breaks down protein bond resulting in more tender meat and make it easier for our body to digest the meat.

[timtarbet]

Hey, wait! I thought this was called curing! That’s what you said when I asked you about doing this on one of your other dry aging videos! 🤣

In South Africa we call this biltong. Instead we let it air dry in the winter during hunting season. Different spice blends can be added 🇿🇦

This is the channel I didn't know I needed. I just love watching it!

That deeply seasoned flavor is from the salt and aging. It causes the beef flavor to become much more intense.

“I was shocked to see good meat” as it looks every time he dry cures lol

[WATERMELON-WORLD-EDITS]

I always wonder when I watch people dry aging meat what the exact process entails. Like, how does the meat not go bad after a month?

[JanatCalifornia]

Omg unbeknownst to me, my mom and grandma taught me to cook with dry aged meat. I’m Kazakh (Central Asian), it’s our cultural cuisine to preserve meat by dry aging. We add cumin, ground /minced garlic, coarse salt (heavy), ground (roughly) coriander and maybe some black /red pepper.I just leave it in the back of the refrigerator on lower shelves and just use it to cook throughout the month without worrying that it would spoil if I don’t use it up. But the real aging took place at my grandma’s farm house. They had a cold room just for meat and dairy. She would only use salt, dry it on a rack until it bleeds out and then just keep it in a linen sack for years. The longer it stays the more exquisite taste it develops. Kazakhs, we call it “sur yet” (aged meat). Especially the raw horse sausages aged for over 2 years 🤤🤤🤤
Omg, just thinking about it 🤤🤤🤤

“I had no seasoning” then puts tons of butter and herbs, and saying in the end “ It was deeply seasoned” 😂😂😂
