The flavors are a balance of savory, rich, and slightly acidic, with a hint of spice and a smooth, creamy texture.
The primary flavor comes from the high-quality, finely minced raw beef, offering a rich, meaty taste. This is complemented by the sharpness of onions or shallots, the tang of capers and pickles, the richness of egg yolk or mayonnaise, and the heat of mustard or Worcestershire sauce. Salt, pepper, and sometimes hot sauce are used to further season the dish, creating a complex and balanced flavor profile.

Source the Best Beef
Only use beef from a reputable butcher or source that guarantees its freshness and safety for raw consumption. Look for lean cuts with minimal fat and sinew.
Keep it Cold
Maintain the beef at a cold temperature throughout the preparation process to prevent bacterial growth. Use chilled bowls and utensils.
Consider Pasteurization
If you are concerned about safety, consider using pasteurized egg yolks or mayonnaise to minimize the risk of salmonella.
Eat Immediately
Consume the steak tartare as soon as it's prepared. Don't let it sit at room temperature for an extended period.
