Learn how to perfect the art of searing as Chef Travis shows you how to cook a steak using a cast iron skillet.


WATCH



What you will need:

Steak - Chef uses a New York Striploin due to its high fat content however any steak will work. Ensure you bring the steak to room temperature before cooking. 

Salt & Pepper

2 Tbsp Butter 

Oil - Even when heated past its smoke point, a high quality olive oil such as Zoë produces low levels of harmful compounds and does not affect the flavour of your meal, smoke given off is normal from this stable oil.

Cast Iron -12" Blacklock Cast Iron Skillet

I like to use EVOO for the fat content and stability, and the butter for flavour. Olive oil is the most stable oil to cook with, even when heated past its smoke point it produces low levels of harmful compounds due to the high antioxidant content in the oil. In summary the smoke from the olive oil is normal, safe and does not affect the taste.
