The Chef's Tip

00:00The secret lies in three principles: the right temperature, timing, and resting.

00:35Prepare each element cold. The meat comes out of the fridge thirty minutes beforehand.

01:15The heat must be controlled. Never rush the cooking.

01:50The plate is built like a composition. Each color, each texture has its place.

02:20Wagyu is ready when its sheen disappears under a light crust.

02:55Serve immediately. The meat should never wait.

Ingredients

2 × 200 gWagyu fillet
30 gUnsalted butter
to tasteFleur de sel
to tasteFreshly ground pepper
2Crushed garlic cloves
2 sprigsFresh thyme
1 sprigFresh rosemary
1 tbspGrapeseed oil

Preparation

01
Take the Wagyu fillets out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking so they return to room temperature.
02
Pat the fillets dry with paper towel: a perfectly dry surface is essential for a beautiful crust.
03
Season generously with fleur de sel and freshly ground pepper on both sides.
04
Heat a cast iron skillet until smoking. Add a drizzle of oil.
05
Place the fillets without moving them. Sear for 90 seconds on the first side.
06
Flip, add butter, crushed garlic, and herbs. Continuously baste with the foaming butter for 60 to 90 seconds.
07
Remove the fillets from the pan and let them rest for 5 minutes on a warm plate — this step is crucial.
08
Slice against the grain and serve immediately, topped with the herb butter.
