Which should I cook first: steak or ground beef?
It might seem like a strange question, but I’m curious about the flavors that linger. I’m planning to have steak for dinner tonight and ground beef for lunch tomorrow, and I’ve been wondering which one would be better to cook first for optimal flavor enhancement.
It’s not a weird question at all! When it comes to cooking steak and ground beef, the order can definitely influence the flavors.
If you’re looking for optimal flavor enhancement, it might be best to cook the steak first. Cooking the steak will create some delicious browned bits (fond) that can be left behind in the pan. If you’re using the same pan for the ground beef afterward, those bits can add a lot of depth and richness to the ground beef, enhancing its flavor.
Just make sure to deglaze the pan with a bit of broth, wine, or even water after cooking the steak to lift those tasty bits before cooking the ground beef. This way, you can incorporate those flavors into your lunch for a delicious meal tomorrow. Happy cooking!
