重要なメモ

⚠️

Using thick-cut steaks (about 1.5 inches) is crucial as it allows enough time to form a good crust before the inside overcooks.

⚠️

A completely dry surface is the key to achieving a deep brown sear rather than a steamed, grey exterior.

⚠️

Freezing the steaks makes the exterior cold and firm, which protects the interior from overcooking during the high-heat searing process.

⚠️

The wire rack is important because as the salt draws out moisture, the rack prevents the steaks from sitting in that liquid and becoming soggy.
