What is Beef Ribeye?
The rib Eye is the beef of the rib of the cow which is found between the 12th or 6th rib. The most unique aspect of it is marbling, the stripes of fat in the meat, which are melted during cooking, and shape a tender and juicy steak. This is the natural fat in the ribeye, which makes ribeye its trademark flavor and feel of butter.
Ribeye is not a leaner cut, such as the sirloin or tenderloin, but a less active muscle that is naturally tender and works well with high-heat cooking techniques, such as grilling, pan-searing or broiling.
The beef ribeye cuts at Al Farah Restaurant AE are very selective to guarantee our customers high quality, full-flavoured and texture.
Why Ribeye is the King of Steaks
Juiciness and Flavor
Ribeye steak is also very sought after because of its juicy right and rich taste. The fat contained in the meat melts into the intramuscular cavity in the process of cooking, bathing the meat, making it tender and more delicious. This renders each bite juicy and delicious.
Versatility in Cooking
Ribeye can either be grilled, pan-seared or broiled without its texture or flavor being lost. It has a higher amount of fat and thus it is more forgiving than leaner fats meaning that it will not be dry and tough.
Perfect for Special Occasions
Ribeye is a type of meat that is mainly used during celebrations, date night, or special dinners. It is a masterpiece in any dining table due to its elegant flavor and mouth feel which adds more to the whole experience.
Nutritional Value of Ribeye
Although ribeye is fatty and hedonistic, it also has useful nutrients in moderate consumption:
- Protein: Ribeye is an excellent protein rich in good quality that is required to build up muscles, repair them, and maintain the health of the body.
- Iron and Zinc: These are minerals that help in the formation of red blood cells and improve immunity.
- B-Vitamins: Ribeye has vitamin B12 and other B vitamins as needed by the body to supply energy and nerve impairment.
- Healthy Fats: The marbling gives fats that are beneficial in satiety and taste.
Tip: To balance the richness and healthiness, serve ribeye with grilled vegetables, salads or light sides.
How to Cook the Perfect Ribeye
To those who love steak, and wish to savor ribeye at the comfort of their homes, the following are tips on how to cook it:
- Bring Steak to Room Temperature: Ensures even cooking and eliminates under cooked centers.
