Notes

Here are my secrets to SUPER TENDER Beef:

The first one is baking soda. I got this secret from a good friend who works at a Chinese restaurant; it is honestly a game-changer. No more eating tough beef at home, and hello to juicy, tender, silky beef!
The second tip is cutting against the grain. Always cut against the grain, so the meat doesn’t become over chewy. With this tip, it doesn’t matter what type of steak you get; it will turn out perfect every time!
