Garlic Beefsteak with Mushrooms and Béchamel Sauce

Ingredients:

Steak:

2 beef steaks (such as ribeye or sirloin), about 1-inch thick

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh rosemary sprigs (for garnish)

Mushrooms:

1 cup mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini or button)

1 tablespoon butter

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt to taste

Béchamel Sauce:

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups milk

Salt and white pepper to taste

A pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Instructions:

Prepare the Steak:

Season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper.

In a skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the steaks to the skillet and cook to your desired doneness, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness.

Remove steaks from the skillet and let them rest.

Cook the Mushrooms:

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

Add the sliced mushrooms and the second clove of minced garlic, sautéing until the mushrooms are golden and tender.

Season with salt to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

Make the Béchamel Sauce:

In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

Whisk in the flour and cook for about 2 minutes without letting it brown.

Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly to prevent any lumps from forming.

Continue to cook and stir until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Season with salt, white pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg if desired. Remove from heat.

Assemble the Dish:

Place the rested steaks on a warm plate.

Top the steaks with the sautéed mushrooms.

Pour the warm béchamel sauce over the steaks and mushrooms.

Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.

I like that there's all this detail that goes into the description of Arthur and staking Lucy (or rather, the Bloofer Lady, because that's not Lucy anymore), and then for the rest of it it's just 'then we cut her head off and filled the mouth with garlic and sealed it up and off we went'. Like, that part isn't the important bit, because the undead has been killed, Lucy's soul has been freed, what's left is just the body, what happens now doesn't matter anymore. Arthur knows what they're going to do, Van Helsing asked for permission before, he doesn't need to be there to witness that, and neither do we, I guess.

Heck, Seward doesn't even say 'we cut off HER head'. He says 'we cut off THE head and filled the mouth with garlic'. That's not Lucy anymore. Lucy is gone.

Goodnight, Lucy. I hope you're at peace now. There's still work to do, but at least you're beyond Dracula's reach and can rest.

#dracula #dracula daily #dracula daily 2: vampire boogaloo #lucy westenra #:( Im gonna miss her. she was a great character. #even knowing what was coming it was still easy to hope that this time it would be different #...at least they left her head presumably on top of her neck #and its not like garlic cloves are huge if you break them apart from the bulb #it doesn't matter and I know it doesn't matter #but still. better to picture that then to picture anything else.

first time making focaccia ^.^

#i was making vegan tofu noodle soup for my love cuz he wasnt feeling well:( #and decided to try and make some focaccia cuz i had a bit of thyme leftover and a few garlic cloves and felt like baking something! #next time i would use a good quality extra v olive oil (i only had a mix of olive and canola) #i would use more garlic (only had 2 cloves left) and replace the thyme with some rosemary #we ate the other half before i remembered to take a pic :P #baking #focaccia #me #strangecomfort

We tend to mostly watch food shows in this household, and every time Iberico ham comes up in whatever show we're watching (Choped, Buzzfeed's Worth It, Master Chef, whatever)- I get a terrible flashback to the time @pissyeti came home from the cheese shop with an entire Iberico leg bone.

We made stock out of it, because what else are you going to do with a $99 leg bone? Except we threw it in a crock pot overnight; this was before we had an instantpot. It made the whole house smell like ham water.

The whole house just. Smacked of ham.

We ended up making the most amazing soup out of it (oranges, guajllo chiles, coffee, brisket), but my god. Imagine the dog-food qualities of prosciutto, intensified a thousandfold, permeating your clothes and skin. That inescapable porcine essence, suffusing your soul for days. An umami-bomb nightmare.

Anyway, Iberico itself is a strange thing- this is the wagyu of pigs, fed an exclusive diet of acorns- and the taste is distinctly lemony on top of the layered complexity of cured meat. Good shit; if you have access to buy it by the pound, try a slice or two.

Just- don't make stock in the crockpot unless you're prepared for the consequences.

#nattering #now we have an instantpot and it makes everything so much easier #food #1 rotisserie chicken carcass 1 onion 2 carrots 2 cloves garlic Celery if you have it Dill if you're not a coward or Ginger #40 minutes under normal pressure; strain; serve with cayenne and a squeeze of lemon or freeze for future soup #i'm nose blind; my wife is hypersensitive to smell #it's an awkward combination sometimes

You like spicy food

Nope! Food is the only aspect of my life I don't like spicy 😆

Send me an assumption - I will confirm or deny

#athena was asked #I am a very sensitive soul #mild is sometimes too hot for me #extra mild please #but garlic is my friend #I put way more garlic in everything than anyone else does #when a recipe says 2 cloves I put a whole head #but pepper spice is not for me #if there's spicy food at restaurant I order seven beverages to get through one meal #I am entirely dramatic about it too #HOOOOTTTTTTT

Things that will keep me from agreeing to become a vampire:

Intense love of garlic.

#used 1 1/2 bulbs in dinner tonight. #bulbs. not cloves. #we all love garlic in the sauce and on the bread and everywhere yay #vampire #gonna have to pass. bummer though.

went to the farmers market near my mom's new place and got "ugly mushrooms" $10 for a pound and I'm making risotto with hella shiitakes and oyster mushrooms and white wine and thyme and caramelized shallots while it thunderstorms outside (1) you wish you were me (2) I'm emailing tastey tastey risotto to you all right now. with my mind

#YES i had half a glass of white wine while cooking on an empty stomach & Yes i can feel it but MAINLY i feel the emotion of 7 cloves garlic #it's a beautiful emotion come share it with me #the mushrooms were called ugly bc they were a little less fresh and needed to be used within 2-3 days but they were beautiful. to me

when a recipe requires garlic, that automatically means the whole bulb to me. no questions asked.

#'add 2 cloves of garlic' #nope that's not how it works in my household #half is the furthest i can compromise #other than that #the whole thing goes in #ramblings
