FLORENTINE STEAK (BISTECCA ALLA FIORENTINA) - HISTORY AND RECIPE
The Florentine steak (called Bistecca alla Fiorentina or simply La Bistecca) is a serious matter in Florence, no jokes with the Ciccia (meat in Florentine slang)! The Tuscan cuisine has plenty of delicious dishes, but if you must choose only one of them, as your last meal, opt for La Bistecca!

Steps:
- First of all, you have to know that the perfect dry hanging is by resting the entire loin in a fresh and dry place before cutting.
- Therefore, it would be better buy dry hanging meat directly from your butcher. If you need to make it at home, wrap each steak in single cheesecloth.
- Now, place the steak in the lower part of the refrigerator for up to 4 days, well separated on a rack. Change the cheesecloth once a day.
- Finally, analyze analyze carefully the meat before consuming. It have to be darker, with a stronger smell, with not trace of ammonia smell that suggest a wrong maturation.
- If you can, prepare the grill with coal or wood embers.
- Alternatively use an electric grill or a cast iron griddle. You can get great results also with a soapstone griddle.
- Heat very well the surface chosen to cook the steak. Place the Porterhouse steak standing on the bone to warm the interior and soften the fat fiber. Continue for 15 minutes in this way.
- Now, heat at a very high temperature about 5 minutes per side without moving the meat.
- This step is particularly delicate: the surface of the meat should roast very well without burning, finding the right temperature depending on the tools at available.
- Let the steak rest in a warm place (e.g. an oven previously heated then turned off) for about 10-15 minutes: in this way, the fiber of the meat will relax themselves redistributing the juices and retaining the flavors into the steak.
- Serve the Florentine Steak after sprinkling it with cooking salt and prepare yourself for a huge meal!
