Ben Greenfield: I Let A Master Chef Take Over My Kitchen (And She Brought The Rarest Beef?!)
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Try Piedmontese Fassone beef – A rare, lean Italian beef variety used in raw (tartare), meatball (polpettone), and quick-cooked preparations.
- Cook Fassone differently – Due to its leanness, adjust cooking times (shorter than conventional beef) and methods (e.g., quick tomato sauce simmer for meatballs).
- Explore Italian-French fusion – Adapt classic dishes like beef bourguignon to Italian ingredients (e.g., using Chianti wine for “beef Chianti”).
Products & Gear Mentioned
- Manzo beef – Specific brand of Piedmontese Fassone beef mentioned (search “Manzo” on bengreenfieldlife.com for podcast details).
Notable Quotes
“This meat is so lean, it cooks really quickly… just makes a couple of tweaks in the cooking.”
